100% Hydration. Amazing Sourdough. Crystal Bread. | by JoyRideCoffee

100% hydration Sourdough Crystal Bread. After the low hydration bread (64%) that I published in the last video here on my channel () I wanted to do an experiment with the same flour using a high hydration 100%. Many people say that it is very difficult to make this very high hydration bread. Through this video I tried to show that the method is quite simple. Others refuse to make such bread on the grounds that butter or jam does not sit on it. But this is a totally special bread that is not commonly eaten with butter. But taste is amazing. I mixed 325g of water with 325g of Manitoba Casillo (13% protein) and let them to autolyse for an hour. Then I kneaded by hand (Rubaud method) with 65g starter. After 30 minutes of rest I kneaded again by hand with salt. I did 5 coil folds (30 minutes between) after which I had to leave home. The total bulk at room temperature 22-23 deg. C (calculated from the moment I put the starter in) was 8 hours and 30 minutes.
