Prescription Bread: A Basic 10-Minute Sourdough Tin Loaf

Learning Objective

This recipe applies all the basic principles of fermentation and uses the specific timings, temperature and flour needed to achieve a classic Sourdough Tin Loaf that can be made in just 10 minutes of active time. It may take a couple of attempts to find a rhythm and routine to your baking.

Learning Outcome

This loaf allows you to make a loaf in just 10 minutes of active work. You will learn about timings and temperature, and how to bake a basic tinned loaf that is a joy to eat every day.

Even if you are a seasoned sourdough baker, this is where I suggest you start. We know from experience that when starting to bake sourdough, mastering a tin/pan loaf means you are much more likely to succeed with more advanced breads, as you have taken the time to understand every bake. You will be delighted to know that my new book is called 10-Minute Sourdough, and follows the same principles as the recipes you will find in the Club. When you start baking sourdough, there is so much to learn.  The very first thing is to learn a rhythm, and to recognise what good, robust fermentation looks like, so I recommend that you begin with a tin loaf. It gives you time to get into the rhythm of the schedule and  to understand the basic principles of flour. This recipe has my suggestions for timings and temperatures that suit a typical working day. It is an ambient bake, and the timings mean that you refresh your starter before you go to bed, and then bake to a convenient schedule that fits in with your day.

This loaf is 50 per cent wholegrain...
