Bread Plate

Ingredients

• Coarsely Ground Rye Flour 20 oz
• Wheat Flour 5 oz
• Water 10 fl oz
• Salt 0 oz
• Vegetable Oil to taste

Step-by-Step Guide

Step 1

Combine the rye and wheat flour with salt, gradually add water, and knead into a firm dough.

Step 2

Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and leave it at room temperature for 30 minutes.

Step 3

Roll out the dough to a thickness of 1.5 mm.

Step 4

Grease a clay pot or another heatproof dish with vegetable oil. Place the dough in the pot, pressing it firmly against the sides, and trim off any excess.

Step 5

Prick the dough with a fork; the holes will close up during baking.

Step 6

Add the dry beans (you can line the pot with parchment paper beforehand) and place the pot in the oven preheated to 390°F for 15–20 minutes.

Step 7

Take the cooked plate out of the pot, pouring out the beans first, and brush it with an egg. Return it to the oven for 2 minutes.
