𝕃𝕖𝕒𝕣𝕟 ℍ𝕠𝕨 𝕥𝕠 𝕄𝕒𝕜𝕖 𝕊𝕠𝕦𝕣𝕕𝕠𝕦𝕘𝕙 𝕨𝕚𝕥𝕙 𝕄𝕖 ♡ ‼️Don’t forget to watch Episodes 2 & 3 for the entire process! ⚠️ Welcome to my mini-series of the basic sourdough process! This is for everyone who wants to learn how to make your own sourdough 🍞 at home, from a hobby homebaker with no professional training no less 😅 I call this the “sourdough initiation” because we would go through the process step-by-step. It is the most basic framework that had helped me when I first started making sourdough. As a beginner the guidelines were concise and there was not much guesswork involved and I’m the sort who finds comfort in structure and routine, so it worked well for me. Thank you my first teachers @fullproofbaking and @singaporesourdough 🙏 As we progress through this journey, I believe that we will slowly find our way and adapt the process to suit our lifestyle and needs. And that I think, is the greatest beauty of breadmaking 🥰🥰 𝔹𝕒𝕤𝕚𝕔 𝕊𝕠𝕦𝕣𝕕𝕠𝕦𝕘𝕙 ℙ𝕣𝕠𝕔𝕖𝕤𝕤 Autolyse ⬇️ Add levain ⬇️ Add salt ⬇️ Stretch & Fold ⬇️ Lamination ⬇️ Coil folds ⬇️ Shaping ⬇️ Cold retard ⬇️ Bake Today we will cover the first 3 steps. Step 1 is autolysis, which is simply the mixing of 💦 and flour together and letting it sit. This allows the flour to be fully hydrated and gluten bonds will start to develop with no effort on our part 👍 Step 2 is adding your starter to the mixture in step 1 and that would be the start of bulk fermentation. Step 3 is adding salt. With🧂, the gluten will start to tighten which makes the dough stronger to get ready for the rest of the process. At the end of step 3, we should get a nice cohesive dough that is smooth and does not stick to our slightly wet hand. Are we ready for episode 2? . . . . . #Sourdough#homebaking#homemade#guthealth#levainake#bread#bake#artisanbread#explorepage#levain#levitomadre#recipes#homecooking#naturalfermentation#asmr#satisfying#sandwich#bakersoftiktok#sourdoughstarteresourdough#fyp#sourdoughstarter#sweetstiffstarter#bakingtipsandtricks#天然酵母#天然酵母パン - @shebakesourdough
