2020 이후

The 'Bread Ahead: Baking School' book by Matthew Jones from the well-known borough market bakery. I made my first sourdough on 12/01/2020, but not with Quentin (a different starter which was not strong at all and is now gone). Quentin's birthday is 28/04/2020.

특징

Quentin provides good rising power, but above all has a lovely flavour. He was made in 2020, but I have added a starter which was 7 years old from a bakery into the micro-environment, so has a lot of unique, deep and mature flavour from that.

작업방식

1
Light rye flour - from Dove's farm. I use this flour because it has the flavour of rye and some of darker rye's stronger rising power, but the whole grain does not inhibit the gluten. It provides a good balance between dark rye and white flours, without mixing the two.
50% Light rye flour
2
Water - from the tap. I don't use filtered water because for some reason the water from my fridge filter inhibits the growth of my starter, but I do need to experiment on this a little bit more. The water where I live is of good quality and has a nice flavour.
