Oh Yeah Sourdough
1847 Oregon Trail Sourdough Starter I granulated 10 years ago and kept in a jar in the fridge.
Took some out, fed it flour and water for a couple of days, got this frothy, bubbling spongy mess.
Mixed it in with a cup of oatmeal and 50/50 white bread flour with whole wheat flour.
Included a big heaping tablespoon of salt, some olive oil, and sugar.
Formula: 200g sponge, 20g salt, 650g R/O water, 1000g flour
Got this big blob of dough going. No kneading. Just got all the ingredients wet.
Stretched and folded it every 45 minutes, 3 times.
Cut the blob into loaves and let it rise in bread pans for 3 hours.
Snipped a groove in the tops of the loaves with scissors.
Put those loaves in a cold oven and baked them 45 minutes at 375.
Fresh out of the oven, Piping hot at 199 degrees F. Smelled up the whole house.
Lawdy Momma! OH Yeah! Sourdough!
