Bread often holds wondrous cultural, if not psychological import in collective imaginings of community, of peoples, of shared significance. East Coast Deli- or Jewish-Style Ryes are particularly interesting in this regard. In truth, the flour was and is almost always largely wheat. Though whispers of nostalgia, of connection were achieved and have been maintained via tweeks, often ingenious, in process and spice usage. The path I follow employs substantial levain, or starter, as well as caraway to mimic rye's often assertive sour tang. The preponderance of wheat allows for an open textured crumb, quite dissimilar to whole rye, though absolutely a home for any Deli sandwich. This is a decidedly American Bread threshed out across generations and geographies, made for Nanna Abby simply because she asked.
