This type of yeast is called in several ways: sourdough, wild yeast, wild natural yeast ... I have prepared this yeast by mixing
Day:
- 100g water 100g of wheat flour and 1 tablespoon brown sugar in a large glass jar. Second day
- After 24 hours add to the mix 100g water and 100g of flour (put whole wheat) and mix again
- We do the same, but 100g water 100g of flour, put it this white.
From fourth day and can be used instead of conventional yeast or replacing part.
This particular bread has only been the yeast, so it takes about 18 hours to do counting from the time when we bake the following ingredients :
- 400 gr. sourdough or natural yeast
- 100 gr.
- mineral water 300 gr. approximately half strength flour teaspoon salt
Development - Remove dough
- mother glass jar and mix with water, we add the flour and knead until combined well in the end we add the salt.
- I did it with love, but we can do with baking or Thermomix
- Kneading did at various stages, leaving a few minutes and kneading the dough for a while, 15 minutes , so three times. (with the Thermomix we'll do it once.)
- then let stand until the volume increases, it has doubled in volume as with baker's yeast we use regularly. This fermentation have lasted about 10/12 hours.
- The dough is a bit sticky, so drop it on a surface well floured board, sprinkle the dough up and roll sideways bending both ends inward, then turn 180 degrees the dough and re-stretch and bend, we will as a square.
- banneton I put on the stand and again. When I saw that he had taken the furnace volume warmed up with an empty tray and one for the bread within the tile (I have firestone) I poured the dough onto a sheet of silicone that helps me the conveyed to the tile, I made the cut and bake at maximum temperature, 250 º for 10 minutes then at 200 º until he took color.
- provoked in the oven to heat stroke dropping a little hot water on the empty tray placed on top of the oven.
- The remaining dough that is I make a drink (100 gr. +100 G water. Of flour) and put it in the fridge until next time.
- If you do not use it within 10 days, opto usually frozen.
