Zubereitung von Authentic German Black Bread Schwarzbrot

In a large bowl, combine 1000g cracked rye grain, 500g water, 200g active sourdough starter, and 25g salt.
Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are well combined. The dough will be very sticky.
Cover the bowl with a damp cloth and let it rise in a warm place (ideally 75-80°F) for 12-14 hours, or until almost doubled in size.
Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C). Place a Dutch oven inside the preheated oven to heat up.
Gently transfer the dough into the hot Dutch oven. Score the top of the dough with a sharp knife or lame.
Cover the Dutch oven and bake for 60 minutes.
Reduce the oven temperature to 400°F (204°C), remove the lid, and continue baking for another 50-60 minutes, or until the crust is deeply browned and the internal temperature reaches 200-210°F (93-99°C).
Remove the bread from the Dutch oven and let it cool completely on a wire rack before slicing and serving.
