Sourdough Bread
There will be no doubt if we say that 2020 was the year of the Sourdough starters.
It takes time to get master of it.
When you get it mastered, it will be worth the effort.
It is the best homemade recipe.
So without wasting time, let’s have a look at the best homemade recipe.
Serving: 8 persons
Ingredients to Make Sourdough Bread:
330 ml Water
8-10 grams Salt
150 grams Starter
460 grams White flour
(with a protein level of at least 11.5%)
How to Make Homemade Sourdough Bread:
First, make the starter; for this, in a clean jar, add the 80g of flour, 40g of seed starter and, 80g of water and mix well. After that, place it in a warm place. It will be get doubled after 4-6 hours, in case if it will be active enough. The total weight of the starter will be 200g.
The leftover starter can be used later if it was stored in the refrigerator; before placing it in the refrigerator, mix it with fresh flour and water.
Make sure to use the starter when it is thick and airy and not in a runny position. Because when- the starter becomes extra acidic, it will be difficult to deal with it, as it will lose up its own elasticity and turn in sloppy condition.
Autolyze
To get started, the autolyze state, take a large bowl mix the 330g of water and 460g of flour. To develop the glutens in the flour, simply mix the water and flour and set it for a while.
To form the shaggy dough ball, use the wet hands to mix it. Cover the bowl with the plate and leave it to rest.
Start this step at least 30 minutes before the starter has finished rising.
Folding
- In the autolyzed dough, add the doubled sourdough starter and the salt, and mix it with the help of wet hands. Place it in a flatter glass.
- By using the coil, fold every 30 minutes, stretch and fold this dough. Your dough may stretch back after each fold, which is normal.
- Now leave the dough on the bench to sit for until it has bulked out by 50%. It will become much fuller heavier. You can take it anywhere from 2-6 hours depending on the room temperature. To stop the drying, cover the dish with a plate.
This step is very important; you need to watch the dough that it has bulked enough.
Shaping
- Line a banneton basket with a towel and flour it well.
- Tip your dough carefully on a very lightly floured work surface and gently form it into a rectangle.
- Fold the bottom third of the dough, so it meets the middle. Fold the right side bottom of the dough to meet the middle.
Repeat the same process from the left bottom side.
Now it will become the shape of the ball.
Grab a small amount of dough from the top left and top right and pull them to meet in the center.
Carry this down the length of the dough.
Toll the dough ball gently towards you on the counter.
Cold proof
Place dough in a bowl covered with a floured kitchen towel and let sit in the refrigerator for 8 to 20 hours.
Baking
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit; place cast iron pot inside the oven while heating.
- When the oven is at temperature, flour the bottom of the cast iron and remove the dough from the refrigerator and flip the dough carefully into the cast iron pot.
- Bake in the pot covered with a lid for 20-35 minutes. Let the sourdough cool before slicing.
