    IMPORTANT NOTE:
    You need to use flour with a high protein content to achieve the same results. I am using a non-speciality all-purpose flour with a protein content of 13.2%
    The protein content is very important as it contributes to building the gluten in the bread. You will not have the same result if you use a low protein flour such as 10% or 11%. For this recipe, I would not use flour with a protein content under 12.5%, but would ideally suggest flour in the region of 13%
    You can normally find the protein listed on the side of the bag in the nutritional details
    If you use flour with a lower protein content then you will probably find the dough is very wet and sticky and will not develop the gluten network required to hold the shape.
    There is no kneading as time will build the gluten network. There is also no reason to keep folding this dough. The final hydration is 71% and makes for very manageable bread dough. Please note that depending on the flour you use the “stickiness” may vary.
    My kitchen temp was in the region of 16-18c.
    My starter is fed at a ratio of 1:1:1 (Starter / water / flour) and therefore remains at 100% hydration making future recipe calculation easy. The flour is divided into 75% white flour and 25% wholewheat flour. Again, if you have any questions let me know in the comments.
    My banneton size: 25cm across the top length, 15cm across the top width, and 8cm deep. This was advertised as 500g banneton but for my use, I find 750g works best. My recipe works out to 762g which fits perfectly!
    Scheduling
    You can use the fridge to put the “brakes” on your baking schedule. For example, you could mix your dough at 17.00 and complete through to the end of the bulk ferment before going to bed at 23.00. In this case, you could cover your dough well, I normally use a plastic supermarket bag, and then pop it in the fridge overnight. The next day you would let the dough come back to room temperature and the shape and place it in the proofing basket.
    You can also refrigerate the dough while it is in the proofing basket and hold it overnight. Just remember that you will need to flour your basket very well as the dough may have more of a tendency to stick.
    You can bake your dough directly from the fridge with excellent results. There is no need to let it come back to room temperature.

      I have never noticed that before, that’s so interesting. The bag I used for my starter is a generic all purpose, and doesn’t have a protein value. Another bag I have has 11.7. I will keep an eye out for a higher protein flour in the future. There are so many videos out there for sour dough starters. I picked one and am on day four of the feeding. I haven’t discarded yet. But when I am ready to bake, I am going to try your recipe and baking methods. Although now I see that I may not yield the same results, but it’s my first go, soooooo....what the heck...caution to the wind!

    • @CulinaryExploration
      @CulinaryExploration  4 роки тому +14

      You'll need to decrease the amount of water to make the dough manageable but you wont be able to develop the same gluten structure unfortunately. It depends how low the protein content is. I am just finishing a video on a simple all purpose low protein flour bread, it isn't sourdough it's a bakers sandwich style loaf. Thanks for watching and following up!

Suddenly people are taking their dough's temperature every 10 minutes, reading it a bedtime story and tucking it in bed at night before they spend 97 hours making one single loaf of bread. I had no idea the sourdough world was so exclusive and Looney.

    After watching this video over 50 times while making this bread, I decided to type out the directions to make it easier. Hope this helps someone! PS. This recipe is awesome!!!
    247g water & 12 g sea salt combined in medium bowl until dissolved
    128g starter (100% hydration) added to same bowl. Stir to combine
    375g All Purpose flour added, and mixed by hand, clawing at sides until it becomes shaggy mass
    Cover bowl with plastic and let sit for 1-2 hours
    Scrape onto clean counter (no flour). Fold all 4 sides then turn and form into tight ball.*Use wet fingers if too sticky
    Put into bowl and cover with plastic wrap for 4-5 hours
    Using bowl scraper, scrape dough onto a clean counter and gently pull out into rectangle shape
    VERY gently, pull and fold over all 4 sides. Roll over so crease side is down on the counter, and let sit for 5 minutes
    Prepare banneton with lots of flour, ensuring all creases are coated.
    Flip your dough back over (crease up), and gently stretch it out to rectangle shape. Then roll/fold towards yourself to make a sausage shape to fit in banneton. Gently tuck and press with your fingers as you roll to form a seal.
    Liberally dust the top with flour, and use bench scraper to get flour underneath.
    Lift and place into banneton to let sit for 2 hours, or overnight in fridge, covered in plastic bag.
    Preheat oven to 482F. Add Dutch Oven and preheat
    Add flour to the top of dough, and swiftly turn the banneton on top of peel with parchment paper *if using.
    Brush off excess flour, and cut with lame desired shape/design.
    Gently lift parchment (if using) and place in Dutch Oven, cover and bake for 20 minutes
    Remove lid and reduce heat to 420F. Bake for additional 15-20 minutes

    I have watched a LOT of bread baking videos (and made an enormous amount of bread myself over the last decade), and this is by far without a questionable doubt the best bread baking tutorial video ever made. It's simple, straight to the point/fast, gives you lots of nice shots of the exterior crust and interior crumb, and gives you the exact recipe information you need. It's just a no B.S. tutorial that hits every single mark perfectly, you're clearly a master baker. I should also mention the crumb structure is absolutely superb, better than 99% of recipes on UA-cam for sourdough, and you do it in so many fewer steps than most people that are capable of that kind of open crumb structure. Absolutely genius.

In the early days we spend all day making our bread trying to follow the techniques that these guys have been using for years..... and when it doesn’t turn out like the picture in the book we get disappointed. This is a great and easy loaf to make, wish I’d tried it years ago.

      So I tried your recipe today, and I still found the dough to be too wet. I’m gonna say that even though you said not to add flour, I still added a 1/4 cup more of flour and it was too wet, not sticky. Could it be coz I’m in a humid country (Philippines?). I couldn’t even shape it. I just plopped it into my Dutch oven. It tasted really good, but I REALLY was aiming for the professional finished look of it.

    Greetings from Los Angeles. Thank you SO MUCH for this recipe. I tried making Joshua Weissman's bread. So complicated and it turned out so dense. I tried a few others who have millions of followers, and the same turnout. Then I stumbled upon your page and OMG YOU are a game changer. The loaf was outstanding. I had 2 pieces for dinner! The oohs and ahs from my family as we sat around stuffing our faces with your glorious bread. I can't thank you enough for a much more simplistic way to make bread. So excited that I finally did it tonight thanks to YOU! Also, thank you for explaining the protein content. I was using a flour at 11.7% before, and today I used a 13% and boy, what a difference it made. I can't wait to try all of your recipes. You are the REAL DEAL! Keep your recipes coming. Very excited to be following you!

  • @PatrickNelissen

    Thanks! One of the best I've ever seen. Especially the 2 ways of cooking. I don't use a DO and it's hard to get good info about temperatures, etc. Glad that you show both ways. Recently I placed lava rocks in a pan at the bottom of my oven and this (+ boiling water) gives a consistent temperature and nice oven spring.

    • @CulinaryExploration
      @CulinaryExploration  4 роки тому

      Thanks for the feedback, really appreciated. Lava rocks are a great way to get steam in to the oven. I have used a heavy duty stainless steel chain coiled up and pre-heated in a baking tray, that works pretty well too. Cheers for watching and sending over your comments :)
