Bread with sourdough starter is one of the most popular of recent trending foods in the world. It is enjoyed by millions every day. It is simple, it is fast, it tastes yummy. They’re fine and they look wonderful. Bread with sourdough starter is something that I’ve loved my whole life.

Whether it conjures up a crusty, flavorful loaf of bread or a bubbling crock of flour/water starter, sourdough is a treasured part of many bakers' kitchens. But where does the path to sourdough bread begin? Right in your own kitchen, with your own homemade sourdough starter.

To begin with this recipe, we have to prepare a few ingredients. You can cook bread with sourdough starter using 6 ingredients and 6 steps. Here is how you can achieve it.

The ingredients needed to make Bread with sourdough starter:
  1. Take 1 part warm water
  2. Get 3 parts flour (more or less)
  3. Take salt (1 tsp per 500 g flour)
  4. Take honey (1 tsp per 500 g flour)
  5. Make ready sourdough starter
  6. Make ready whatever you like for flavor (e.g. anise, cloves, grated cheese, olives, etc.) optionally

Be sure that you clean the jar well before putting the saved starter. Making sourdough bread with a starter will take longer to rise when compared to using a commercial yeast, but the results are well worth it. Plus you can use that sourdough starter discard to create more delicious recipes. Second, think about your timeline for baking bread.

Steps to make Bread with sourdough starter:
  1. Using a large bowl, dissolve the sourdough starter in the warm water (it shouldn't be very hot).
  2. Add most of the flour, the salt and whatever spice you have chosen (if you like). Knead well and add as much flour as is necessary to make a dough that doesn't stick to your hands. Take care to not add too much flour because the bread will be very firm.
  3. Knead for an additional 10'-15' minutes.
  4. Set aside a piece of the dough to use as a starter for the next time you make bread. Cover the bowl with a clean towel and leave in a warm place (during winter, next to the fireplace or a slightly preheated oven, but make sure that it is not on) for 8-12 hours until it doubles in size.
  5. Shape your dough into loaves and place in respective trays which you have brushed lightly with oil. Score the top with a knife and brush with a little water (at this point you can sprinkle with sesame seeds and press them a bit with your hand). Set them aside to rise once more.
  6. Bake in a preheated oven at 200°C, for about 40' (depending on the oven and the size of the bread).

If you want to use the sourdough starter soon, the best practice is to keep it on your kitchen counter, or whatever room-temperature area is. Gradually stir in warm water until smooth. Sourdough Starter is often referred to as 'wild' yeast, made from flour, water and the wild yeast in the air around us. This Simple Sourdough Bread recipe takes a little patience to let the dough rise a couple of times before baking it. But, if you were patient enough to get your sourdough starter ready to go, then a few hours is nothing!
