Advertisement

🥖 Yields: 1 standard loaf (9×5-inch pan)
Total Time: About 24 hours (including fermentation & proofing)

Ingredients

  • 100g active sourdough starter (fed and bubbly)
  • 375g warm water (about 80-85°F)
  • 11g Himalayan salt (or any fine salt)
  • 550g bread flour (or all-purpose flour)
  • (Optional) 15g honey or olive oil for a softer texture

Step-by-Step Instructions

1️⃣ Mix the Dough (Autolyse) – Night Before Baking

  1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 375g warm water and 100g active sourdough starter until milky.
  2. Add 550g flour and mix with a spoon or hands until no dry spots remain (it will be shaggy). Let it rest for 30-45 minutes to allow the flour to absorb water.

2️⃣ Add Salt & Strengthen the Dough
