--------  ------------  --------------------------------
   4      cups          unsifted rye flour
   3      cups          unsifted white flour
   1      teaspoon      sugar
   2      teaspoons     salt
   2      cups          whole bran cereal
   2      tablespoons   caraway seed -- crushed
   2      teaspoons     instant coffee
   2      teaspoons     onion powder
     1/2  teaspoon      fennel seed -- crushed
   2      packages      active dry yeast
   2 1/2  cups          water
     1/4  cup           vinegar
     1/4  cup           dark molasses
   1      square        unsweetened chocolate
     1/4  cup           margarine
   1      teaspoon      cornstarch
     1/2  cup           cold water

     Combine rye and white flours. In a large bowl thoroughly mix 2 1/3 
cups flour mixture, sugar, salt, cereal, caraway seed, coffee, onion 
powder, fennel seed and undissolved yeast. Combine 2 1/2 cups water, 
vinegar, molasses, chocolate and margarine in a saucepan. Over low heat, 
heat until liquids are very warm (120-130F). Margarine and chocolate do 
not need to melt. Gradually add to dry ingredients and beat 2 minutes at 
medium speed of electric mixer, scraping bowl occasionally. Stir in 
enough additional flour mixture to make a soft dough. Turn out onto 
lightly floured board. Cover; let rest 15 minutes. Then knead until 
smooth and elastic, about 10 to 15 minutes (dough may be sticky). Place 
in greased bowl, turning to grease top. Cover; let rise in warm place, 
free from draft, until doubled in bulk, about 1 hour.
     Punch dough down; turn onto lightly floured board. Divide in half. 
Shape each half into a ball about 5" in diameter. Place each ball in the 
center of a greased 8" round cake pan. Cover; let rise in warm place, 
free from draft, until doubled in bulk, about 1 hour. Bake at 350F for 
45 to 50 minutes, or until done. Meanwhile, combine cornstarch and cold 
water. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until mixture starts 
to boil; continue to cook, stirring constantly, for 1 minute. As soon as 
bread is baked, brush cornstarch mixture over top of loaves. Return bread 
to oven and bake 2 to 3 minutes longer, or until glaze is set. Remove from 
pans and cool on wire racks.

NOTES : When doubling this recipe, I also double the rising times. The 
longer you let it rise the bigger and the fluffier the loaves.
