Recipe of Jamie Oliver Sourdough Bread

Hello everybody, hope you’re having an amazing day today. Today, I’m gonna show you how to prepare a special dish, sourdough bread. It is one of my favorites. This time, I will make it a little bit tasty. This is gonna smell and look delicious.

Sourdough Bread is one of the most favored of recent trending foods on earth. It is appreciated by millions every day. It is easy, it is fast, it tastes yummy. Sourdough Bread is something which I have loved my entire life. They are nice and they look fantastic.

To get started with this recipe, we have to first prepare a few ingredients. You can have sourdough bread using 6 ingredients and 15 steps. Here is how you cook that.

The ingredients needed to make Sourdough Bread:

1. Take 8 oz "Fed" Sourdough Starter
2. Get 12 oz warm water (100-110F)
3. Take 2 tsp active dry yeast
4. Prepare 1/2 oz sugar
5. Make ready 2 1/2 tsp salt
6. Prepare 21 1/4 oz all-purpose flour (or bread flour)

Steps to make Sourdough Bread:

1. Combine all ingredients in mixer. (Referred to as "straight dough method")
2. Ensure to scrape down sides of bowl to ensure all ingredients get incorporated.
3. With dough hook, mix on medium low speed (2 or 3 depending on mixer) for about 8-12 minutes until a nice soft dough ball forms. This develops gluten in the bread. Dough should pull away from sides of bowl (known as cleanup stage)
4. Dough should be tacky feeling. If it seems to tacky, add small Mounts of flour a little at a time while kneeding. Don't add to much extra
5. Note: I add more starter than what recipe calls for; I put about 10-12 ounces of starter based on how I feel, how my starter smells and looks, and just because I can, I started adding more on occasion to experiment to see how different the bread turns out. To me a little more starter makes bread turn out better. Feel free to give it a go if you feel daring.
6. Place dough into a large lightly greased bowl and tightly cover with plastic wrap.
7. Allow dough to rise until doubled in bulk, about 90 minutes.
8. Gently divide dough in two. It will deflate a little.
9. Gently shape the dough into two oval loaves, or for longed loaves, two 10" to 11" logs or baguettes. Place on a lightly greased or parchment lined baking sheet. Cover and let rise until very puffy, about 1 hour,
10. Note: I used two cloche to do bread in. This is a stone container that will give that stone oven bake to the bread and gives a great crust to it. I make my two logs and place in stone cloche then cover for the second rise. After rise I remove top, cut my slashes on top And lightly spray water from a spray bottle then recover for the bake. This creates a steam that helps develop bread and crust.
11. Preheat oven to 425°F.
12. Spray loaves with lukewarm water. Cut 2 or 3 slashes diagonal across top. Don't go to deep
13. Bake bread 25-30 minutes. If using cloche, uncover for last 5 minutes of bake to allow crust to be one a deep golden brown
14. Remove from oven and cool on rack before cutting
15. Enjoy!!!
