Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 120 grams Sourdough starter
- 360 grams Bread flour
- 240 ml Water
- 8 grams Salt
- 10 grams Sugar
- 15 ml Olive oil (optional)
Instructions
Ensure your sourdough starter is active and bubbly before beginning. Feed it 4-6 hours prior to starting the recipe if needed.
Add the ingredients into the Zojirushi bread machine pan in the following order: sourdough starter, water, bread flour, sugar, salt, and olive oil (if using).
Insert the bread pan into the machine and program it for a custom sourdough cycle. Set the kneading time to 10 minutes, the rest/proof time to 6-8 hours (for fermentation and rise), and the baking time to 40 minutes. Adjust crust color preference as desired (light, medium, or dark).
Start the machine and allow it to complete the kneading and proofing steps. During the initial knead, check the dough consistency. If it feels too sticky, add a tablespoon of flour at a time, or if it's too dry, add a teaspoon of water gradually until smooth.
Once the machine finishes proofing, it will automatically transition to the bake cycle. Let the bread bake for the allotted time.
When the baking cycle completes, carefully remove the bread pan using oven mitts, then turn the bread out onto a wire rack to cool completely for 1-2 hours before slicing.
Slice, serve, and enjoy the tangy, chewy goodness of homemade sourdough bread!
