Each bread holds its own story and each also reflects the energy I put into it. This energy can be seen through the decisiveness of the score, the stability of the dough\u2019s shape and its power to rise fully by seeing, feeling, and choosing the right moment to bake it. Today we will explore my charcoal sourdough bread.<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"720\" height=\"478\"

data-tasty-recipes-customization=\"body-color.color\">\n<div class=\"recipe-instructions-data\">\n<ol>\n<li id=\"instruction-step-1\">In the evening (day before baking), first dissolve 1 teaspoon of charcoal powder in 300 g of water. Add 100 g of sourdough starter and mix by hand. Next, add 400 of flour and mix all ingredients until they come together. Cover the bowl with the kitchen cloth and let the dough rest for 1 hour. This rest is called autolyse. Observe how the dough becomes more extensible after the rest. Letting your dough to rest after mixing it is a great option if you don\u2019t know how much water your flour absorbs. You can start with less water, let the dough rest and then see if you need to add more water.<\/li>\n<li id=\"instruction-step-2\">After 1 hour, you will notice the dough has relaxed a little bit. Add 8 g of salt and knead the dough for 5 minutes so it becomes stretchy.<\/li>\n<li id=\"instruction-step-3\">Leave the dough in the bowl for another 3 hours at the room temperature (if it\u2019s too cold, you might put the bowl in a slightly warm oven). Cover the bowl with a kitchen cloth to prevent the surface of the dough from drying out. In the meantime prepare the rising basket and flour it well. I lined my rising basket with a kitchen cloth and floured it with whole grain rye flour and white wheat flour.<\/li>\n<li id=\"instruction-step-4\">After 3 hours, the dough should look very alive, slightly risen, and stretchy. You might even see the bubbles on the dough surface. Take the dough out on a lightly floured working surface. Pinch the ends of the dough together in the middle, turn the dough upside down and let it rest for 10-15 minutes so that the final shaping will be easier as the gluten will relax.<\/li>\n<li id=\"instruction-step-5\">To shape the bread, turn it upside down, stretch a little bit with your fingers and then fold the bottom part over the center, left side over the center, right side over the center and also the upper side over the center. Transfer the dough to the rising basket fold-side up. Sprinkle some more flour on the top and cover it with the rest of the kitchen cloth. Put the basket in the fridge. Let it ferment until the volume of the dough has visibly increased (at least by a third) and when the indent you make with your finger springs back slowly and not all the way up.<\/li>\n<li id=\"instruction-step-6\">The photo below shows how the dough looked like after 17 hours in the fridge. The baking schedule can be easily modified to fit your schedule, depending on when you would like to bake the bread. If you would like to bake it in the morning, add more sourdough starter and leave the dough at the room temperature longer before and after shaping. Or you can also let it rise overnight in the fridge and take it out in the morning and let it at the room temperature to fully ferment.<\/li>\n<li id=\"instruction-step-7\">At least 30 minutes before baking preheat your oven to the maximum temperature of your oven along with Dutch oven or a baking stone. I used Dutch oven.<\/li>\n<li id=\"instruction-step-8\">When the oven is preheated, take the loaf out of the rising basket and transfer it to Dutch oven. Score the loaf and put your Dutch oven into oven.<\/li>\n<li id=\"instruction-step-9\">Bake the loaf for 20 minutes with the lid on at 240\u00b0C\/465F\u00b0F and 20-25 minutes with lid off at 230\u00b0C\/445\u00b0F and until bread gets nice golden color. Cool on a cooling rack before cutting for at least 1 hour.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"tasty-recipes-notes\" data-tasty-recipes-customization=\"secondary-color.background-color\">\n<h3 data-tasty-recipes-customization=\"h3-color.color h3-transform.text-transform\">Notes<\/h3>\n<div class=\"tasty-recipes-notes-body\" data-tasty-recipes-customization=\"body-color.color\">\n<ul>\n<li>This bread was mixed in the evening, left to rise for 3 hours at room temperature, shaped and then put in the fridge for 17 hours.

Add 100 g of active sourdough starter and mix by hand. Next, add 400 of flour and mix all ingredients until they come together. Cover the bowl with the kitchen cloth and let the dough rest for 1 hour. This rest is called <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mydailysourdoughbread.com\/autolyse-bread\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"3454\">autolyze<\/a><\/strong>. Observe how the dough becomes more extensible after the rest. Letting your dough to rest after mixing it is a great option if you don\u2019t know how much water your flour absorbs. You can start with less water, let the dough rest and then see if you need to add more water.<\/li>\n<li>After 1 hour, you will notice the dough has relaxed a little bit. Add 8 g of salt and knead the dough for 5 minutes so it becomes stretchy.<\/li>\n<li>Leave the dough in the bowl for another 3 hours at the room temperature (if it\u2019s too cold, you might put the bowl in a slightly warm oven). Cover the bowl with a kitchen cloth to prevent the surface of the dough from drying out. In the meantime prepare the rising basket and flour it well. I lined my rising basket with a kitchen cloth and floured it with whole grain rye flour and white wheat flour.<\/li>\n<li>After 3 hours, the dough should look very alive, slightly risen, and stretchy. You might even see the bubbles on the dough surface. Take the dough out on a lightly floured working surface. Pinch the ends of the dough together in the middle, turn the dough upside down and let it rest for 10-15 minutes so that the final shaping will be easier as the gluten will relax.\u00a0<\/li>\n<li>To shape the bread, turn it upside down, stretch a little bit with your fingers and then fold the bottom part over the center, left side over the center, right side over the center and also the upper side over the center. Transfer the dough to the rising basket fold-side up. Sprinkle some more flour on the top and cover it with the rest of the kitchen cloth. Put the basket in the fridge. Let it ferment until the volume of the dough has visibly increased (at least by a third) and when the indent you make with your finger springs back slowly and not all the way up.<\/li>\n<li>The photo below shows what the dough looked like after 17 hours in the fridge. The baking schedule can be easily modified to fit your schedule, depending on when you would like to bake the bread. If you would like to bake it in the morning, add more sourdough starter and leave the dough at room temperature longer before and after shaping. Or you can also let it rise overnight in the fridge and take it out in the morning and let it at room temperature to fully ferment.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"720\" height=\"478\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mydailysourdoughbread.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/sourdough-charcoal-bread-floured-edited-720x478.jpg\" alt=\"Charcoal sourdough bread\" class=\"wp-image-6834\" title=\"Easy Charcoal Sourdough Bread Recipe 85\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mydailysourdoughbread.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/sourdough-charcoal-bread-floured-edited-720x478.jpg 720w, https:\/\/www.mydailysourdoughbread.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/sourdough-charcoal-bread-floured-edited-420x279.jpg 420w, https:\/\/www.mydailysourdoughbread.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/sourdough-charcoal-bread-floured-edited-768x510.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.mydailysourdoughbread.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/sourdough-charcoal-bread-floured-edited-840x558.jpg 840w, https:\/\/www.mydailysourdoughbread.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/sourdough-charcoal-bread-floured-edited-1536x1020.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.mydailysourdoughbread.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/sourdough-charcoal-bread-floured-edited-2048x1360.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.mydailysourdoughbread.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/sourdough-charcoal-bread-floured-edited-1568x1041.jpg 1568w, https:\/\/www.mydailysourdoughbread.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/sourdough-charcoal-bread-floured-edited-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.mydailysourdoughbread.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/sourdough-charcoal-bread-floured-edited-380x252.jpg 380w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Fully proofed charcoal sourdough bread ready to be put in the oven.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>At least 30 minutes before baking preheat your oven to the maximum temperature of your oven along with Dutch oven or a baking stone.

The sourdough aspect of the bread gives it a tangy, slightly sour <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mydailysourdoughbread.com\/what-does-sourdough-bread-taste-like\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"757\">taste that is characteristic of sourdough bread<\/a><\/strong>.
