Dissolve yeast in warm water. In a large bowl combine milk, sugar,
and salt. Use a mixer to beat in molasses, butter, yeast mixture and
1 cup of rye flour. Use a wooden spoon to mix in the remaining rye
flour. Add white flour by stirring until the dough is stiff enough
to knead. Knead 5 to 10 minutes, adding flour as needed. If the
dough sticks to your hands or the board add more flour. Cover dough
and let rise 1 1 1/2 hours or until double. Punch down dough and
divide to form 2 round loaves. Let loaves rise on a greased baking
sheet until double, about 1 1/2 hours. Preheat oven to 375F. Bake
for 30 to 35 minutes. Makes 2 round loaves.
