- Bread Flour 450 g
- Water 300 g
- Starter 100 g
- Raw Sunflower Seeds 40 g
- Salt 10 g
Mix starter and water thoroughly, then add flour and salt, mix and let rest for 30 min inside the cold oven with a light on. First round of stretches and folds, about 10 stretches. 30 min rest in the oven, then add half of the sunflower seeds and perform 2nd round of s+f, 4 good stretches. 30 min rest in the oven, add the remaining seeds, 3rd and last round of s+f, 4 stretches.
Bulk ferment in the oven until about 70% rise (took me about 2.5 hours), preshape, let rest on the counter for 30 min. Final shape, put in a banneton, cover and let sit on the counter for 1 hour. Then put in a fridge for 36 hours.
Preheat the oven and the dutch oven to 500F. Take out of the fridge, score, spray a little with water, put into dutch oven and reduce heat to 450F. 20 minutes lid on, 15 minutes lid off, 5 minutes straight on the rack without dutch oven. Let cool for 3 hours.
I will probably add 50-60 g of sunflower seeds next time.

r but I have YET TO GET THOSE high shoulder loaves with even too top to bottom left to right Holes !! Like my last posted bake was the closest I’ve been. What is it that I need to tweak! lol
Heck yeah. I usually prefer the crust a bit more bien cuit but I’d definitely buy this
How is this cut done?? One large cut to ‘open’ the dough (still learning sourdough so bear with me) and then the wheat pattern carved in after like 5 minutes of baking?
Call it the Ted Lasso Special and you’ll make a million! But seriously, looks fantastic.
