Notes

  • The sourdough starter — For best results, your sourdough starter should be matured, regularly fed, and maintained for at least a week. Make sure that it’s bubbly and active, with a sour and pleasant taste.
 
  • Kneading the dough — In our King Arthur sourdough bread recipe, we used our own hands for kneading the dough, but you could also use a hand mixer for an easier and shorter time with guaranteed results.
