Cold-Risen Bread
This recipe gives you 2 delightful, cold-risen loaves with only 4 ingredients.
Equipment
- Deciliter Measure
- Kitchen Scale
- Bowl
- Oven
- Knife
Ingredients
- 700 gram Water
- 15 gram Yeast Or 1 tsp dry yeast
- 6 gram Coarse salt
- 850 gram Wheat Flour
- 100 gram Wheat Flour For shaping your bread
Instructions
Day 1:
- Dissolve yeast and salt in the cold water in a large bowl.
- Stir in the flour a little at a time until the dough is sticky but firm.
- Cover the bowl with a shower cap or plastic wrap and place the dough in the fridge overnight.
Day 2 (next morning):
- Preheat the oven to 240 degrees Celsius (464 degrees Fahrenheit) (fan).
- While the oven is heating, carefully shape the two loaves.
- Do not knock the air out of the dough.
- Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and divide it into 2 lumps.
- Place half of the dough on one baking tray and the other half on the second baking tray.
- Make a small slit in the top of each loaf before placing them in the oven.
- Bake the bread for 5 minutes at 240 degrees Celsius (464 degrees Fahrenheit) (fan), and then reduce the oven temperature to 210 degrees Celsius (410 degrees Fahrenheit) (fan).
- Give them 20-30 more minutes, depending on how your oven heats. The bread is ready when it sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.
- Let them cool on a wire rack before eating.
