My recipe for making sourdough bread is here
I have been a fan of making sourdough for about 40 years and whether plain or with added goodies, a sourdough loaf never fails to excite me.
My sourdough recipe is based on what works well for me. I use it when I give sourdough classes where many people have made terrific sourdough.
The recipe includes key tips for making excellent sourdough loaves, including:
-
- making and maintaining a starter
- a standard recipe for sourdough loaves
- handling and understanding the dough
- knowing what to look for at each of the key stages
- shaping
- scoring
- baking
