Russian black bread #3 is now in the record books. Received (by me) with much fanfare. Old adage "third time's a charm" is now confirmed. (or "third time lucky" for you Brits)
Made the recipe using All Bran cereal instead of straight wheat bran. Perfect middle ground between the prior two recipes. Finally got the right texture. And no extra bran in the teeth afterwards! I thought maybe the sugar in the cereal would make the bread sweet. Not at all. It just perfectly rounded out the flavor. I don't personally think of russian black bread as a favorite, but I really like this. Have we arrived "At Pumpernickel"? Hmmm....
The bread fairy has done her work. We'll have to see if Davina agrees.
