Bread Loaf

Hello my friends!

After the huge success of my express baguettes without kneading, I thought it would be nice to give you a bread recipe made with leaven!

So here is my bread loaf.

I decided to post this recipe today to answer to Anita’s challenge (on Instagram @sourdoughmania) !She just launched an ebook in english with 216 pages dedicated to leaven (levain) bread and all ways to make art with it! You’ll learn how to shape breads, how to score, paint and so much more!  Anita makes such beautiful things, you should check it out! Besides, if you buy her ebook, you’ll get 45 tutorial videos! And finally, for each ebook purchased, 1 euro is given to a fundation helping children in need. It’s a lovely way to get something nice and do good for other. And with the code EMMA10, you’ll get a 10% discount!

So give it a try!!

Let’s see the recipe now, Chef!

      Bonjour Marie,
      La cocotte est sans couvercle. Et je sors mon levain 20 min environ avant de l’utiliser.
