My first successful Sourdough bread (1 Viewer)

Guys, I know that is all about poker, chips and cards but I can not stop myself. After few fuckups I have finally did good. It is tall, proud and tasty, plus I have made starter myself.

Very nice! We tried a few months ago and let’s just say......well...it didn’t look like that!
Congrats!

Yeah.. The key was to not over work it. I skip 3 session of folding and stretching and just let it rise. No hook, no bread maker, just my hands and old fashioned owen.

Nice loaf! We've been pumping out some big, beautiful boules every week!

 

[DZPoker]

Very much impressed at both results! We gave up and went back to the bread machine. Doesn’t taste as good as well made oven bread...but a whole lot better than OUR made oven bread!!

Where are the edge spots?

Go for the cinnamon rolls. This was for poker last night.

Nice.. How many times you fold?

I do also good cinnamon babka.. Like from Seinfeld... Thanks to YouTube channel Binging with Babish, love that guy.

We usually do 4 or 5 stretch and fold sessions. Mostly depends how the dough looks. Once you can get that "windowpane" sort of look we move on to the bulk rise. We also tend to autolyse the dough beforehand as well, which seems to help.

We did some sourdough cinnamon rolls a couple weeks ago as well. They came out delightful!

anybody use potatoes to get their starter going. Seems like i remember my mom using potatoes....

I had to stop making bread a home. I did the whole starter thing etc but ended up baking almost every day and eating a loaf a day. Not good for the waistline. Nothing better than home made bread...

I stared baking because I miss bread my late father used to bring home when I was little
