Rye croutons and raisin ferment can make a bread
Submitted by Martadella on March 10, 2022 – 12:58pm.
In a small jar I put a handful of raisins, a handful of dried sd rye cubes and some lukewarm water. I let it ferment in a lukewarm spot for 3 days. Third day evening, I added water to volume of 650ml. I fed it with a couple tablespoons of rye flour. In the morning I added more flour, to the consistency of pancake batter. It fermented about 5 hours, then started collapsing. At this moment I made the proper dough using all purpose flour and salt. Didn’t add anymore water. Bulk ferment was 2 hours, final proof probably around 1 hour. Baked free standing, with steam, on a pizza stone
