Rye, Dill & Mustard Bread

Try this wonderful bread in your machine. I love this bread either toasted or for sandwiches. Fresh dill would be preferred but I know that’s not always possible. This is a light, flavorful bread.


One Pound Loaf
2/3 cup water + 1 1/2 Tbs.* 1/2 cup rye flour
2 tsp. Dijon mustard 2 Tbs. dry milk powder
1 Tbs. butter, soft 2 tsp. sugar
1 tsp. salt 3/4 - 1 tsp. dill weed
1 1/2 cups bread flour 1 1/2 tsp. dry yeast
