Today I tried to bake bread on a three-phase sourdough. Breads recipe is different from the classic recipe that is described in the book of Handbuch Sauerteig (M.J. Brand). But the result is still delicious!
The first version had King Arthur and Winco Hi Gluten flours, 50/50, for the half of the flour that wasn’t whole and sprouted whole grain flour. That bread turned out very well, open, soft, moist crumb, good spring and bloom with a well browned, thin chewy crust at a bit under 80% hydration. The best part is that the 6 whole and sprouted grains really pumped up the flavor.
I have a bagel recipe that calls for 2 tsp. maple syrup, but I'd like to use non-diastatic malt powder instead. What would be the equivalent amount of malt powder to replace the 2 tsp. syrup?
Hi guys, please check out my boule from Artisan bread in 5.
How do I accomplish a softer crust?
Basically, it's a no knead dough, master recipe from the book - with 1 day fridge storage. I plan on using these for my panini's and salads. One of the things I'm finding is that the crust is really hard and probably will be too hard to pull and enjoy a sandwich.

More bread than banana, this one. It contains a bit of everything in terms of the flour, dark rye, whole spelt and whole wheat. The banana flavour is very subtle.
Being so soft and moist from the fruit, it did not keep its shape and spread out a bit. From one of my favourite bread blogs https://www.ploetzblog.de/2015/12/19/bananenbrot/

This is my version of Spanish bread, a popular local bread that almost every corner bakery has. A TFLer already posted this. Despite the name, I really don't know if it is Spanish in origin or if it has anything to do with Spanish cuisine; I read it was called as such because it was the Spaniards who taught us to make bread.
