How to Make Pumpernickel Sourdough Bread
点击查看大图

Sourdough bread is hearty, delicious and very traditional. It is easy to make and even easier to devour fresh from the oven.
Ingredients

Starter:

1 package dry yeast
2 cups lukewarm water
2 cups flour
Dissolve yeast in water. Add flour to mix.
Bread:

3 cups pumpernickel flour
2 cakes yeast
1/2 cup warm water
6 cups unbleached flour
2 teaspoons salt
1/2 cup honey
Steps

1. Mix the pumpernickel flour into the starter.
2. Add 1 cake of yeast.
3. Add half a cup of water and stir in. It is okay to add more water if the mixture feels too thick - do this by feel.
4. Flour a rolling board. Take the dough and knead it on the board for 5 - 10 minutes. This can be tough on the wrists, so if you have a helper, share the task. The ability to knead dough improves with practice.
5. Put the dough into a greased bowl. Olive oil makes a good choice for greasing the bowl.
6. Cover the dough with a damp teatowel or baking paper. Set aside in a warm place and allow to rise. It should double in size before you touch it again.
7. Punch the doubled dough and add the remaining ingredients - the rest of the flour, the honey, yeast and salt. More water can be added if needed (see "Tips").
8. Knead again for 5 - 10 minutes.
9. Divide the dough into two halves. Place each dough half into greased or lined loaf tins for baking.
10. Bake at 400ºF/250ºC for 35 - 40 minutes.

Tips
· Correct stiff dough with the addition of more water.
· Correct sticky dough with the addition of more flour.
· Try to use filtered water where possible; it increases the healthiness of the loaf.
· Remember that altitude changes will affect cooking times.
· Maryan of Rexipe (her photo above), suggests that this bread is perfect dipped in olive oil and balsamic vinegar.

Things You'll Need
·Bowl
·Wooden spoon
·Breadboard or similar clean surface, floured
·Strong hands (seriously! kneading is hard work but also builds strength over time)
·2 loaf tins
·Baking paper
·Teatowel
