I bought a boule of sourdough at the grocery that was labelled:
"Goldminer California Sourdough" "Baked Fresh Daily" They give a website: www.californiagoldminer.com but it is not helpful to the home baker. On the package they speak about "California Goldminer relies on the 24-hour fermentation process ..." What "24-hour fermentation process"? I have seen extented fermentation processes, but I do not recall any that went as long as 24 hours. Do you do this 24-hour fermentation process in the refrigerator or at room temperature (75-80F)? How many times and when do you punch down - when it doubles? How much of that 24-hour period is used for the final rise before baking - or is that a separate time period? The bread was indeed quite sour which I suppose is the result of a long fermentation. |
