Finally got round to making sourdough 🤪 #sourdough #starterculture #breadbasket #sourdoughbread #sourdoughbaking #naturallyleavened #wildyeast #foodkjs #kjsfood https://www.bbc.co.uk/food/recipes/how_to_make_sourdough_08213 Ingredients 500g/1lb 2oz strong unbleached white bread flour, plus extra for dusting 300g/10½oz sourdough starter 2 tsp brown sugar 2 tsp salt flavourless oil, for greasing Method Mix together the flour, sourdough starter and 250ml/9fl oz water in a bowl. Add the sugar and salt. Turn out on to a surface and knead for 10 minutes or until the 'windowpane effect' is achieved (where the dough can be stretched until it is so thin that it becomes transparent). Put the dough into a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a damp teatowel and leave to prove for 2½–3 hours. You won't notice as much of a rise in the dough as you would with a normal, yeasted bread and it will take a lot longer. Turn out the dough onto a surface and knock back. Portion the dough into two and shape into two ball-shaped loaves. Flour generously, and place each loaf seam-side up in a bowl, lined with a couche cloth or a heavily-floured teatowel – without the cloth, your loaf will stick in the bowl and you won't be able to turn it out. Leave to prove for a further 2½ hours. Preheat the oven to 230C/210C Fan/Gas 8. Put a few ice cubes or cold water into a baking tin and place in the bottom of the oven to create steam. Turn the loaves out onto a baking tray or hot baking stone. Using a thin sharp knife score two or three times on the top of the loaf and place in the oven. Bake for 35–40 minutes or until a good crust has formed and the loaves sound hollow when tapped on the base. https://www.instagram.com/p/B_IetG7naF9/?igshid=oda3pvdgrat2
