Steps

  • Heat milk, water, and sugar in a saucepan until lukewarm and sugar dissolves.
  • Stir in the yeast and let it sit for 10 minutes until frothy.
  • Combine flours, salt, and caraway seeds in a bowl and create a well.
  • Pour yeast mixture into the well and mix to form a soft dough.
  • Knead the dough on a floured surface for 10 minutes until elastic.
  • Place dough in an oiled bowl, cover, and let rise for 90 minutes.
  • Knock back the dough and knead for one additional minute.
  • Shape into an oval, place on a lined tray, and score the surface.
  • Cover and prove for 50 minutes until doubled in size.
  • Bake at 180°C for 40 minutes until the base sounds hollow when tapped.
  • Cool the loaf for at least 20 minutes before serving.
