Siegfried-Sourdough made with milk, 10 days
Here is a little gem, fell out of my cookbook (guess he figured his time was ripe). It is like a Friendship Bread in that one is given Siegfried sourdough sample and a recipe with instructions. I think it's funny how it contains both metric and cups. I would just take a sample of your own sourdough and try it. How much? Anywhere from a tablespoon to 1/2 cup, up to you.... Thoughts & comments welcome.
- Day One: Feed Siegfried with 1 cup Milk, 1/2 cup Powder Sugar, 1/2 cup Flour
- Days Two through Four: Stir
- with lots
- of tender loving care.
- Day Five: Feed like Day One
- Days Six through Nine: Stir
- with lots
- of tender
- loving care.
- Day Ten: Divide Siegfried into 3 parts. Save one part, give one away, and useone part in the following recipe:
Rye Bread Dough:
- 1 part Siegfried
- 500g wheat flour
- 500g rye flour
- 2 pkg dry yeast (1pkg enough to lift 500g flour)
- 10g -15g salt
- 40g Breadspice
- 3 cups to 4 cups (with a note,"4, a little too much") warm water
- note added: Sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, or walnuts
