Description

A delightful sourdough bread infused with tangy dill pickles, creating a crusty loaf filled with flavor and memories.


Ingredients

  • 2 cups sourdough starter
  • 4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup dill pickles, chopped
  • 1 1/2 cups warm water
  • 1 tablespoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1 tablespoon dill weed


Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, combine the sourdough starter, warm water, and sugar. Mix well.
  2. Gradually add the flour, salt, and dill weed to the mixture. Stir until a dough forms.
  3. Fold in the chopped dill pickles until evenly distributed.
  4. Cover the bowl with a damp cloth and let it rise in a warm place for about 240-360 minutes or until doubled in size.
  5. Preheat the oven to 450°F (230°C).
  6. Shape the dough into a loaf and place it on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  7. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the bread sounds hollow when tapped.
  8. Let it cool before slicing.

Notes

Ensure your sourdough starter is active for the best rise. Consider using steam in the oven for a better crust.
