We've created this delicious Sourdough Bread using the Sourdough Starter recipe and the Dualit Hand Mixer.
Ingredients
- 400g strong bread flour
- 1 tsp salt
- 150g or 3 tbsp Sourdough Starter
- 250ml warm water
Method
- In a jug mix the Sourdough Starter and water until dissolved.
- Place all the flour into a large bowl, create a well in the middle and pour in the starter mixture.
- Using the dough hook attachments on the Hand Mixer, mix until just combined - for sourdough you want to knead the dough mostly by hand.
- Using your hand or a spatula, keep turning the dough into the middle of the bowl. This will be a little sticky as the dough is quite wet. Using a spatula allows you to easily take the dough from the side of the bowl and push it down into the middle. Do this for five minutes until the dough starts to look shiny and smooth.
- Cover the bowl in a plastic bag or place in a warm covered container for two hours to proof.
- Lightly flour your work surface, remove and place down the dough. Pull and stretch the dough continually folding it into itself. Do this several times and place back into the bowl.
- Return to the warm environment for three hours, ensuring to stretch and fold the dough every half hour, six times in total. This can be done inside the bowl rather than getting back out onto the surface and folding with your hands.
- For the last rise, line a bread tin with baking parchment and lightly flour. Stretch and fold the dough, place in the tin with the dough's "seam" or "fold" on the bottom. The dough should look very smooth at this point.
- Cover and leave to rise in a very warm place as before.
- Pre heat your oven to 240°C/220°C fan assisted. Turn down the oven 10°C/20°C before placing the dough in.
- Remove the cover, then cover the tin loosely with foil. Place into the oven for 20 minutes.
- Remove the foil and place back into the oven for another 20 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Allow the bread to cool completely before slicing.
