The other day, I shared my sourdough bread recipe to a slow drink team mate from Terra Madre Americas. I thought it's good to have it on Hive blockchain, as an immutable sourdough bread recipe 😁
How to Make Sourdough Starter
It takes about five days to make your starter from scratch. Each day, add about 20g of whole wheat flour and 10–15g of water, keeping the texture fairly firm rather than runny like Lievito Madre. You'll see nice bubbles after 5 days.
Whole wheat flour helps fermentation start more easily, while too much water can cause mold to develop.
Basic Sourdough Bread Recipe
Ingredients 1:
60g sourdough starter
40g whole wheat flour
40g water
Ingredients 2:
300g bread flour
200g water
9g salt
1 tbsp olive oil
Instructions
Starting from building the levain. Mix all ingredients from Ingredients 1 in a bowl. Let it rest at room temperature for 3–6 hours until active and bubbly.
Add the flour, water, and salt except for the olive oil from Ingredients 2 to the levain (1) and mix until everything is combined and no dry flour remains. Once the dough has roughly come together, pour the olive oil onto the bottom/sides of the bowl and fold the dough over it, gradually working the oil into the dough with a few stretches and folds.
Leave the dough at room temperature and fold or knead it gently every 30–60 minutes. When the dough has risen to about 1.5 times its original size, transfer it into a floured proofing basket. It takes 3-6 hours in my place up to the temperature/season.
Cover and refrigerate the dough for at least 12 hours or overnight. Don't worry, it's quite flexible :)
Preheat your oven to 220°C. When it’s ready, lower the temperature to 200°C. Take the dough out of the fridge, score the top, and bake. If your oven has a steam function, use it. If not & if your oven is tolerant to steam (be careful my mother broke her modern one with micro controllers ...), place 2 ice cubes on the baking tray to create steam. If using a Dutch oven (Staub, etc.), bake for 20 minutes with the lid on, then remove the lid and bake another 10–20 minutes until nicely browned.
Arranging the Basic Recipe
You can make your own by changing the flour in Ingredients 2 to rye, whole wheat, nut, dried fruit, spices etc and adjust the amount of water. Fig and walnut, raisin and walnut with a bit of rye flour are combinations I like.
Happy baking 😊
