High Hydration Sourdough

Ingredients
  

  • 400 grams King Arthur bread flour
  • 50 grams King Arthur Golden Wheat flour
  • 350 grams water
  • 100 grams active Sourdough Starter
  • 10 grams kosher salt

Instructions
 

  • Mix all of the above into a dough and let rest 30 mins. (I use proofing box 80 degrees.)
  • Now start, 3 sets of stretch and folds every 30 mins. (First one-10 folds, second-8, third-6)
  • Let bulk ferment in Cambro container until almost doubled in size. (In my proofer it took 4- 4 1/2 hours)
  • Flip it out onto the counter and with hands scoot into a ball. Rest 30 mins uncovered.
  • Dust a banneton basket with rice flour.
  • Dust the top of dough with bread flour and flip it over.
  • Pull into a square, fold sides in like a letter and roll up.
  • Flip the dough upside down into the banneton.
  • Chill 6-8 hours. (Up to 24 hours)
  • Flip dough out onto parchment, score with a lame.
  • I baked on a steel with a shell. I preheated oven to 500. Then I put the bread in and lowered immediately to 475 for 20 covered.
  • Then, lowered to 450, added a pan below and baked another 20 mins.
