This is how you can make multiple breads (batards and boules) from one single dough. We'll have a closer look at dividing and preshaping in this class. In this case I'll be using my no-knead sourdough recipe as a basis: youtu.be/dl7crk2Nvj8
Recipe for the dough:
- 1000 grams of bread flour
- 700 grams of water (70%) - depends on your flour (see video)
- 200 grams of active sourdough starter (20%)
- 20 grams of salt (2%)
Instructions how to make your starter active:
1. Ready up your sourdough starter on wednesday morning
2. Apply a 10 grams starter, 50 grams flour/water feeding on wednesday morning
3. Apply a 10 grams starter, 50 grams flour/water feeding on wednesday evening
4. Apply a 10 grams starter, 50 grams flour/water feeding on thursday morning
5. Apply a 20 grams starter, 100 grams flour/water feeding on thursday evening
Instructions for the dough:
1. Mix together your main dough except salt, except starter on thursday evening
2. Mix all ingredients together in the morning (salt + starter) on friday morning
3. Wait until dough reached X size increase (see video)
4. Apply a coil fold to the bread
5. Place the dough on your surface
6. Divide the dough into equal parts with a concise movement
7. Preshape the bread
8. Wait until the gluten relaxed again (5-15 minutes)
9. Shape the bread using any method that you like.
10. Proof 30-60 minutes at room temperature
11. Place in fridge over night
12. Bake on saturday morning directly out of the fridge with steam at 230°C for 25 minutes
13. Bake another 15-20 minutes at 230°C until you have the desired color
