How to bake Homemade Sourdough Bread - a step by step guide

Step by step process on how to make sourdough bread at home. This is a simple ‘no knead’ method which doesn’t require a good mixer or lots of muscles!! During the time of lockdown I’ve seen lots of people asking about and trying to make sourdough starters and sourdough bread. I’ve been baking at home for a number of years and thought I’d share how I do it. The recipe for this sourdough loaf is really simple. You will need: 400g of flour (either all white or a mixture or different types - I used wholemeal, white and spelt) 10g salt 230ml water 160g sourdough starter (I give a quick explanation on how to make this in this video) I also use extra white flour for dusting, a Pyrex dish with lid for baking (a Dutch oven), tea towel (not fluffy!) Although I use the no knead process here you could actually kneed it if you wanted. Once the dough has been made and shaped and ready to bake - you can store it in the fridge for a few days. This means you can make more than you need and bake each day. If you like this please give a thumbs up! And feel free to comment if you bake your own!!! Jamie
