The healthiest bread. It is done very easily, the main thing is to make the right leaven.

For sourdough, you need to take a handful of raisins (soak to swell) or grapes, grind, just mash with your hands. Pour into a 1 liter jar, add 1 glass of warm water, 1 hour of sugar, 5 tablespoons with a slide of flour. Close with a nylon lid and put in a warm place, on the battery, until it ferments for about 2-3 days (put the jar in a saucepan, otherwise the lid may rip off and it will turn over). Then strain through a sieve, discard the raisins, pour the sourdough back into the jar and add 1 glass of warm water, 1 tsp of sugar and 5 tablespoons with a slide of flour and put in a warm place for another day.

The most difficult thing has been done, now this leaven can live indefinitely, only you need to make bread once a week or revive the leaven. So if we do not make bread, pour out the leaven, leaving 1-2 cm of liquid in the jar. Now add here 1 glass of warm water, 1 hour of sugar, 5 tablespoons with a heap of flour, leave for 3 hours at room temperature, then put in the refrigerator. We store the leaven in the REFRIGERATOR.

Making bread: we get the leaven from the refrigerator 2-3 hours in advance to warm up, it should be all in small bubbles. Before kneading the dough, I turn on the oven at 100 degrees and put the bread pan (I have a glass one) to warm up. We knead the bread: pour a glass of warm water into a bowl, a sourdough (not forgetting to leave 1-2 cm of liquid) 1 tsp of salt and sugar, 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil and 16 tablespoons with a heap of flour (I take 6 lohek of bran or whole grain flour). Mix everything thoroughly and pour into a mold. The mold needs to be greased, I still put baking paper on the bottom. I have an oval shape of 20 by 30 and it turns out to be complete, if you take a round one, you need at least 25 cm in diameter. So pour the dough into a mold and tighten it with a film, as in the photo.

We put in a warm oven, reduce the heat to 50-60 degrees, and wait until it increases by 3 times, it will take 2-3 hours. Remove the film and bake for 1 hour at 200 degrees.

You can add different flours to the dough, some oatmeal and seeds, bread croutons with seeds are very tasty.

Additional tips:

1) It is better to steam the bran with boiling water and wait until the mass becomes warm, now you can add sourdough and everything else.

2) You can also knead the tough dough by kneading with your hands and leave to come up in a closed, turned off oven overnight. The bread is fine-perforated, soft.

3) If you took the leaven out of the refrigerator and it is liquid and does not bubble when it stands in a warm place, then add more flour so that there is a very thick sour cream consistency.

You can put the starter culture from the refrigerator in the oven at 50 degrees right in the jar and it will be ready to use very quickly.
