Sourdough bread 10 different ways

Sheila McDade in Chattanooga here . . . my husband Gary and I lived in Rota, Spain for 3 years when he was in the U.S. Navy and the bread there was SO WONDERFUL. It was better than any bread I have eaten in the states. Every little town had a bakery that provided bread to the people. My favorite had a very thick smooth light-colored crust, and it was dense inside; thick and doughy. It was solely used with a meal that had a broth and used to "sop" as we say here in Tennessee, lol. I must add that we lived in Spain 50 years ago so that bread really made an impression on me! lol I HAVE A QUESTION: What does your mother cook on Sundays when your entire family goes to her home for lunch after church? I cook every Sunday for my children and grandchildren every Sunday too . . . though there are only 6 of us. Thanks for the recipes!

[@jaznjaimee]

I pour 1/4 cup of water into the Dutch oven between the parchment paper and the side of the Dutch oven. The steam creates a beautiful crust 😋

[@tanyak2927]

Thank you for the tip

[@Nicereview763]

I was originally put off by how complicated sourdough seemed but then I watched your simple sourdough video and decided to give it a go. I bought my starter which has been amazing and now we only eat home made bread. I make your artisan loaf as my staple everyday bread but I use a steep sided oval Dutch oven to make it more like a sandwich loaf for slicing. I made your cinnamon raisin bread today and it is one of the tastiest things I have ever eaten. Looking forward to trying some of your other recipes. Thank you.

[@MegM0221]

I do the ice cube thing, not in Dutch oven, but just in the bottom of my oven as soon as I put the bread in. Before homemaking, I worked as a baker in a small bakery, we used to spray our bread intermittently as it baked, especially baguettes. You aren't wrong about the stand mixer taking more than 5 minutes. Even at the bakery, our huge industrial mixers took ten minutes at least, and they were super efficient. My Cuisinart mixer at home is the same. Great video, we have been enjoying the sandwich bread recently, I would love to try the chocolate bread with caraway instead of chocolate chips, like a pumpernickel!

Lisa I just put the Sourdough Brioche into the bread pan and expect to be ready to bake by noon. Really chilly here in Michigan right now. I don't start the wood furnace or gas furnace until the house is down to 65ish...lol I do use a heater in my room at night and bathroom for showers. Frugal, no not really just can live with a cooler home. I also made your Sourdough waffle recipe. I was kinda leary as it had no flour. My son mentioned he wanted Sourdough waffles and your timely recipe came up on my search. He approved of the flavor, texture, etc. I have been making yeast bread the last few months and eating store bought buns. After a couple weeks of fighting gout I realized it was probably the yeast in the breads. My bariatic stomach has reacted to yeast so that is what I started my Sourdough journey. Thank you so much for sharing your recipes.

[@olgamika7734]

Hi Lisa, did you know you don’t have to preheat your Dutch oven. Easier do handle a cold pot. Works just as fine putting your bread in a cold pot with the lid on in your preheated oven. Learned that from Elaine from Foodbod sourdough.

[@erinlikesacornishpasty4703]

I think it really depends on your oven. Mine is old and doesn't heat evenly, so the preheated Dutch oven really helps that oven spring.

[@juliamangum1786]

This is interesting! Mine doesn’t have the same effect at all when it’s not preheated😅

[@planinehuzrtel7663]

In that case a regular steel pot would be the better option as they conduct heat much faster and will help to let rise the bread faster.

[@karencristobal4999]

So would a cast iron Dutch need to be preheated?

[@amberatwood]

Hmm interesting, I'm going to give it a try and see what happens, hoping it will problem solve the rock hard bottom of my loaf.

[@FarmhouseonBoone]

Cover and allow the dough to bulk-ferment until doubled. The timing will vary depending on a lot of factors; temperature of your home, how active and mature your starter is, etc. I usually make this dough in the morning and allow it to rise all day. Shape. Spin dough and pull it toward you multiple times until a ball forms. Leave the dough out for 15-20 minutes uncovered so a skin can develop on the surface of the dough. Turn the dough onto a clean surface and shape by folding the two sides over to the middle, repeating on the other two sides. Place the dough into a floured banneton or bowl lined with a tea towel, seam side up. Second rise for one hour at room temperature, or cover with plastic and proof 12-15 hours in refrigerator.

Does everything made with sourdough starter taste “sour”? I’m curious about the bagels, chocolate bread, English muffins, etc.

[@erinlikesacornishpasty4703]

Well, English muffins should always taste a little "sour" and I think the store bought ones have something added to make them taste that way. I think if you leave your sourdough starter in the fridge it develops a stronger sour taste than if you keep it on the counter and feed it frequently. If your starter is mild then your baked goods won't be so sour.
