Ingredients

Scale
  • 100 g active sourdough starter
  • 500 g bread flour
  • 355 g room temperature water (335g for initial dough + 20g when adding salt)
  • 100 g fresh blueberries
  • Zest of one lemon
  • 10 g salt

Instructions

  1. Feed your sourdough starter about 6-10 hours prior to baking, ensuring it’s bubbly and active.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine 335 g room temperature water and the active starter. Add in the bread flour and mix until no dry flour remains. Cover and let rest for 20-30 minutes.
  3. Sprinkle 10 g salt over the dough along with the remaining 20 g water. Gently knead for about 1-2 minutes until combined.
  4. Begin bulk fermentation by covering the bowl and letting it rest at room temperature for approximately 30 minutes. Stretch and fold every half hour, incorporating blueberries and lemon zest after the first hour.
  5. Allow the dough to rise until doubled in size (approximately 2 hours at room temperature).
  6. Shape your loaf and place it into a proofing basket lined with flour-dusted linen. Let it rise again for another hour or opt for cold fermentation in the fridge for several hours.
  7. Preheat your oven to 500°F (260°C) while your dough is rising.
  8. Score the loaf and bake covered for 20 minutes before lowering the temperature to 400°F (200°C) to bake for an additional 35 minutes or until golden brown.
  9. Cool on a rack before slicing.
