sourdough only recipe? these loafs look rad! what's your secret? and how do they look on the inside?
I think the secret is baking a fuckton of bread over the past few years. That and the Challenger bread pan, that genuinely upped the appearance and crust texture of my loaves
Yeah, just sourdough, it's the tartine country loaf.
These were a mega-batch, so the ingredients were as follows:
1900g king arthur all purpose 200g whole wheat 600g pretty active, but fridge-cold starter 1400ish grams of water
Autolyse like 20 minutes? Then add 42g table salt mixed with 60ish grams water.
Folded like three or four times over a couple hours, total bulk ferment was maybe 4 hours?
Then I started baking first thing next morning, equating to roughly 18 hours in the fridge
