Cook Time 40 minutes
Total Time 50 minutes

Ingredients
  

  • 500 ml buttermilk at room temperature
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tbsp sugar
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 150 g rye flour
  • 250+100 g whole wheat flour

Instructions
 

  • In a big bowl mix together the buttermilk, baking soda, salt, sugar and olive oil. Mix until mixture will rise (about 2-3 minutes).
  • Add the rye flour and 250g of whole wheat flour.
  • Mix everything together, then add about half of the 100g of whole wheat flour and keep mix it. I used a tablespoon. The dough will be sticky, don’t worry.
  • Spread the rest of the flour on the work surface and dump the dough. Use your hands to form a dough into cylindrical shape, then flatten the dough into about 1 inch thick.
  • Transfer the bread to a baking sheet, covered with parchment paper or Teflon sheet and make diagonal cuts on the top of the bread. Bake at 400 degrees for 35-40 minutes. Check for readiness with a wooden stick. Transfer the bread to the surface, cover with a kitchen towel and let it cool completely.
