10% Sprouted Organic Spelt Four Sourdough with Caramelized Onion and Rosemary

So I have not made any sourdough in months and let my starter die off. New Year new starter and my first sourdough bake of the year. The santed wife wants to try and go all organic as possible and make two nights a week Vegetarian, not vegan, but lacto ovo so pasta and cheese are still on the table.

This is a variation of Chad Robinsons Sourdough but with 10% Dark Rye Stone Ground Organic Flour, 12 hour rise.

Decided to try my hand at Fuogasse, first time ever.

Oil cured Olive with herbs...

228 gr.    Warm Milk

58 gr.      Melted Butter, + more for brushing the tops

400 gr.    AP Flour, KA

100  gr.   Sprouted Whole Wheat Flour

14 gr.      Kosher Salt 

25 gr.      Light Brown Sugar

8  gr.      Dry Yeast

Method:

So I have been a wee bit busy over the last week or so and here is an account of the baking.

Remember to gather ALL the tools required before baking. Mise en Place people!

I needed to make some plain bread for Stuffing/dressing.

I decided to experiment and try a new flour for me, it is half the price of KA AP Flour and what could be the worst thing that could happen. This loaf was based on Ken Forkish's "Saturday White Bread" formula with addition of three types of olives, rosemary and lemon zest.
