Description
A crusty, tangy loaf with an open crumb, perfect for butter, soups, or sandwiches, made in just one day.
Ingredients
Scale
- 500g all-purpose flour
- 350ml warm water
- 100g active sourdough starter
- 10g salt
Instructions
- Combine the flour and salt in a large bowl. In a separate bowl, mix the warm water with the sourdough starter until dissolved.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until a shaggy dough forms. Turn it out onto a floured surface and Knead for about 10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
- Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover, and let it rise for about 4–6 hours until doubled in size. Preheat the oven to 450°F (230°C) about 30 minutes before baking.
- Shape the dough into a round loaf and place on parchment paper. Remove the hot Dutch oven, place the dough inside, cover, and bake for 30 minutes, then uncover and bake for an additional 15–20 minutes until golden brown.
- Cool on a wire rack for at least 30 minutes before slicing.
Notes
Use an active starter and weigh your ingredients for the best results. If the dough is too sticky, dust lightly with flour.
