Description
Lazy Baker’s No-Bulk-Fermentation Sourdough Bread is an easy method to create delicious and airy sourdough bread without the need for traditional bulk fermentation.
Ingredients
Scale
- 500g King Arthur Bread Flour
- 100g active sourdough starter (fed and bubbly)
- 350g water, room temperature
- 15g salt
Instructions
- Mix the flour, water, and sourdough starter in a large bowl and let it rest for one hour.
- Add salt and perform stretch and folds over two hours.
- Transfer the dough to a lightly oiled container, cover, and refrigerate for 36 to 48 hours.
- Remove from the fridge, shape the dough, and let it rest for 30 minutes.
- Reshape and proof the dough, optionally resting in the fridge for another 10 to 24 hours.
- Preheat the oven to 450°F (232°C) with a Dutch oven inside for 45 minutes.
- Transfer the dough to the Dutch oven and bake covered for 25 minutes, then uncovered for 35 minutes at 400°F (204°C).
Notes
- Using King Arthur Bread Flour will yield a better texture due to its higher protein content.
- A longer cold fermentation enhances the flavor of the bread.
- The use of a Dutch oven helps create steam, essential for a good rise.
