We have set ourselves a quest to try all the rye breads on Clear Flour Bread's list. We started last week with a loaf of their German Rye.
Here's the German Rye which they describe as, "… a hearty and moist whole grain rye with a touch of honey." We describe it as full of rye flavor with an incredible aroma, crust with a bit of chew, and a lovely crumb.
It's a great bread to have with cheese or toasted with a bit of butter and a bit of preserves. We went with apricot!
It also made an appealing base for an open-faced egg salad supper.
Our eggs are chopped with a handy egg cutter (like this one) then mixed with crème fraîche, celery, scallion, curry powder, salt, and a bit of aleppo pepper.
Always ask, because Clear Flour may have a bread that is not on the usual list. They do make seasonal breads, and I think they occasionally make something special, just because they feel like it. That's the beauty of patronizing a small, artisan business.
You'll also find that they can tell you more about each bread than the simple description on the list.
Here is a direct link to the Clear Flour bread list. You can see, we have a bit of eating to do.
Pay attention to when each bread is available and schedule your visits to the bakery around what you want to buy.
