[What is Ginseng]

In terms of modern scientific research, ginseng is known to be an adaptogen. Adaptogens are substances that assist the body to restore itself to health and work without side effects even if the recommended dose is widely exceeded.

Ginseng due to its adaptogens effects is widely used to lower cholesterol, increase energy and endurance, reduce fatique and effects of stress and prevent infections.

Ginseng is one of the most effective antiaging supplements. It can alleviate some major effects of aging, such as degeneration of the blood system, and increase mental and physical capacity.

Other important benefits of ginseng is its support in cancer treatment and its effects on sports performance.

Danish Rye Bread Recipe

Ingredients for the starter-dough:
- 1 dl of sourdough
- 350-400 grams of rye flour
- 4 dl of water

Ingredients for rye bread (preferably organic):
- Rye flour
- 250 grams of unsoaked cracked rye (should be soaked from day 1)
- 1-2 handfuls of seeds (sunflower seeds, flax seeds, pumpkin seeds or other similar)
- 1 spoonfull of salt
- 1-2 spoonfulls of malt sirup (or dark sirup or honey)
- Water (adjust if the dough becomes too dry)

I hope that the process is understandable once you have watched the video a couple of times and got familiar with the processes!

Please comment and share with your friends!

Update – September 2015:

If the final bread is too sticky or too difficult to get right, then try adding a handfull of wheat flour to the dough (not the starter-dough) along with the cracked rye, seeds, salt, malt sirup and water. Then adjust the consistency using rye flour as explained in the video.

I have also found out that letting the starter-dough mature in the refrigerator for 1-3 days gives a more complex flavour in the final loaf. Additionally it prolongs the shelf-life of the loaf.

Letting the dough rise in the refrigerator for 24 hours instead of overnight also improves the flavour by increasing the acidity to a pleasant amount and by improving the complexity of flavours.

I hope you find these tips useful and keep baking and enjoying the bread!

Thank you, Anders
