Fresh-Milled Sourdough with White Wheat

This recipe is my go-to recipe for our daily sandwiches and toast because it is just so healthy. With the fresh-milled flour and sourdough, you know you are getting the best nutrition bread can offer! And you do not compromise on flavor with this recipe at all!

Ingredients

Method

Turn cooking mode on

1.

First mix the active sourdough starter with the water until it’s dissolved in the water. Add the water mixture to the flour (and gluten flour if using) and using a danish dough whisk, dough scraper, or your hands combine it until there is no dry flour left.

440 g Water

100 g Active sourdough starter

300 g Fresh milled hard white wheat flour

300 g Fresh milled soft white wheat flour

24 g Gluten flour

2.

Cover and let that fermentolyse for 1 hour.

3.

After 1 hour add in the salt and hand knead for 3 minutes. Then rest for 15 minutes.

15 g Salt

4.

Perform the 1st stretch and fold, cover, and let rest 30 minutes.

5.

Perform the 2nd stretch and fold, cover, and let rest 30 minutes.

6.

Perform the 3rd stretch and fold, cover, and let rest 30 minutes.

7.

Perform the 4th stretch and fold, cover, and let rest 15 minutes.

8.

Pre-Shape and rest 15 minutes.

9.

Final Shape, place in a floured Banneton, cover Banneton with a plastic wrap, shower cap or something similar and put in the fridge for a cold proof up to 24 hours. See note 1.

Rice flour

10.

When ready to bake preheat your oven with the dutch oven to 500℉. Leave your dough in the fridge until the very last minute – placing a cold dough into a hot oven will give you a better 'spring'.

11.

When oven is preheated take your dough out of the fridge and gently invert it onto parchment paper.

12.

Score your dough with a lame, clean razor, or sharp knife. The main score should be between 1/4-1/2″ deep and if you are doing decorative scoring it will be closer to 1/4″. Keep in mind you will get better with practice.

13.

Using the parchment as a 'handle' lift your scored dough and carefully place it in your preheated dutch oven. Using a spray bottle do a few spritzes of water before putting the lid on. Turn the oven temperature down to 450℉ and bake for 30 minutes. Place a baking sheet on the lower rack to 'shield' the dutch oven so your crust doesn’t over-bake or burn.

14.

Remove the dutch oven lid, turn oven down to 400℉ and bake for another 25 minutes. For even browning turn the bread half way through the last 25 minutes. If checking the internal temperature it should be around 205-210°F. Remove from oven and place bread on a cooling rack.

15.

Cool COMPLETELY before slicing. If you cut into it while it’s warm it will be gummy.

If Baking Same Day

1.

Follow steps 1-8 and Final Shape, place in a floured Banneton, cover Banneton with a plastic wrap, shower cap or something similar and let bulk ferment on the counter at room temperature 4-6 hours until dough has risen by 70-80%. This time will vary based on the temperature of your home.

2.

Bake as directed above in steps 10-15. Disregard any mention of the refrigerator in those steps.

Notes

This may seem different without a bulk fermentation step, but the bulk fermentation technically starts when the starter is added to the flour and water. So the bulk fermentation in this recipe starts right away and goes through the folds. It still is bulk fermenting in the fridge until it completely cools down to the fridge temperature.
