This bread reminds me of those beginning times although qualitatively is superior. I have added a tablespoon of honey but the bread do not taste sweet. It helps instead for the bread to grow more.
Ah, and I forgot again that adding sugars to the bread makes the bread becoming dark faster. Nevertheless, I have not burnt it.
Ingredients:
Preferment :
- 250g bread flour
- 163g water
- 5g salt
- 0.5g fresh yeast
Final dough:
- 250g manitoba flour
- 500g whole wheat flour
- 518g water
- 15g salt
- 10.5g fresh yeast
- 30g honey
- the above preferment
Directions:
- 20:30 (the day before) Make the preferment 12 hours before. Let it sit at 19ºC.
- 8:30 AM Mix the flours and make a short autolyse of 20 minutes
- 8:50 AM Mix all ingredients. As the preferment is not so liquid, cut it in pieces and put them in the mixer one by one.
- 9:00 AM Bulk fermentation 2h. You can do 1 stretch and fold after 1 hour. I was late for this and I did it after 1h30".
