Description
A simple, flavorful sourdough sandwich bread that enhances every meal with its lovely crust and soft crumb.
Ingredients
- 65 grams active sourdough starter
- 300 grams lukewarm water
- 12 grams salt
- 14 grams sugar
- 15 grams oil (avocado or olive)
- 400 grams bread flour
- 100 grams all-purpose flour
Instructions
- Combine the active sourdough starter with lukewarm water, sugar, and oil in a large bowl.
- Gradually add the bread flour and all-purpose flour, mixing until no dry particles remain.
- Sprinkle in the salt, mixing it thoroughly into the dough.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for about 10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
- Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover loosely, and let it rise in a warm area for 4-6 hours or until doubled in size.
- Deflate the dough and turn it onto a floured surface. Shape it into a loaf.
- Transfer the loaf to a greased bread pan, cover, and allow it to rise for another 2-3 hours.
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and bake for 30-35 minutes until golden brown and hollow-sounding when tapped.
- Cool the bread on a wire rack before slicing.
Notes
Ensure sourdough starter is fed 4-8 hours before starting the recipe. Use a kitchen scale for precise measurements.
