Darnitsky bread with caraway seeds
4 servings
150 minutes
Darnitsky bread with cumin is a fragrant and aromatic representative of Ukrainian cuisine, combining rye and wheat flour. This bread has a rich taste with a subtle sweetness of honey and the spicy bitterness of cumin that makes it special. Historically, Darnitsky bread was popular during the Soviet era when it was valued for its nutritional value and long shelf life. It pairs well with soups, meat cuts, and cheeses, and is also perfect for making sandwiches. Thanks to a special malt brewing technology, the bread acquires a soft texture and expressive color. It is made in a bread maker, and adding cumin at the final stage helps preserve its unique aroma. This bread is a symbol of comfort and traditions passed down through generations.
