SOURDOUGH BEER BREAD RECIPE



Sourdough Beer Bread Recipe image

So, thought I, what could be better than to put beer and bread together? And thus was born the experimentation that resulted in this recipe for Sourdough Beer Bread.

Provided by Galen Saturley

Number Of Ingredients 6

400 grams - Bread Flour
100 grams - Whole Wheat Red Fife Flour
345 grams - Any 12oz bottle of Beer. I used a Milk Stout brewed by Left Hand Brewing company
75 grams - Pure Water
80 grams - Sourdough Starter
12 grams - Salt

Steps:

  • Pour 345g of room temperature beer into a bowl and mix thoroughly to release the carbonation.
  • Add 500g flour mixture to the beer and mix until thoroughly incorporated into a shaggy mass. Cover and let sit (autolyse) at room temp (~72F) for 2 to 3 hours.
  • Combine 12 grams of salt, 75 grams of water, and 80g of starter, mix thoroughly and then add to the dough. Fold repeatedly until everything is thoroughly mixed together and dough begins to feel smooth.
  • Cover mixing bowl and let sit for approximately 1 hour. Then fold the dough 8 times (8 single folds).
  • Cover mixing bowl and let sit for approximately 12 hours at room temp (~72F) or until volume of dough doubles (optionally stretch and fold periodically).
  • Turn out fermented dough on a lightly floured work surface and shape into your preferred loaf (boule, batard...) and then place dough into a well floured (rice flour is preferred) proofing basket; cover and let sit at room temperature (~72F) for about 1 hour.
  • After 30 minutes or so, place your preferred baking vessel (I like to use a Breadtopia Clay Baker) in the oven and preheat to 500F (or your vessel's maximum safe temperature).
  • With dough fully risen and oven pre-heated, gently transfer the dough from the proofing basket to the baking vessel, score the top of the loaf, and then bake at 500F with top on for 20 minutes.
  • Turn oven temperature down to 450F and bake for 10 minutes.
  • Remove the top of the baking vessel and bake for ~20 minutes or until color of crust is as desired and internal loaf temperature is at least 200F.
  • Take the loaf out of the oven and place it on a cooling rack and let it cool at least 1 hour before cutting.

Time 3h40m

Yield 1 Loaf

Number Of Ingredients 22

2/3 cup beer
1/4 cup water
4 teaspoons oil
2 cups bread flour
2 teaspoons sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon active dry yeast
1 cup beer
1/3 cup water
2 tablespoons oil
3 cups bread flour
3 tablespoons sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 teaspoons active dry yeast
1 1/3 cups beer
1/2 cup water
2 tablespoons oil
2 teaspoons oil
4 cups bread flour
4 tablespoons sugar
2 teaspoons salt
2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast (.25 ounce)

Steps:

  • BREAD MACHINE METHOD:.
  • Have liquid ingredients at 80º F and all others at room temperature. Place into the pan in the order listed. Select a basic cycle and medium/normal crust. Check dough consistency after 5 minutes of kneading. The dough should be in a soft, tacky ball. If it is dry and stiff, add beer, 1/2 to 1 tablespoon at a time. If it is too wet and sticky, add 1 tablespoon of flour at a time. Remove bread when cycle is finished; cool.
  • MIXER METHODS:.
  • Using ingredient amounts listed for the medium loaf, combine 1 cup flour, sugar, salt and yeast. Combine beer, water and oil; heat to 120 to 130ºF.
  • HAMD-HELD MIXER METHOD:.
  • Combine dry mixture and liquid ingredients in mixing bowl on low speed. Beat 2 to 3 minutes on medium speed. By hand, stir in enough remaining flour to make a firm dough. Knead on floured surface 5 to 7 minutes or until smooth and elastic. Use additional flour if necessary.
  • STAND MIXER METHOD:.
  • Combine dry mixture and liquid ingredients in mixing bowl with paddle or beaters for 4 minutes on medium speed. Beat 2 to 3 minutes. Using dough hook(s), gradually add enough remaining flour to make a firm dough. Use additional flour if necessary. Knead 5 to 7 minutes until smooth and elastic.
  • FOOD PROCESSOR METHOD:.
  • Have all ingredients at room temperature. Put dry mixture in processing bowl with steel blade. While motor is running, add liquid ingredients. Process until mixed. Continue processing, adding remaining flour until dough forms a ball.
  • RISING, SHAPING AND BAKING:.
  • Place dough in lightly oiled bowl and turn to grease top. Cover; let rise until dough tests ripe (usually doubling in size 1-2 hours). Turn dough onto lightly floured surface; punch down to remove air bubbles. Roll or pat into a 14- x 7-inch rectangle. Starting with shorter side, roll up tightly pressing dough into roll. Pinch edges and ends to seal. Place seam-side down on large greased cookie sheet (or pizza stone) sprinkled with cornmeal. With very sharp knife, make 3 or 4 diagonal slashes across top of loaf. Cover; let rise until indentation remains after lightly touching with the index finger. Bake in preheated 375ºF oven 30 to 40 minutes. Remove from cookie sheet or pizza stone; cool.

Tips

  • Use a good quality sourdough starter. This will give your bread a better flavor and texture.
  • Make sure your ingredients are at room temperature before you start baking. This will help the bread rise evenly.
  • Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing can make the bread tough.
  • Let the bread rise in a warm place. This will help it rise properly.
  • Bake the bread at a high temperature for a short period of time. This will give it a crispy crust and a soft interior.
  • Let the bread cool completely before slicing it. This will help prevent it from crumbling.
