Good Sourdough Bread - START TO FINISH

"Good Sourdough Bread" is my master sourdough bread recipe that I make almost every week. This bread is made mostly of white bread flour, and it's at 70% hydration, which means it's in the middle between low-hydration and high-hydration. There are no fancy steps, like "autolyse" or "bassinage" in this method. It's just a simple, no-nonsense process where you mix all the ingredients together in the bowl at the same time. For 18 more creative sourdough recipes with no unnecessary steps and no complicated terminology, check out my ebook, No-Nonsense Sourdough. Get the ebook here: grantbakes.com/no-nonsense-so...

    Vad ca ai simplificat mult tehnica de preparare a painii. Fara autoliza,ai pus faina direct in amestecul de apa,sare si starter. Nu faci framantare ,doar 2-3 SF,nu laminare,nu coil folds! Si in plus,lasi banetonul descoperit in frigider! Care e explicatia? Chiar sunt inutile manevrele de care am pomenit?12:52

    This video is absolutely the best way to make sourdough bread. I have studied just about every sourdough recipe on line and although many are satisfactory, none compare to the simplicity that yours does. Most recipes want you to go through so many ridiculous steps. Many want you to waste time with autolysing and various other things that make sourdough a chore rather than an enjoyable experience. Thank you Grant for this video and keeping it simple.

He shows, describes and provides the timing for every step of the way. The result is a beautiful looking loaf. His sourdough starter video is also the best I have found; clear and concise. I now have the confidence to create my own masterpiece. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.

    Things I love about this method: no wasting/discarding of starter No autolyse (I can never mix the salt through evenly) Lovely hydration level combined with the right amount of messing about with it during bulk fermentation, meaning end loaf is light in structure but still able to hold melted cheese/honey (for example)! The huge holes of higher hydrations just render the bread practically useless for us! Thank you, Grant - I look forward to switching to this method ...

    I grew my own starter beginning in May 2021. I've been experimenting with sourdough bread ever since. I've been baking for decades, but never sourdough. This was the biggest baking challenge I've had since I began baking as a young woman in the 1960's ... LOL. I got good at making a sourdough bread in a loaf pan following a recipe/method with a gal I found here on KZread. I wanted to make one in a cast iron pot, where it goes into a basket and overnight in the fridge. Hubby wanted one with a chewy texture. I wasn't having much success with my first 2 round loaves. I over proofed the first one and it was not edible. The second one was edible, but was still dense / heavy and a little doughy. We ate it toasted good and brown, but it did have a good flavor. Then I found this video with Grant Bakes. Today I was successful!! Baked my loaf this morning and had it with dinner. Beautiful spring and delicious!! A big "Thank You" to Grant Bakes!!! YEAH!

    I had a ROUGH weekend with sourdough. I made my starter 10 days ago, it seems strong, it doubles in a few hours and had beautiful bubbles and smells amazing. The first day I think it was too cold in my house and the recipe I was following never allowed the first rise so nothing ever really happened. The second day, I thought because it was so cold we would warm up the house so it was about 82 but the dough after 9 hours or so was almost liquid. I am desperate to make sourdough, so your recipe and detailed instructions are going to be my next try. I thought I could start the first rise tonight and let it work overnight but now that I am reading your instructions, that isn't going to happen. So I will feed my started good tonight and begin super early tomorrow morning. I am praying this recipe is as easy as you show.

    Absolutely loved watching this video. First I’ve seen with clear and simple instructions that I-as a novice sourdough baker can understand! I made a loaf yesterday but although it tastes good and has the flavour it should, it was a bitter disappointment as was so flat and so very hard to handle. It virtually “gave itself up” when I placed it on the baking tray-I have no Dutch oven. I shall follow this step by step next week when I have another go. Thank you. 12:33

    I've been baking sourdough for a couple months and have seen many videos, some good and did learn from them. Watching you now for a couple of weeks and officially doing prep day today and bake day tomorrow with your guidance. Super easy and informative learning from you Grant, thank you.

    Thank you for this recipes and video. I've made a few sourdough loaves but yours has by far been the best! I didn't overnight proof, I just let rise for about 3 hours before baking and it was perfect! Best oven spring I've had by far of any recipe I've tried. This is going to be a go to recipe for me!!

  • @GrantBakes

    @GrantBakes

    3 жыл бұрын

    Thanks! I'm glad you find the tutorial helpful. It's going to be somewhat of a sticky dough no matter what, but if you're dough is looking very different than mine at shaping time, then you could try giving the dough more sets of stretch and folds during the bulk fermentation period. I recommend 3 sets, but you could try 5 sets. It will help build more gluten development in the dough and should be easier to shape. Also having flour on the table really helps me when I'm working with stickier doughs. But if you're finding it's still too sticky, consider lowering the water in the recipe. Maybe 275 grams instead of 300. This will lower the hydration of the dough and make it easier to handle. It will still be great 👍🏻

    I have tried other web-videos for successful sourdough bread. Totally frustrated for the last three years, I almost gave up trying; then, I stumbled across Grant's user-friendly method. I figured nothing ventured, nothing gained. The first loaf was a stunning success! Then, the proof is in the second trial: does it repeat? YES! I probably did not work it quite the same for development of the skin; but success breeds confidence! This recipe/system really works. THANKS!!
