Mustard & Cheese Bread


Prep Time: 15 minutes

Cook Time: twenty minutes

Total Time: 35 minutes

Ingredients:

one (1/4 ounce) package active dried yeast (about one Tablespoon)
1-1/4 cups warm water (110 F/45C)
1-3/4 cups rye flour
two cups bread flour
one teaspoon salt
one Tablespoon vegetable oil
6 Tablespoons whole-grain mustard
1-1/2 cups (6 ounces) shredded Emmenthaler cheese
three Tablespoons chopped parsley
one teaspoon black mustard seeds

Preparation:

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. (220 degrees C.).


Dissolve yeast in 1/4 cup of the water; let stand five minutes until frothy. Put flours & salt in to a large bowl; make a well in the middle. Add yeast mixture, remaining water & oil & mix to a soft dough.


Knead on a lightly floured surface about five minutes or until smooth & elastic. Put in to a neat bowl, cover with a damp cloth & let rise in a warm place 1-1/2 to two hours or until doubled in size.

Punch down dough. Knead dough two minutes, then roll in to a 12-inch square. Spread with mustard, then sprinkle with cheese & parsley.

Roll up like a jellyroll & place, seam side down, on a floured baking sheet; brush with water & sprinkle with mustard seeds.

Bake ten minutes; reduce temperature to 400 degrees F. (205 degrees C.) & bake twenty minutes or until bread sounds hollow when tapped underneath. Icy on a wire rack.

Variation: Use one cup light beer in lieu of one cup of the water.

Yield: one loaf
