Hey all. I wanted to share my bread with you that I bake everyday. What I’ve noticed is a lot of people follow complicated recipes, no wonder as this is how every YouTuber teaches bread baking. Here is my simplified process:
Mix all ingredients together using hand mixer. I’m using 400g bread flour, 270g water, 70g starter (25g water, 45g flour), 10g salt.
Let it rest for 15 min.
Make dough into a ball and place it into a bowl, covered.
Take it from the bowl after 6 hours, form it into a loaf and put in bread basket.
After resting in bread basket for two hours either bake it or put it into the fridge to bake in the morning.

Couple of clarifying questions:
1. ‘Hand mixer’, one of those things you use to whip up cake batter or ‘by hand’?
2. Just to clarify, no folding, no kneading, just the initial mix and sit?
3. Bake in a Dutch Oven, flop on a baking pan, pizza stone?
4. Time/temp for bake?
Looks nice, I have been tending to look for recipes that don’t consume my day so I’m looking forward to trying this one. Thanks!
That’s been my experience as well. Fancy stuff doesn’t pay off that much in the end, better to use some spices for variety, sometimes add honey, cranberries, change the flour, this sort of stuff. You make a beautiful bread! 🤩

what is the temper of your kitchen?
A gorgeous loaf!
I do something similar, but with a little more water (70% instead of 66%). I also normally do a few easy stretch and folds in the bowl at irregular intervals (no slap and folds or timers). I do it a few times a week since I am home.
Beautiful loaf! I got excited because I thought maybe this was a method I could do to actually make bread on work days lol
Not so, but still a beautiful loaf and simply made, nice work!
Hi. Excellent, thank you for sharing your product recipe and method.
I agree too many complications without addressing the simple necessities of the yeast.
Happy baking

Beautiful bake, and love the photo capture.
I like it, looks like a clam
Beautiful 🤩
It looks so good and I LOVE how easy it is! Can I ask you a queation about your note re: 70g starter (25g water, 45 flour)”?
Do you mean – 70g starter PLUS 25g water and 45 flour? It’s not clear to me exactly how much starter I use for this recipe. Sorry for being dense and appreciate your clarification! 🙏
For someone who is a complete noob with starters, would you be able to detail how the starter is started (hehe) and what steps I need to do before following the above recipe?
Bread looks amazing!
Looks amazing👏🏼😊
