Sourdough Bread

Sourdough Bread is one if the oldest bread there is, made out of sourdough starter-which I have the recipe in my blog with no discard.
This bread is a slow process bread, so be ready to have a window of two days to make this bread. But other than that it's easy and it doesn't require lots of kneading. Enjoy!!!

Ingredients:
  • 120 grams of active sourdough starter
  • 310 grams of lukewarm water
  • 500 grams of AP flour
  • 16 grams of salt

Instructions:

-In a bowl, add the sourdough starter and the water. Mix it well before adding in the flour.

-Cover the dough with a wet towel for an hour.

-After the hour is over, stretch and fold every 15 minutes.

-Repeat the process for 5 to 6 times.

-Transfer the dough to a clean bowl to rest for 6-12 hours.

-Once done resting, place and flour your dough on your counter to start shaping.

-Place a cotton cloth over your bowl and place your dough on the cloth up-side down.

-Put the bowl in the fridge for 12-36 hours to slow the rise.

-Wait for the bread to cool down completely.
