AUTHENTIC GERMAN BREAD (BAUERNBROT)
Here is a great recipe for authentic German Sourdough Bread. This bread tastes almost exactly like the bread we buy back home in Bavaria, Germany. There, to this day, they bake their bread in a very old stone oven in the middle of a small village, once every 2 weeks. They bake a whole bunch at once, and then you can buy it and freeze extras until the next baking day. It's the best German bread I know!

Steps:
- First, make the sourdough starter. Crumble the yeast into a large bowl. Whisk in 1 quart of warm water and 2 tablespoons of sugar until dissolved. The water should be just slightly warmer than body temperature. Gradually whisk in 4 cups of flour, continuing to mix until all lumps are gone. Cover with a dish towel, and let sit for 24 hours at room temperature.
- After 24 hours, stir well, cover, and let stand another 24 hours. It will be a thin, light-colored sourdough which is then ready to use.
- In a large bowl, stir together the rye flour, remaining 4 cups of all-purpose flour, salt and sugar. Mix in the sourdough starter using a wooden spoon, then stir in 2 cups of warm water. I transfer the dough to a heavy-duty stand mixer to mix the first couple of minutes, then it can't handle the heavy dough and I start using my hands by turning the dough out onto a floured surface. A clean countertop works best. Knead the dough, adding a few tablespoons of water at a time if it is too stiff. Fold the dough over, pull it apart, whatever you can do to get it kneaded up good. Total kneading time should be 15 to 20 minutes to get a smooth dough. Place the dough in a large bowl, cover, and let rise until doubled, 1 to 2 hours.
- When the dough has risen, scrape it out of the bowl and back onto a floured surface. Knead for about 5 minutes. This is important to activate the gluten. Shape into 1 or 2 long loaves. Place on baking sheets, and let rise for about 1 hour, or until your finger leaves an impression when you poke the bread gently.
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Bake the bread for about 45 minutes for 2 loaves, 1 1/2 hours if you made one big loaf. Don't worry if the crust is dark. The bread will be delicious and so will the crust. Cool completely before cutting. I always freeze half.

BAUERNBROT (GERMAN FARMER BREAD)
German Farmer Bread similar to what is found in when purchasing Bauernbrot in a Bavarian bakery in Germany. Great with butter and cold cuts, or just plain butter. My sons' favorite is with salami and aged "Moon Cheese".

Steps:
- Dissolve yeast in water.
- Knead flour and salt into water mixture creating a smooth dough (Optimal when dough easily comes out of the mixing bowl).
- Let rise in a warm place for 20 min in a covered, greased bowl.
- Place a baking pan in bottom of oven and preheat to 480 Deg F.
- Reknead the dough for a short time and form into a loaf. (or 2, a shorter baking time will result).
- Place on a greased baking sheet (baking stone). Cover with damp cloth and let the dough rest until doubled in height (aprox 30-60 min) Tip: for a nicer crust brush the loaf with buttermilk, yogurt or coffee periodically. Do not let the surface of the dough dry out.
- Place the dough and with its baking sheet in the oven. Then pour some boiling water into the baking sheet that is already in the bottom of the oven. (to quickly create steam in the oven)
- Lower the oven temperature to 430 Deg F.
- Bake the loaf until desired brownness (40-60 min).
- To test for doneness, knock on bottom of loaf. If it produces a hollow sound it is ready to remove from oven and place on cooling rack until cool.

Steps:
- 1. DOUGH: Mix flours, oats, salt, caraway and instant yeast together in a large bowl. Add the sour milk, yogurt and sourdough culture and begin mixing, either with an electric mixer or by hand. Mix until dough forms a ball, adding water if needed. The dough should be slightly sticky.
- 2. Continue kneading, either with the mixer or on a lightly floured board for 5-7 minutes. Let the dough rest for 5 minutes, then knead again for 1 minute. Form into a smooth ball and place in an oiled bowl, turning to coat the top. Cover with a clean dish towel and let rise in a warm place until doubled.
- 3. Turn out onto a lightly floured board and form into a typical long loaf as follows: Degas as little as possible. Pat dough into rectangle. Indent with fingertips down the middle. Fold one third to middle, lengthwise, pulling dough taut on the bottom. Press seam a little to seal. Fold other third to middle (pulling dough taut) and pinch seam closed. Roll over, seam-side down and rock gently while rounding the ends and making loaf longer or fatter, as you wish.
- 4. Place on parchment paper on a baking sheet or cardboard, dust top with flour and let rise until doubled. About 30 minutes before you plan on baking, slash the top with a sharp razor blade at least 1/4 inch deep.
- 5. Heat oven to 500 degrees for 1 hour before baking. Use a baking stone if you have it, according to manufacturer's instructions. Otherwise, place an old pan on the bottom rack and set the second rack in the middle.
- 6. Place the bread on the middle rack (still on the parchment or floured baking pan), pour 2 cups of hot water into the old pan and close the door.
- 7. Using a spray bottle filled with water, spray the sides of the oven after two, five and seven minutes. Turn oven down to 450. Bake for 20 minutes.
- 8. Turn oven down to 350 and bake for another 20 to 30 minutes, or until a temperature probe measures 190-200F or loaf is brown and sounds hollow when tapped. Remove and let cool 2 hours before slicing.
- 9. NOTE: You can purchase sourdough culture online. King Arthur Sourdough Starter, Goldrush Sourdough Starter, or Ed Wood's International Starters can all be purchased online. Or you can obtain a culture sample from a friend or start your own.
FARMER BREAD (BUREBROT)
From A Taste of Switzerland by Sue Style. I've adapted this to work for me; mostly by adding a bit more yeast, a bit less salt, and using bread flour instead of plain white flour. This is a dense, wheaty loaf, great for toasting and topping with some good rustic cheese. Having such a dense structure, it would also be a great dipper for a pot of cheese fondue!

- Pour the flour mixture over the starter but do not stir. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a clean towel and set aside for at least two hours and up to five hours.
- The starter will bubble up a bit through the flour mixture. This long rest will give your loaf a boost of flavor.

- Mix all starter ingredients in a large bowl. Cover the starter with plastic wrap and let it rest on the counter for 24 hours, until very bubbly.
- Using a stand mixer fitted with a dough hook, add all the dough ingredients to the starter, starting with ½ c all purpose flour. Add the remaining all purpose flour as needed to help the dough come together. Knead on the mixer for 1-2 minutes, until a soft and slightly sticky ball of dough forms.* (Alternately, turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead by hand for 5-7 minutes.)
- Shape the kneaded dough into a ball. Cover it with a damp tea towel and let it rise in a warm, draft-free place for roughly 2 hours, until puffy and nearly doubled.
- Knead the dough a couple of times (using added flour on your hands has needed) and shape it into its final round shape, pressing to flatten the round slightly. Place the shaped dough onto a cornmeal-dusted baking sheet. Brush the top of the dough with a little of the egg white mixture and cut a few slices in the top of the dough, using a serrated knife. Let the shaped dough rise in a warm, draft-free place for 40-50 minutes, until puffy.
10 GERMAN BREAD RECIPES YOU CAN MAKE AT HOME
From thespruceeats.com
- German Bauernbrot – Farmer's Bread. This bread's flavor is enhanced by the addition of 1/4 cup sourdough culture to the baker's yeast which is used to help it rise.
- German Vollkornbrot – Whole Rye Bread. This bread is surprisingly easy to bake at home. It is made with 100 percent rye flour and rye berries with some sunflower seeds and fermented with sourdough.
- German Seeded Bread. If you are looking for a dense, whole-grain loaf, this one is about the closest it comes to tasting like a German bakery bread. Based on Peter Reinhart's Whole Grain Bread book, it uses 100 percent whole grains, along with pumpkin, sunflower, and sesame seeds for a dense, moist loaf.
- German Roggenbrot – Sourdough Rye Bread. This weizenmischbrot or light rye bread is made with 45 percent rye flour and 55 percent white flour with an overnight sponge and sourdough starter.
- German Fladenbrot – Turkish Flatbread. Although this is not a German bread, it is found in Turkish stores and kiosks all over Germany. Fladenbrot is a flat white bread, covered with nigella seeds, and has a particular taste not found elsewhere.
- German Brezeln – Soft Pretzels. Now you can have authentic brezeln or pretzels outside of Germany with this recipe. The dough is easy to make and the only tricky step is the lye bath, using food-grade lye.
- German Schwarzwaelder Kruste – Black Forest Bread. This bread is a 20 percent rye mischbrot, or mixed-flour, sourdough bread, very common in southern Germany.
- German Sweet Breads and Rolls. Sweet fillings like jams and fruit are very common in German sweetbreads, and most are flavored with vanilla and lemon zest.
- German Brotchen and Other Rolls and Buns. For breakfast or brunch, there's no treat like fresh German hard rolls known as brotchen. Also known as wecke or semmel, they are to Germany what croissants are to France.
- German Haferflockenbrot – Oatmeal Bread Two Ways. If you are a fan of oatmeal bread, this is the recipe for you. You can enjoy it made with white flour combined with whole-wheat flour or with 100 percent whole-wheat flour.
