Black Bread
1/2 cup water 1 oz unsweetened chocolate 2 tsp granulated sugar 1 1/2 cups warm water 1 pkg (1 tbsp) active dry yeast 1/2 cup molasses 2 to 4 tablespoons vegetable oil 1 tbsp each caraway and dill seeds 1 tsp fennel seeds 1 tsp salt 3 cups rye flour approximately 3 cups all-purpose or whole-wheat flour
In small saucepan, heat 1/2 cup water and chocolate, stirring until chocolate is melted. Remove from heat. Let cool to lukewarm.
In large mixing bowl, dissolve sugar in 1 1/2 cups warm water; sprinkle yeast over and let stand for 10 minutes or until frothy. Stir in cooled chocolate mixture, molasses, oil, seeds, salt and rye flour. Beat until smooth. Stir in enough of all-purpose flour to form soft dough.
Turn onto lightly floured surface; knead for 8 to 10 minutes until smooth and elastic. Place in well-greased bowl, turning to grease all over. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in warm draft-free place until doubled in bulk, about 1 1/2 hours.
Punch down; divide in half. Shape into 2 6-inch round or 12-inch long loaves. Place on greased baking sheets and press lightly to flatten bottoms. Cover with tea towels and let rise until doubled in bulk, about 1 hour. Bake in 400F oven for 30 minutes or until loaves sound hollow when tapped.
