Mix the sourdough starter, warm water, and molasses in a bowl.
Add the dry mixture and make a sticky dough with a wooden spoon.
Cover the bowl and leave at room temperature for 90 minutes.
Transfer the dough to parchment paper and shape into a round loaf.
Cover and let stand for 45 more minutes.
Bake the bread at 210°C for 15 minutes.
Lower the heat to 185°C and bake for 30 more minutes.
💡 Tip: Rye dough does not stretch like wheat dough; it is normal for it to stay sticky, so do not add extra dry mix.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Slice thinly and serve with cucumber pickles, radish slices, and plant-based spread.
