Southern Barley Bread

1 egg — room temperature,
plus enough water (80 degrees) to
equal 3/4 cup liquid plus an additional
2 tablespoons warm water
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon oil
1 tablespoon honey
1 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons dry milk
3 tablespoons cooked barley
2 teaspoons uncooked grits
1/4 cup uncooked oat bran cereal
1/3 cup whole wheat flour
1 1/4 cups bread flour
1 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast

Make sure all ingredients, except water, are at room temperature. Use a
liquid measuring cup to measure the water-egg combination.

Follow the instructions for your particular brand of bread baking machine.
This recipe can be made and baked with the “Whole Wheat” bake cycle.

This recipe yields 1 loaf.

Comments: High elevations may make dough rise faster. If recipe does not
work as is, decrease yeast by 1 teaspoon at a time. You may have to
increase water; start with 2 tablespoons. Addition of gluten will help
the structure of the bread, add 1 teaspoon per cup of flour.

You may freeze the baked breads; cool before wrapping in plastic wrap,
place in plastic bag and seal. Bread may be frozen up to six weeks. Thaw
by partially opening wrapping to allow moisture to escape gradually.

Sourest Sourdough

1 1/4 cups sourdough starter
1/2 cup water
3 cups bread flour
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons yeast

Set starter out on counter and bring to room temperature. Feed as you
normally do and allow to become foamy and active. This will take 8 to 12
hours.

Put all ingredients in the B/M and set on the dough cycle. When the cycle
is complete, remove dough and squeeze out gases. Cover with a damp towel
and let it rest for 20 or 30 minutes. (This rest period makes the dough
more pliable.) Sprinkle corn meal on a board and shape dough into two
cylindrical loaves. Place loaves on a cornmeal covered baking sheet or in
a special “baguette pan” that can be purchased at a kitchen store. Cover
again with the damp towel and put in the refer for 12 to 24 hours. Take
dough out of the refer, sprinkle with water, and let it sit out until the
loaves are fully risen. (They will usually rise a little in the refer,
too.) Spray again with water then bake at 375 for 30 minutes or until
brown and crusty. If you want a really crusty bread, spray the loaf with
water every five minutes while baking. This harder to describe than it is
to do … and the results are worth it! PLEASE NOTE: Depending on the
temperature, humidity, and the whim of the starter, the bread will vary
from ba tch to batch. Sometimes it is very sour and dense while other
times it is mildly sour and fluffy inside. Each batch is unique…but it
is always good. I found that using the special pan helped the baguettes
keep their shape. The pan is well worth the fifteen bucks.

You can also vary the flavor of the bread by using more or less sugar or
by substituting 1 TBL of vinegar for 1 TBL of water. Another variation is
to use flat beer instead of water in either the recipe or when feeding the
starter. (Be sure to separate your starter into two batches first so that
you do not contaminate the Original pot.) Everytime I share this recipe,
I get notes saying this is the beat sourdough ever!

Original Poster’s Note: Here’s one I”ve been tinkering with for several
months now. I’m eating a warm slice right now and it’s GREAT! :) The ripe
bananas eliminate the need for any sugar or oil. This makes a very tasty
loaf that is excellent toasted in the morning or eaten straight out of the
bread machine late at night. Hey, I think this may even qualify as healthy
stuff.

Sylvia’s notes: I substituted some chopped olives and leftover turkey for

the pepperoni, and it came out fine. Overrose and then cratered, but I
give up; after several tries, I haven’t been able to produce a perfect
loaf. If you don’t mind cratered tops, the flavor’s fine.

Sourdough Peasant Bread

1 1/8 cups sourdough starter
1/2 cup water
1 1/4 teaspoons sugar
3/4 teaspoon salt
2 1/4 cups bread flour
1 1/2 teaspoons yeast

This is for the medium sized loaf which, depending on how active my
starter is at the moment, will rise to the top of my Hitachi B101.

If I want an extra sour loaf, I will use the starter two or three days
after feeding. This produces a shorter loaf with a heavier texture.

For a light and fluffy loaf, I feed the starter first, then let it sit on

the counter for 8 to 10 hours before using. I make sure it is very foamy
when I put it in the B/M.

Sourdough Made Easy

1 cup nonfat skim milk
3 tablespoons plain yogurt
1 cup all-purpose flour

1.) Heat 1 cup skim
(NONFAT) milk to 90-100 degrees 2.) Stir in 3 tbsp. of plain FRESH high
quality Yogurt 3.) Pour into a 1 quart glass or ceramic crock, jar or
bowl. Cover with a nonmetallic lid and set in a warm place (70-100 degrees
F) for 24 hours. (O warm day, you can place the starter outside in the sun
or on a kitchen counter. On cooler days, place it in a gas oven with a
pilot light or on to of the water heater or on a heating pad set on low)
4.) After 24 hours the milk will thicken and form curds. At this point,
gradually stir in 1 cup all purpose flour until blended. Cover with lid
and set in a warm place again until it ferments and bubbles and a clear
liquid forms on top (about 2 – 5 days) Stir daily. 5.) Starter is now
ready to use. Stir, cover loosely, and refrigerate. IF AT ANY TIME IN THE
PROCESS THE STARTER TURNS PINK, SMELLS RANCID (NOT JU SOUR) OR DEVELOPS A
MOLD, THROW IT OUT AND START OVER.

Replenishing the Starter: Every time you use some of he starter, you must
replace it with a like amount of milk and flour. For instance if you use 1
of starter, return 1 cup of milk AND 1 cup of flour to the jar. Follow
these directions for feeding the starter.

Feeding the starter to keep it alive: A starter should be used as often
as possible, at least every 2-3 weeks. If you are not using it that often,

pla to feed it once a month to keep it going. 1. Bring to room
temperature. 2. Add equal amounts of warm milk (90-100) and flour
(1/2-1cup each) 3. Cover with lid and allow to stand in a warm place
(70-100 degrees) for twelve to 24 hours until bubbly and a clear liquid
has formed on top. 4. Stir, cover loosely (set lid on jar but do not
tightly seal; gasses must allow to escape), and refrigerate Rejuvenating
a Neglected Starter: If you forget to feed your starter month don’t throw
it away thinking its gone bad. Chances are you can still revive it. 1.)
pour off the liquid and discard all but 1 to 2 tablespoons of the starter.

Temporarily place reserved starter in a bowl. 2.) Wash out the starter
container with hot water. 3.) Put the starter back into the container. 4.)

Follow the directions for feeding the starter using 1 cup (warm (90-
100′F) skim (nonfat milk ) and 1 cup flour 5. You may have to repeat this
procedure once or twice to bring it back up bubbly, sour smelling again.

Sourdough French Bread II

1/2 cup water — plus
1 tablespoon water
3/4 cup starter — (see below)
2 teaspoons sugar
1 1/2 teaspoon salt
2 1/4 cups bread flour
1 1/2 teaspoons active dry yeast
=== SOURDOUGH STARTER ===
2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast
2 cups warm water — (110 degrees)
3 1/2 cups bread flour
1 tablespoon sugar

Sourdough Starter: In a 4-quart glass container, dissolve yeast in water
110 degrees; let stand 5 minutes, add flour and sugar. Stir with plastic
or wooden spoon until blended. Mixture will be thick; remaining lumps
will dissolve during fermentation process. Cover loosely with plastic
wrap and let stand in warm place for 5 days, stirring 3 times a day.

The starter will “rise and fall” during the fermentation period and become
thinner as it stands. A temperature of 80 to 85 degrees is best for the
sour flavor to develop. An ideal place is on the counter next to your
range.

When the starter is developed, it is bubbly and may have a yellow liquid
layer on top; stir before using. It may be used for baking or placed in
the refrigerator to use later, cover loosely.

To use starter measure the amount specified in the recipe. When
refrigerated, let container of starter come to room temperature before
measuring about 4 hours. If baking in the morning, leave the starter out
overnight.

Replenish with 1 cup flour, 2/3 cup warm water 110 degrees and 1 teaspoon
sugar. Stir until blended; some lumps may remain. Cover loosely and let
stand in warm place for 10 to 12 hours or overnight. The starter will
rise and become bubbly. Stir, then place in refrigerator to store. Stir
in 1 teaspoon sugar to keep it active if the starter is not used every
week.

Sourdough Bread: Make sure all ingredients, except water, are at room
temperature. Use a liquid measuring cup to measure the water.

Follow the instructions for your particular brand of bread baking machine.
This recipe can be made and baked with the “French Bread” bake cycle.

This recipe yields 1 loaf.

Comments: High elevations may make dough rise faster. If recipe does not
work as is, decrease yeast by 1 teaspoon at a time. You may have to
increase water; start with 2 tablespoons. Addition of gluten will help

Sourdough French Bread

1/2 tablespoon yeast
2 1/4 cups flour — bread
1 cup sourdough starter — room temp
1 tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup water — tepid

Put all ingredients except the water into the machine. Set it for french
bread and start it. Slowly drizzle the water into the machine while it is
running. Stop adding water when the dough forms a rough ball that cleans
the sides of the pan. There should be no wet slime under the paddle. Let
it knead for a while. The dough should get smooth and satiny. Touch the
dough ball. It’s okay if it barely sticks to your finger and feels tacky,
but you finger should come away clean. This dough, not having any fat or
oil is always just a hair stickier than normal white bread. It should not
feel too dry. If it is dry, add a few drops of water. Close the lid and
let it do its thing. After the loaf shaping stage you may mist the dough
lightly with water to give it a crispier crust.

Rye variation: substitute 1/2 cup rye flour for 1/2 cup bread flour. Add
1 tsp caraway seed.

Note: Feed the starter and let it stand at room temp at least 4 hours
before starting the bread (usually over night) Store starter in the fridge
when not in daily use. I feed it with 1/2 cup all purpose flour and 1/2
cup water.

take to work for a party, and used this one. I shaped the dough into 4
long ropes, which by the time they finished rising were bigger than I
wanted. :( I baked them in a 350 oven for 20 minutes with a pan of hot
water on the bottom rack to get a good crisp crust, then flipped them over
and baked another 10 minutes to get the bottom crisp too. Came out great!

Sourdough Baguettes

2 cups healthy active sourdough starter
1 1/4 cups bread flour
1 tablespoon oil
1/2 cup milk
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon sugar
1 1/2 cups bread flour

Knead the first two ingredients for 5 minutes, then allow to sit in the
pan for 8 hours. Then add the rest of the ingredients. Select the dough
cycle and press start.

When the dough is done remove from the pan and form into 3 balls of
roughly the same size. Form a long narrow rope from each ball. Ropes
should be as long as your baking sheet and bout 1 1/2-inch in diameter.
Allow to rise on a greased baking sheet for 1 to 2 hours. If you arrange
the ropes within 1 inch of each other and seperate them with narrow strips
of wax paper, they will support each other as they rise and have less
tendency to flatten.

Just before baking, brush with cold water and then make short diagonal
slashes along the entire length. Leave the waxed paper in place and bake
in a preheated 375 degree oven for 35 minutes. Every 10 or so minutes
drop ice cubes on your oven’s floor, this will generate steam and give
your bread that traditional crust. Once they have done, seperate them and
place on a cooling rack to cool.

This recipe yields 3 baguettes.

Comments: This is a light, open-textured, simple bread and it doesn’t
keep very well — considering that Basque Shepherds from Northern Spain
– prepared the dough each morning for the evening meal. The shepherd
would place the dough in a special iron pot and bury it in the coals of
his campfire in the morning. On his return from tending his flock the pot
of bread would be ready. The top of the bread would then be slashed to
form a cross before the evening meal — and the first piece was always
given to the herder’s sheepdog.
