- I would argue that when it comes to bread, half (at most) of the final result comes from the recipe. Far more important is handling and process. You Still Need a Recipe… Probably
-
400g Flour
-
400g Starter
-
200g Water
-
10g Salt
-
-
-
Knead until smooth, place in a banneton or bowl and cover with a clean cloth. Allow to rise for a lot longer than you probably think is necessary. I'll often do overnight. Fresh bread in the morning!
-
Preheat the oven to 450. I recommend having either a baking stone or a dutch oven. GENTLY turn out the loaf. It's basically a balloon at this point and we don't want any of the delicious air to escape.
-
Okay I lied, we want SOME of the air to escape. Slash the top all fancy. You can use a lame or sharp knife.
-
BAKE! The amount of time is dependant on the equipment currently in your oven.
-
Once done allow to rest for half an hour
