Today I am 90 days sober. Over the course of that 90 days, I’ve challenged myself to learn new skills.
A couple of weeks ago, I decided that I’d bake my first ever sourdough loaf. I’m aware that it isn’t perfect, but I’m so proud of myself for sticking through the entire process.
Be well, crusty bunch
For the starter I did a mix of 100g wheat flour and 100g water.
Fed once a day until the rise started to peak a bit earlier, and fed it as needed from there.
Last night I prepped my dough.
555 g bread flour with extra for dusting
345 g lukewarm filtered water
100g active starter
10g sea salt
I set the dough out to bulk ferment, and then did my stretch and folds.
The final proofing was done for 12 hours in the fridge
Thanks for reading
