1. Add the starter to a large bowl. Mix in warm water and sugar, stirring until dissolved. Add bread flour, oil, and salt. Stir with a dough whisk or wooden spoon until a thick, shaggy dough forms. Flour your hands, and finish mixing dough by hand until all the flour has been absorbed. Cover with a clean, damp kitchen towel and let the dough rest for 30 to 45 minutes.
2. Coax the dough from the bowl and stretch and fold the dough by stretching 4 inches then pushing it down the middle and turning 1/4 until you make a circle. Return the dough to the bowl, cover with a damp towel, and let rise overnight (at least 8-10 hours) until double in size.
3. In the morning, lightly flour your counter top. Remove the dough from the bowl, gently stretching it into a rectangle, then your fingers to dimple the rough to release the air from the dough (as shown in photo). Roll up dough into a log shape. Cover and let the dough rest 10 minutes.
4. Spray bread pan with cooking spray. Tighten the dough log by gently pulling it towards you along the counter top for 5-8". Place it in your loaf pan, seam side down. Cover and let rise for 1-2 hours, until dough has doubled in size. Press the corner edge of the dough in 1/2" and if the indentation remains, it's ready to bake.

NoKnead Sourdough Bread Recipe Baker Bettie

WEBSep 17, 2019 · Mix Dough: In a large mixing bowl, combine 100 grams of ripe starter with 300 grams of water at 90 F (32 C). Mix together until the …

1. Feed Starter: About 24 hours before you want to bake your bread, feed 25 grams of starter with 25 grams of whole wheat flour, 50 grams of unbleached all purpose flour, and 75 grams of filtered water at 90 F (32 C).
2. Float Test: 8-10 hours after feeding your starter gently drop a spoonful of starter in a glass of water. If it floats then it is ready to mix your dough. If it doesn't float, give it a bit more time to get active.
3. Mix Dough: In a large mixing bowl, combine 100 grams of ripe starter with 300 grams of water at 90 F (32 C). Mix together until the starter is distributed in the water. Add 500 grams of unbleached all purpose flour or bread flour on top, followed by 10 grams of fine sea salt or kosher salt. Mix all of the ingredients together until the flour is completely saturated. I like to start with a rubber spatula or a bowl scraper, and then use my hands to finish mixing.
4. Bulk Ferment: Cover the dough with plastic wrap, a shower cap, or a damp kitchen towel and let sit at room temperature (68-72 F, 20-22 C) for 10-12 hours until puffy and full of air. If your room is much warmer, reduce the bulk fermentation time by a few hours.
