Even though I was supposed to start baking next week, I had a special birthday order came in to which I couldn’t say no🤩, so here we go ā˜ŗļø today’s bake. I wish you all could hear how the bread sings once it’s out of the oven! It reminds me of a fire cracking sound, and always the aroma that it gives out mmmm….!!!🤤🫶

How do I know if the dough proofed well?
Answer: I don’t, I can take the best guess by looking at it if it’s giggly, fluffy, has bubbles on the bottom of the proofing container, feels light, etc.

How does an under proofed dough feel like?
Answer: it’s heavy when you work with it, the quantity of it seems less even though weighing scale is showing the right weight in grams, it’s not giggly, doesn’t have lots of bubbles.

How does an under proofed dough look like after you bake it?
Answer: the loaf doesn’t spring much, it has small bubbles when you cut it, feels more dense.

How many hours should the dough be standing in a room temperature until it’s ready for shaping?
Answer: no one knows🄓, when the room temperature is warm it will get proofed within 4 hours, if the temperature in the room is cool it might take 5 to 6 hours to be at its peak!

How are you doing with perfectly proofing your perfect sourdough loaves? Did you have a situation where you under proofed the dough? How about over proofed the dough? Share in the comments below let’s all discuss itā¤ļø

1. Keep the starter in the fridge when not baking at all times and only take it out for making a levain then feed the remaining starter and place it in the fridge right away! (The colder the temperature the slower it grows)

2. Make it thicker to slow the growth. The less water you put in the starter before placing it in the fridge the slower it will grow. Ratio could be 1:2:3.

3. The more flour and water together you use when feeding the starter the slower it will grow… ratio could be 1:9:9!

Following these three methods you will never have to throw away any discard of your starter🫶

Sourdough starters are actually pretty robust. If you don’t feed your starter regularly (once a week - if stored in the fridge) the natural yeast and bacteria in the starter will run out of food, but they’ll stay alive (dormant) for a while (how long specifically-depends).

The main concern is that the starter develops mold if untouched for a long period of time (couple months)

If there’s no mold, just go back to your regular feeding schedule and your starter will most likely be performing as usual in no time.
