We would love to hear your sourdough stories. Looking online, you’d think everyone has perfected the sourdough starter but it’s a challenge! Have you tried baking your own?
We’ve shared a great HOUNÖ recipe for you to try:
Sourdough Starter – 5 portions
Ingredients
250gr Rye flour
250gr Durum flour
250gr Plain flour
750gr Water
Preparation
1. Mix all ingredients together, store in a plastic container with a lid. Leave a corner of the lid open so the mix can get some air.
2. Let it sit in room temp for 2-4 days until sour
3. Mix it daily. After fermenting, the sourdough mix can be used to make sourdough roll or rye bread. The mix can also be frozen down for use in the future
Chef’s Tip
It’s great to always have sourdough ready in the freezer so you can make fantastic bread whenever you feel like it. You can also use the previous mix to add to future mixes.
