Not mine but I thought folks might find it interesting.
The Sourdough Framework
The sourdough framework is an open-source book dedicated to helping you to make the best possible sourdough bread at home.
Rather than providing recipes this book intends to provide a framework that enables you to bake bread in your respective environment. Every flour, every sourdough, and every home setup is different. This makes following recipes without background information so hard and a fail-prone endeavor. This book intends to close that gap.
Background4 years after launching the repositories the-bread-code and pizza-dough I created this project to merge the knowledge together. This project intends to go one step deeper into the workings of natural fermentation. At the same time as many scientific references as possible are provided.
Gary, just skimmed the index, saw the link to making dough more sour, and read your suggestion of partial baking then cooling, then baking again. Never heard of that before and will be trying that this weekend. Thanks.
It isn't my book; I just stumbled onto it.
Let us know how the double bake works for you.
Very interesting. A really good read...
Gary, did my first try of the partial bake, then cook, then finish baking. I can't say that it tasted more sour, but I did make a mistake. While I partially cooked it, and it looked pale when I took it out, it had a great oven spring, though by the time it cooled, it collapsed a bit - so I must not have cooked it enough.
Thanks for the update. Getting a partial bake just right is a trick for sure.
Hi Gary. Thanks for posting. How did you like the read?
The book also has a website right now where all the content can be read.
