Medieval Rye Levain (Plain)

Unit Price: $5.84/quarter loafξ Bobolink's medieval rye levains are baked as huge 6 pound rounds (also known as miche), and are sold as both whole and 1/4 loaves. This bread has a hearty crust, and a flavor tinged with the earthy tang of rye. Bobolink's breads are made from regionally-grown organic grains and other local ingredients. They are slow-risen with natural starters (a bit of yeast is added in a few of the styles), and baked in Bobolink's wood-fired oven. The combination of slow fermentation and intense heat during baking gives their breads excellent flavor and an extended shelf-life at room temperature. Made with whole wheat, whole rye, whole oats, starter, and salt. The wedge weighs approximately 1.5 lbs
