The 'favourite' bread of the moment, wonderfully crunchy outside with a delicious yeasty flavour and smell. This simple Sourdough bread recipe uses the KitchenAid Platinum Stand Mixer KSM156.
Ingreadient:
- The starter (begin up to 12 to 24 hours before):
- 2 cups (300g) bread (strong) flour
- 7g sachet dried yeast
- Pinch castor sugar
- 250ml warm water
Direction:
- For best results use the KitchenAid Platinum Stand Mixer KSM156.
- For the starter: Attach either the flat beater or flex edge beater and the mixing bowl to the stand mixer and add the starter ingredients: the flour, yeast, sugar and warm water.
- Turn to speed 4 and mix to a paste. Remove to a clean mixing bowl.
- Cover with plastic wrap, and set aside in a warm, dark place. Stir twice a day to help prevent a thick skin forming. The paste will become bubbly and have a pleasant, light yeasty smell.
