Steps:
- Mix the flour and water, cover and let sit at room temperature 1-2 hours.
- Gently fold in the salt, pausing if the dough starts to tear. Wait 5-10 minutes and then do the same with the starter, cover and mark this as the start of the bulk fermentation.
- Over the next 4-7 hours, perform two (or more) rounds of coil folding and one of lamination.
- Scrape the dough out onto a floured surface, preshape and rest the dough for 20-40 minutes, depending on the feel of the dough (longer if cool and tight).
- Shape the dough and place it in a floured proofing basket to proof anywhere from 1 hour at room temperature to overnight in the refrigerator.
- Preheat your oven and baking vessel for a minimum of 30 minutes at 500F.
- Flip the dough onto parchment paper, score and lift into your baking vessel. Cover, place in the oven and drop the temperature, baking at 450F:
- Covered for 30 minutes
- Uncovered for an additional 10-15 minutes
- Internal temperature should be over 205F.
SOURDOUGH FOCACCIA (YEAST VERSION TOO)
Focaccia with a touch of whole grain wheat is a delicious treat but also a contender to be an everyday bread. The olive oil goodness and variety of topping options make it infinitely interesting. This recipe allows you to choose sourdough leavening or yeast leavening with a similar time frame of fermentation for good flavor development.

Steps:
- Mixing and Bulk Fermentation
- Add all of the ingredients in the bowl of a stand mixer and mix on low speed for about 2 minutes with the paddle attachment, and medium speed for another 8 minutes with the dough hook, scraping down the sides of the bowl with a spatula a few times. If you don't have a stand mixer, you can mix by hand for about 15 minutes, letting your arm and the dough rest between short bouts of effort.
- Move the dough to a lightly oiled bowl and cover. Mark this as the beginning of your bulk fermentation.
- After a 30 minute rest, stretch and fold, or coil fold, the dough four times (every 20-40 minutes) over the next 2-3 hours. Wet your hands before handling the dough, and cover the dough afterward.
- Leave the dough to continue bulk fermenting for 3-6 more hours until it has almost doubled and is bubbly. The yeast version of this recipe bulk fermented for a little over 5 hours total, about the same as the sourdough version.
- Final Proof and Topping
- Prep a parchment lined baking pan with about 2 Tbsp of olive oil (parchment is optional if the pan is non-stick). Make sure to go up the sides of the parchment/pan.
- Gently scrape the dough onto the parchment. With oily fingers pull and press the dough outward to the edges of the pan, dimpling it with oily fingertips.
- Cover the pan with plastic wrap or put it inside two clean plastic grocery bags. I use binder clips to keep the bags from touching and sticking to the dough (see gallery).
- Let proof 1-2 hours at room temperature (or overnight in the refrigerator, plus another 2-4 hours to warm up in the morning). The dough should look thicker and have some bubbles when the final proof is over.
- Baking
- Preheat your oven to 450F for 20 minutes with an inverted baking sheet (or 30 minutes with a pizza stone) one shelf up from the bottom shelf.
- Drizzle oil on the top of the dough (thumb over spout of oil bottle or using spoonfuls), dimple it again if you'd like, add toppings and finally sprinkle it with coarse salt.
- Put the focaccia pan in the oven on top of the hot baking sheet. Bake 15 minutes, then rotate the pan and bake an additional 10-15 minutes. (The bake time is the same for 9x13 and 13x18 pans.)
- The internal temperature of the focaccia should be at least 200F.
- Remove the focaccia from the pan and parchment, and let cool on a rack for about 20 minutes before serving. Leftovers can be wrapped in the parchment you baked it in.

- Add all the ingredients to a small bowl and stir to combine. Place the levain in a warm spot, preferably around 78°F/26°C for 5 hours or until it has doubled/tripled in size.
- Four hours after you prepared the levain: Add flours and water to a large mixing bowl and mix until combined. How much water you will need depends on your flour and experience handling high hydration doughs. My recommendation is to start low with 270 grams of water and add more if needed. Cover the bowl and rest/autolyse for 1 hour until the levain is ready.
- Place your Bread Pan or large Dutch oven in the oven. Preheat for 45-60 minutes at 500°F/260°C.
