She lent me a copy of \u201cThe Tartine Bread\u201d book.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I made a loaf of their \u201cBasic Country Bread\u201d and I was hooked. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I highly recommend \u201cThe Tartine Bread\u201d book.

I have even exchanged a loaf for several pounds of moose meat!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This recipe makes two medium sized (9 inch diameter) loaves. The recipe also makes excellent <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kaylasdoghouse.com\/kitchen\/2020\/10\/03\/deep-dish-cast-iron-skillet-pizza\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"1949\">pizza<\/a> dough (enough

class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Heat up both the base and the lid in a 500 \u00baF oven and follow the instructions in the recipe above.  Some dutch ovens, like the Le Creuset that I own, have black phenolic knobs. This knob is only rated to 390 \u00baF so you should replace it with a stainless steel knob.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Another issue with a dutch oven is the high sides make it difficult to turn the dough out into the HOT pan and the potential for burning your arm when scoring the loaf is high.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you plan on making this kind of bread on a regular basis, I highly recommend buying a cast iron combo-cooker.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\">\namzn_assoc_tracking_id = \"kaylasdoghous-20\";\namzn_assoc_ad_mode = \"manual\";\namzn_assoc_ad_type = \"smart\";\namzn_assoc_marketplace = \"amazon\";\namzn_assoc_region = \"US\";\namzn_assoc_design = \"enhanced_links\";\namzn_assoc_asins = \"B0009JKG9M\";\namzn_assoc_placement = \"adunit\";\namzn_assoc_linkid = \"d9d819284383ccf46fc4b08cecbeff27\";\n<\/script>\n<script src=\"\/\/z-na.amazon-adsystem.com\/widgets\/onejs?MarketPlace=US\"><\/script>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:60px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Banneton Basket<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When I first started making these loaves, I used a bowl lined with a floured kitchen towel for the final rise of this recipe.  Flouring the towel with a 50\/50 mixture of rice flour and whole wheat flour worked most of the time, but it did sometimes stick to the loaf.  Because this recipe involves turning out the dough into 500 \u00baF pans, even the occasional sticking results in cussing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I now use a 9-inch diameter banneton (proofing basket).  Some of these come with a linen liner, but I don\u2019t use it.  I spritz some water into the basket to get it damp, dust it with rice flour, and let it dry before putting the dough in for the final rise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Using a banneton also gives you a loaf with nice rings around it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\">\namzn_assoc_placement = \"adunit0\";\namzn_assoc_search_bar = \"true\";\namzn_assoc_tracking_id = \"kaylasdoghous-20\";\namzn_assoc_search_bar_position = \"bottom\";\namzn_assoc_ad_mode = \"search\";\namzn_assoc_ad_type = \"smart\";\namzn_assoc_marketplace = \"amazon\";\namzn_assoc_region = \"US\";\namzn_assoc_title = \"Shop Related Products\";\namzn_assoc_default_search_phrase = \"banneton\";\namzn_assoc_default_category = \"Kitchen\";\namzn_assoc_linkid = \"129fb7a8fc702dfccfe142f141cf0602\";\namzn_assoc_default_browse_node = \"284507\";\n<\/script>\n<script src=\"\/\/z-na.amazon-adsystem.com\/widgets\/onejs?MarketPlace=US\"><\/script>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After receiving a 30 year old sourdough starter, I made a loaf of this bread and I was hooked.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":1893,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"wprm-recipe-roundup-name":"","wprm-recipe-roundup-description":"","_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[213],"tags":[309,602,408,405],"class_list":["post-1966","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-sides","tag-bread","tag-focaccia","tag-pizza","tag-sourdough"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/www.kaylasdoghouse.com\/kitchen\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/SourdoughBreadPrep10.jpg","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p84U30-vI","jetpack-related-posts":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kaylasdoghouse.com\/kitchen\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1966","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kaylasdoghouse.com\/kitchen\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kaylasdoghouse.com\/kitchen\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kaylasdoghouse.com\/kitchen\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kaylasdoghouse.com\/kitchen\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1966"}],"version-history":[{"count":10,"href":"https:\/\/www.kaylasdoghouse.com\/kitchen\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1966\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2545,"href":"https:\/\/www.kaylasdoghouse.com\/kitchen\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1966\/revisions\/2545"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kaylasdoghouse.com\/kitchen\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1893"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.kaylasdoghouse.com\/kitchen\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1966"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kaylasdoghouse.com\/kitchen\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1966"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.kaylasdoghouse.com\/kitchen\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1966"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
