Tips
- If the leaven floats, it's a sign that it's ready.
- Remove the water from the oven to darken the crust.
- Gently loosen the bread to lift it out of the tin after baking and cooling slightly for easy removal.
- Let the bread cool completely before slicing to ensure the best texture and flavor. This often means waiting several hours or even overnight for rye bread, as it continues to set and develop flavor as it cools.
- While not explicitly stated in the video, letting the sourdough starter mature for several hours (or overnight as indicated) is crucial for proper leavening. The 'doubled in volume' visual cue is a great indicator of readiness.
- The recipe calls for a specific temperature for baking. Ensuring your oven is accurately preheated to these temperatures will prevent issues with the crust and crumb structure. Using an oven thermometer can be helpful.
- The use of a tray with water in the oven creates steam, which is essential for a good crust development in sourdough breads. It helps the crust remain pliable initially, allowing the bread to rise fully before hardening.
