An Unintentionally Moist Sourdough
Ingredients
For the sponge
- 200g Strong wholemeal flour
- 250ml Water
- Decent chunk of sourdough starter
- 10g Salt
- 180g Strong wholemeal flour
- Mix together the ingredients for the sponge, put in a bag and leave overnight.
- Add the salt and the rest of the flour.
- Knead until smooth.
- Make a round, put in bag and let rise for about an hour.
- Tip out, form into a round and leave to rise for another hour.
- Repeat step 5.
- Deflate, divide into two portions, shape into loaves, put in a bag and leave to prove (I ended up going out and left it for about 8 hours!)
- Bake at the highest possible oven temperature for ~10 minutes then turn down to ~200C for a further 30 minutes.
Here are the loaves before proving.What they look like ready for the oven.
"I ran out of flour."
