Hit us up at email@eatdrinkcheap.ca eatdrinkcheap.ca eadrinkbreathe.com/podcast Music by John Palmer Show notes and Shout Outs: I would argue that when it comes to bread, half (at most) of the final result comes from the recipe.  Far more important is handling and process. You Still Need a Recipe… Probably 400g Flour 400g Starter 200g Water 10g Salt Knead until smooth, place in a banneton or bowl and cover with a clean cloth. Allow to rise for a lot longer than you probably think is necessary. I'll often do overnight. Fresh bread in the morning! Preheat the oven to 450. I recommend having either a baking stone or a dutch oven. GENTLY turn out the loaf. It's basically a balloon at this point and we don't want any of the delicious air to escape.  Okay I lied, we want SOME of the air to escape. Slash the top all fancy. You can use a lame or sharp knife. BAKE! The amount of time is dependant on the equipment currently in your oven. Once done allow to rest for half an hour Only Lovers Left Alive: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1714915/ The Menu: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt9764362/ Delicious in Dungeon: https://www.netflix.com/ca/title/81564899
