I LOVE RYE BREAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
How weird, I found a recipe recently for 'Finnish Rye' and found myself wondering if Mervi would know about this, but suspecting Mervi didn't bake bread. I must be psychic!
Mervi I don't know the word leipäjuuri but I think a generic term for it in English would be 'sourdough starter' (it's probably a specific type though)
Anyhoo I tried the Finnish Bread recipe and it didn't turn out so great for me..... it did mention using some dried bread as a starter and nah I didn't have any Finnish Rye Bread on hand.. but I often make this rye sourdough bread from a German recipe which works great and I had some starter for that in the fridge so I used that.
Sooooo, maybe you DO need the specific FRB one to be successful..... I bet you can get it somewhere on the internet - they sell dried sourdough starter for other things (although I've never used them)
Atthis yum I'd love to see your Swedish pastries recipes!
