Just a quick write-up because I'm tired, but I also don't want to forget. Again.
Barley-Rye Sourdough
Ingredients
- 100% flour: 80% hard whole wheat, 10% rye, 10% barley
- 65% water
- 20% active (ripe/fed) starter (100% hydration)
- 4% honey
- 2% salt
Directions
- Feed your starter and make sure it's nice and active.
- Combine whole wheat flour and water. Mix well, cover, and let stand for 1-12 hours.
- Add the starter and honey and work them into the dough.
- Add the salt and work it in as well.
- Use the rye and barley flour to generously flour the work surface and turn the dough out onto it.
- Knead in the remaining flour.
- Once the flour has been worked in, wet your hands and try to work in a little more water if you can.
- Place dough in covered bowl and set aside to ferment. Rising time will vary depending on room temperature and starter activity.
- Knock dough back and shape as desired.
- Cover and allow to rise again (either at room temperature or in the fridge).
- Bake at 230°C (450°F) with steam for the first 15 minutes, then remove steam pan and reduce heat to 180°C (350°F) and bake until done (usually ~20 minutes for my standard sized loaves, but will vary depending on loaf shape and size and how well-proofed it was).
