Buckwheat Sourdough Loaf



Take 40g of the starter and add 90g of water and 90g of flour, mix, cover and let stand for 12 hours  If the starter doubles, you should have a starter that is strong enough to make bread. 

357g flour
153g buckwheat flour
12g   salt
365g water
220g active starter

Mix ingredients just until incorporated.  Do not knead.  Place in large container with lid and cover.  Let stand for 1 hour.  Wet you hands and fold the dough over itself from all sides.  The dough should be much smoother then when first mixed.  Cover and let stand 30 minutes.  Wet your hands and fold the dough over itself again.  Repeat these 4 times in total.  After the fourth time, place the dough in the fridge for 24 hours. 
Pre-heat your oven to 230°C.  Remove the dough from the fridge and on a floured surface final shape and place the loaf upside down in a bowl covered with a tea towel or a banneton and dusted with white rice flour.  Cover and let sit at room temperature for an hour.  Once the oven is hot, invert the dough onto the baking tray or Dutch oven.  Score and bake until golden brown or an internal temperature of 90°C.
