Since ancient times, people in Russia love bread and know how to bake it. And today hundreds of recipes traditional for Russia have been preserved. And besides them, in many regions there are also their own varieties of bread. One of such loaves popular everywhere is Borodino. He is loved not only in our country; often those who are forced to live away from their homeland often miss him. You can make such bread in your own kitchen, having an oven, and even better - a bread machine.
The main subtleties of the recipe
Borodino is called a small "brick" of black malt bread with a dark crust and a dense, ripened crumb structure. Also, Borodino's storehouse is always sprinkled with coriander seeds from above, its spicy aroma gives the baking a special charm.
Borodino is essentially rye bread, which means it is made from rye flour. She gives the bread that dark color and sour taste. Also, color and taste are complemented by malt, which is certainly part of the bread. A well-baked "brick" will be with a glossy dense crust. The lower crust should not lag behind the crumb. And the crumb should be elastic, but not sticky. Also, do not expect, opening the lid of the bread maker, that the dough will rise to the very lid and the roll will be high. Rye bread does not rise high, unlike wheat bread, so Borodino buns are usually small.
It is very important to correctly and accurately measure the products for Borodino bread in a bread machine. The recipe is usually given in grams or spoons. Therefore, to weigh flour, malt or bran, a kitchen scale is needed. And for salt, sugar and yeast, you can buy special measuring spoons, which are very easy to measure small quantities of bulk products.
