Fibrous Flax Sandwich Loaf
Recipe:
makes a 9inch loaf
100g sourdough starter
470g water
240g whole wheat flour
280g bread flour
50g flax seeds
50g sunflower seeds
19g salt
Method:
Add all ingredients into a stand mixer. Mix on medium speed using a dough hook for around 10 minutes. Allow the dough to bulk ferment at 78 degrees Fahrenheit for 4 hours. After each hour, tension fold the dough to give structure.
After the fourth hour of fermentation, shape the dough by folding the left and the right sides into each other. Then take the top part of the dough to tuck and roll it towards you into a tightly shaped loaf. Then pinch and seal the ends and dust the loaf entirely with flour.
Add the dough into a loaf tin to rise for 3 hours at 78 degrees Fahrenheit. Preheat your oven to 500 degrees Fahrenheit.
Bake for around 1 hour or until the loaf is golden brown. Allow to cool down for at least 2 hours before slicing your loaf. Enjoy.
