Sourdough bread is one of the most delicious, if long to make - bread dishes that are just too yummy and well worth the effort. Served for breakfast, brunch or as a side dish or snack, these are amazing.
What do you need to prepare sourdough bread?
Flour - You can use any grain, however, if you want to make a full and stable loaf, wheat is the right choice, because only wheat has enough gluten to create large air bubbles. White flour isn’t a great choice because even though the outside the bread will look beautiful and full, it will be lacking in nutrients. A combination of white flour and whole wheat flour is recommended for sourdough bread, allowing for a beautiful loaf chock full of nutrients.
Water - It is best to use filtered water when possible. The chlorine can be removed from water by leaving it in an open container for one day.
Glass jar - Select a jar with as big of an opening as possible. Glass is recommended for working with sourdough, but if you can’t find something that would work, you can also use a ceramic or wood container. Do not use plastic or metal, as they expand with the emitted acids.
Bowls, a casserole pot, and an oven – depending on the quantity you want to prepare, you can use bowls, mixing and serving tools made of stainless steel.
