Instructions

  1. Stir the yeast with the honey until smooth. Add all other ingredients and stir well. At least 2 hours, preferably half a day or overnight.
  2. Then knead again and fill in two bread baking molds, a large roaster without a lid or two small baking dishes.
  3. Bake in the oven preheated to 250 ° C for approx. 20 minutes on the middle rack. Turn the temperature down to 200 ° C and bake for another 30-40 minutes.
  4. After baking, cover with a wet towel and let cool down.
  5. Note: Sugar couleur is only used to color the bread (black bread), but has no effect on the taste. I therefore mostly do without it.

About Editorial Staff

The Boss Kitchen editorial staff oversees content review, fact-checking, and recipe verification across the site. Published articles pass through the editorial team before going live, ensuring ingredient lists, techniques, cooking times, and nutritional claims hold up in a home kitchen. The team coordinates contributions across the site writers, handles reader corrections, and maintains consistency in measurement conventions, safety guidance, and dietary labeling. Posts under this byline typically represent team-reviewed reference material, site announcements, or editorial roundups rather than individual-author features, and they are held to the same sourcing standards as bylined recipe and product coverage.
