Kit (Alberta) says:
Added 3 teaspoons each of fennel seeds and caraway seeds and these loaves turned out so nice! Chewy with a delicate sweetness.

This makes a very large dough. Almost too large for my large Kitchen Aid mixer. Will try halving the recipe next time.

Wonderful, easy method flavourful bread. My mom was Finnish and never had a formal recipe for a very similar bread. She went by feel as she made it. No accurate measurements. Sometimes when I made it, it turned out heavy. Used this recipe 3 times and delicious perfect bread every time :)
