The exception to this loose rule is sourdough rye bread, which is what most bakers who fall in love with rye bread usually end up baking, and which, of course, is a whole other story.

One thing to keep in mind is that this recipe requires you to let the dough sit for 24 hours so you need to plan on that when on making a pizza.
