Answers: How do I make sourdough baguettes at home?

• sourdough baguettes
• baking with sourdough
• fresh-milled khorosan wheat
• dough shaping and scoring
• baking bread with steam

Ingredients

• Khorosan wheat
• water
• liquid levain
• King Arthur All-Purpose flour
• fresh-milled khorosan
• salt
• yeast
• sourdough culture

What it concludes

• Using freshly milled course khorosan flour in the linen dusting adds extra texture and toastiness to the crust.
• A lighter, airier crumb structure changes the eating quality of the baguette to make it taste more open and delicious.
• Adding a small amount of commercial yeast to sourdough baguette dough helps ensure steady fermentation without hurting the flavor.
• Resting the shaped dough in the fridge for about 15 minutes right before baking cools it down just enough to make scoring easier.
