From Dough to Fresh Artisan Sourdough bread baked fresh at home
Thaw dough at room temperature until soft (±1–2 hours) or overnight in the fridge.
Transfer the dough into a lightly oiled dish and cover it with a tea towel. Let it rest for 2
hours. After the rest, gently fold the sides of the dough toward the centre.
Once the dough has doubled in size sprinkle the dough with flour and tip into greased baking
bread tin/ tray.
Cover the top of the dough with flour entirely. Gently cut/ score the top of the bread with a
sharp knife.
Once cut, let it rest for further 30 minutes.
Preheat oven at 200 °C – 220 °C. Place an empty tray or oven-safe dish on the bottom shelf
(for steam).
Put the loaf in the preheated oven. Carefully pour a cup of hot water into the empty tray on
the bottom shelf (for steam).
Bake for 25 - 30 minutes or until golden brown.
The loaf is ready when it sounds hollow when tapped underneath.
Cool on a wire rack for at least 30 minutes before slicing.
