Sourdough three grain bread is a delicious and nutritious bread that is perfect for any occasion. It is made with a combination of whole wheat, rye, and barley flours, which give it a robust flavor and texture. The sourdough starter adds a tangy sourness that balances out the sweetness of the grains. This bread can be made in a bread machine or by hand.

Steps:
- Mix all ingredients in a bread machine using the Manual cycle. That's usually two mix cycles of approximately 15 to 20 minutes with the rise cycle between them of about an hour.
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Form the dough into a single round loaf. Place the loaf on a baking stone or baking sheet which has been lightly oiled and sprinkled with cornmeal. Cover loaf and let rise in a warm place until nearly doubled in size, about 40 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
- Bake in preheated oven for 20 to 30 minutes, until golden brown and loaf sounds hollow when tapped. Let cool on a wire rack.

SOURDOUGH GRAIN & SEED BREAD
This was inspired by recipe #340196, which I love dearly, but wasn't making as much once I discovered sourdough. So I converted it! This is the result. Prep and cooking time does not include rising time, which is approximately 4 hours.

Steps:
- ABM:.
- Place all ingredients (in order listed) in your bread machine, and set to dough cycle. When complete, form into a loaf and place in a greased loaf pan. Allow to rise to doubled. Bake in 375 oven for 40 minutes, until it is golden and passes the knock test. For a more rustic loaf, you can form onto a greased cookie sheet and allow to rise, or better yet, use a baking stone if you have one! You could also allow your bread machine to follow a complete cycle, allowing it to bake in the machine.
- KA or Stand Mixer:.
- Place all ingredients in order listed, in bowl. Mix using dough hook until dough pulls away from sides of bowl. Dough shoud be smooth, slightly damp. Oil a large bowl, and place dough in, swishing it around to coat.
- Allow to rest for 30 minutes. Fold dough (like you would a letter), turn 90 degrees, and repeat foldings. Allow to rest 30 minutes more. Repeat foldings.
- Form into loaf and place in greased loaf pan, or onto a greased cookie sheet. Allow to rise until doubled (2-3 hours.) Bake in a 375 degree oven for approximately 40 minutes, until it is golden and passes the knock test.
- Note #1: To proof your starter, feed it with 1 cup flour (preferably multigrain in this case) and 1 cup water, then let it sit overnight or up to 12 hours, covered. This is what develops the characteristic sour flavor and the longer the proof, the sourer it will be.
- If you start with 1/2 cup of starter and feed it 1 cup each of water and flour, you should have enough to make your bread and save the rest to start your next batch.
- Note #2: To use a baking stone, allow your loaf to rise on parchment paper, placed on a board. Place the stone in the oven when preheating it, allowing it 30 minutes to heat the stone. Move the loaf onto the stone using the parchment paper (you can bake it right on the paper, on the stone.).

SOURDOUGH THREE GRAIN BREAD (ABM)
I was inspired by Donna M's #32194, which I love dearly to create a bread with additional grains which would please my DH & DS, who love multi grain bread. So using her recipe as a guide this is the bread I created today. It turned out a beautiful loaf and was enjoyed by my men. I have to admit for someone who usually isn't fond of multi grain bread I found it pretty tasty too. I used flax seed meal as one of my grains because I heard from a doctor that flax seed is one of the most healthy grains we should be using. It takes so little to have big health advantages as well.

Steps:
- Place ingredients in your bread machine in the order recommended by the instructions of your machine.
- Select the dough cycle and start.
- Listen for the end of the first kneading.
- Do not let it raise in the machine since most sourdough breads especially those using wild yeast since they raise best if only raised once.
- As you take out the dough spray it lightly with a spray oil product to assist in the handling since the dough will be soft.
- Shape into desired shape.
- Let raise until double in size.
- (Sourdough breads usually take 3 to 4 hours to rise if they don't have added yeast.).
- If using a metal loaf pan grease well.
- If using a stoneware loaf pan lightly spray with spray oil then sprinkle sides and bottom with cornmeal.
- If using a round stone simply sprinkle with cornmeal.
- Bake 350 degrees for about 30 minutes.
- Remove immediately from pan, lightly baste top of bread with butter or margarine and cool on a rack before slicing or slice with an electric knife which works well on hot bread.
Tips:
- Make sure all ingredients are at room temperature before starting. This will help the yeast activate more quickly and evenly.
- If you don't have a Dutch oven, you can bake the bread in a regular loaf pan. Just be sure to cover the pan with foil during the first 30 minutes of baking.
- To test if the bread is done, insert a toothpick into the center. If it comes out clean, the bread is done. If it comes out with wet batter, bake for a few more minutes.
- Let the bread cool completely before slicing and serving. This will help the bread hold its shape and prevent it from becoming crumbly.
Conclusion:
This sourdough three-grain bread is a delicious and healthy addition to any meal. It's perfect for sandwiches, toast, or simply slathered with butter and jam. With a little planning, it's easy to make this bread at home. So next time you're looking for a delicious and satisfying bread, give this recipe a try.
