I made a starter using the organic strawberry yeast water which I successfully cultivated. With this very fragrant sourdough starter, some fresh strawberries and the leftover strawberry yeast water, I came up with a recipe and baked a sourdough loaf smelling and tasting of strawberry!

    Place the dough in the fridge for 24 – 48 hours (in my case, 67 hours!).

  8. 8

    Take the dough from the fridge, pre-shape directly. Bench rest for 5 minutes. Then final shape and place the dough in the banneton basket.

  9. 9

    Final proof the dough in room temperature for 40 minutes and place the dough in the freezer for 20 minutes.

  10. 10

    Pre-heat the oven, baking stone and Pyrex glass lid at 250°C for 1 hour.
