Hearth-Baked Centennial Sourdough
- 1 cup water
- 3 cups bread flour
- 1/2 cup rye flour
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 package active dry yeast
- Add ingredients to bread machine pan according to manufacturer's directions.
- Select dough cycle.
- Scrape dough onto a board coated generously with bread flour. Taking care not to puncture or tear dough surface (interior is sticky), pat dough gently with floured hands to form a round loaf about 8 inches wide; do not knead. Sprinkle 2 tablespoons bread flour over dough.
- Slide a pastry scraper or wide spatula under loaf to loosen, then lift quickly and carefully onto a buttered 14- by 17-inch baking sheet. Pat to reshape loaf, if necessary.
- Lightly cover loaf with plastic wrap and let stand until puffy, about 30 minutes. Remove plastic.
- With a floured razor blade or very sharp knife, cut 2 to 3 slashes about 1/2 inch deep across top of loaf.
- Bake in a 425u0b0 oven until richly browned, 25 to 30 minutes.
- Transfer loaf to a rack to cool at least 15 minutes before slicing. Serve hot, warm, or cool.
- To make a 2-pound loaf, use 1 1/3 cups water, 1 1/3 cups sourdough starter, 4 cups bread flour, 2/3 cup rye flour, 4 teaspoons sugar, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1 package active dry yeast.
- Nutritional analysis per ounce.
