I fed both sourdough starters on Monday.
And three ounces of excess starter went into a Biga.
The one on the left was fed with rye and had doubled within three hours.
The one on the right was fed with white and wasn’t far behind.
Rye
I left them both out a little longer
before putting them in the fridge.
White.
When the Biga had doubled it went into
a batch of dough.
1000 g flour
540 g Biga
740 g water
26 g salt
Hand mixed using the pinch and fold technique.
After the first rise it went into the fridge for
a longer fermentation.
Pulled out early this morning.
Needed a few hours to warm up.
Shaped into small loaves – ovals and small baguettes.
