I just recently bought feta cheese, labneh, olives, tahini, and also dried oregano at a Greek grocery store and also this got me desire a sourdough bread with flavors from Greek cuisine. Particularly, I desired bread with fragrant natural herbs and tahini (sesame paste) to couple with the feta as well as labneh. Labneh is an extra-strained full fat yogurt with salt that’s also called kefir cheese. It is so scrumptious, specifically with this bread.

I made use of grown hard red spring wheat flour at 30% of the total flour, but an additional red wheat or durum or khorasan Might be wonderful. Depending on your flour options, the water quantity in the recipe may need to go up or down. For example, if you use just whole grain flour, the dough will certainly require extra water. Or if you use a much less absorbing whole grain flour, such as einkorn, the dough will certainly require much less water.
It is constantly more secure to begin with a dryer dough because you can add water during the rounds of gluten development, specifically the lamination. It after that adheres to that if your dough gets on the too-wet side, work in the additions via folding and also kneading instead of lamination which includes water to the dough.

That said, if you simply mix all-in as well as pay no added focus to the dough before shaping, your bread will certainly still appear fine. If your mass fermentation is fairly fast and/or cozy, it may be a smidge flatter. If you give the dough time to strengthen on its own, it will certainly have a nice appearance and height.
You can decrease your process by utilizing chilly water in the mixing or much less sourdough starter in the dough (substitute a few of the starter with simple water and flour), and obviously, by cooling the dough for some section of the bulk fermentation or last proof.
