Genuine New Mexico Roadrunner that I caught wandering around the apartment in Albuquerque in 2012. Was not able to get too close unfortunately and was using a point & shoot.

09/14/2020 4 Grain Rye
4 grain rye....sesame, fennel, caraway , poppy...2 tablespoons each in a 1.5 pound loaf (1.5 cups rye + 1.5 cups unbleached white bread flour) with brown sugar to feed the yeast. This one came out great! LOVE all the seeds! Next time I think I'll try either honey or molasses rather than the brown sugar and see what that does.

09/02/2020 Partially Failed Experiment
I thought I could take the whole wheat 3 seed recipe and use rye flour and maybe it would rise a little more or a little less but nothing dramatic. Well...I was wrong...managed to get about half the rise. It tastes great...wonderful crust and not overly dense but I can see that I probably should take a rye recipe as the base if I don't want a midget 1.5 pound loaf. This would be really good as a desert bread if I added some fruit.
