From what I gathered, all bread baked back then was sourdough, using a sourdough starter. Apparently, it took the bread a long time to rise, too. I decided to bake a loaf of bread just using my sourdough starter (without using any commercial yeast to help it along).<\/p>\n<p>Well, the bread had a great texture, and it was sour, highly sour, but edible! Not sure when I&#8217;m doing that again without commercial yeast. Reason being, it took a LONG TIME to rise. I have a new oven and it has a bread proof setting. So, I left it in my warm environment for about 24 hours! I kneaded it and added more flour to it a few times too.<\/p>\n<p>To make my bread I used:<\/p>\n<p>King Arthur Bread Flour<\/p>\n<p>King Arthur Whole Wheat Flour<\/p>\n<p>Water<\/p>\n<p>An entire cup of sourdough starter!<\/p>\n<p>Olive Oil<\/p>\n<p>Salt<\/p>\n<p>Sugar<\/p>\n<p>When I make it again, I might add a couple of eggs.
