I love the moisture and texture of the dough. I was a little short on sauerkraut so I added a little chopped onion to make up the differenct. I didn't have rye flour so I used graham. It will be even better with rye!!!!! Nice First use as crust for ham/swiss pizza with Recipe # 150357 (Mango Ketchup) as sauce. . -
The beauty of this bread is that it freezes well. I use the bread machine dough cycle, then bake it in the oven, cool it, slice it and freeze it. It's a delicious rye with a slightly tangy flavor and adds a special touch to ruben sandwiches. Thank you Vino Girl. -
This bread was out of this world! We only used 1/2 cup of rye flour. It had a perfect, light rye taste. I think next time I we are going to add more sauerkraut. My family is German so we LOVED LOVED LOVED this bread! A new Christmas tradition for us. I think I might even try this recipe and use all bread flour. Peace & Love -
This bread is fantastic! My mom made this loaf on the dough cycle in the bread machine and then shaped and baked it in the oven. It turned out tender and full of flavor. There is a slight hint of sauerkraut, but you would never guess it if you didn't know it was there. This is my new favorite rye bread.

My husband and I married straight out of college in July of 1992. I work as the Assistant Manager at a wine shop which allows me to drink on the job! (OK, not that much, but it's still a fun job...) Besides helping customers choose wine they will like (and also help with food and wine pairings for their menus), I also get to help with the catering end of the business, so I get to spend a fair amount of time in the kitchen making fun appetizers and beautiful food displays. I also work part-time at the fromagerie next door. So yeah - that means I eat on the job, too. :^D
We live on several peaceful wooded acres on a cute little river in rural NE Wisconsin, with a cranky old-lady Burmese and whatever stray outdoor cats that have decided to adopt us on any given day. The cute puppy in the picture is Jake, our Elhew-bred English Pointer that we brought home on Easter weekend 2007. I've also got 2 painted turtles named Dennis and Fuzz, and a bunch of fish (koi and goldfish, along with the guppies & swordtails in the turtle tank).
I USUALLY eat and cook healthy, but I rarely pass up dessert, either. I do not eat red meat, and try to limit other animal products, too. I love to bake, although I seem to collect a lot of scone and biscotti recipes which I NEVER get around to making. I bake and eat A LOT of cookies and muffins... I almost always reduce the sugar by 1/4 and use whole wheat pastry flour for at least part of the flour. Those two changes do so much to make recipes healthier without compromising taste. I try to reduce fat whenever I can, too, but while I want to eat healthy, I still want to ENJOY what I eat!!!
I seem to give a lot of 4 and 5 star reviews here - I seem to have a pretty good sense of what I like by looking at a recipe before I try it. Thank you to anyone that tries my recipes in return, or photographs them.
