Equipment

  • 1 Banneton basket or tea towel lined colander.
  • 1 Lame or very sharp knife
  • 1 Dutch Oven

Ingredients

  • 1 1/3 cups whey or water 315 grams
  • 1/2 cup sourdough starter 127 grams
  • 1 1/2 tsp salt 11 grams
  • 3 1/2 cups Kamut Flour (I use freshly milled) 420 grams

Instructions

  • Combine starter and whey or water.
  • Add 3 cups of the flour and salt, mix until well combined.
  • Add remaining flour and mix well.
  • Cover and allow to rest for 30 minutes to an hour.
  • Every 20 minutes for the next 2 hours perform a set of stretch and folds.
  • After last stretch and fold, cover and allow to bulk ferment for an additional 2-3 hours.
  • Turn dough onto work surface.
  • Prepare the banneton basket or tea toweled line colander by generously flouring the basket or tea towel.
  • Shape dough and place seam side down.
  • Cover and allow to rise for an additional 1-2 hours.
  • Optionally, you can place the dough in the fridge for another 8-12 hours before baking. Put it in the fridge as soon as you get it in the banneton basket and don't allow it to rise first.
  • Preheat a dutch oven in the oven to 450 degrees F.
  • Once preheated, remove the dough from the fridge.
  • Turn the dough out of the basket onto a piece of parchment paper.
  • Slash top with lame or sharp knife.
  • Transfer to the dutch oven, put the lid on and bake for 20 minutes.
  • Remove the lid and continue to bake for 15-20 minutes or until deeply golden brown.
