Turmeric Sourdough Bread 姜黄酸种面包( 77% Hydrations)

This is a simple sourdough bread and all you need to have are time and patience. It takes around a day to make it but it is worth it, especially since you don’t need to be hands on the entire time. Just a little time here and there and you have a lovely homemade loaf ready to eat.

Turmeric is said to have multiple properties which are beneficial for our health. I am neither qualified to approve or disprove this. But I can tell you turmeric gives a beautiful flavour and colour to this loaf.  

What a compliment by added some roasted curry leaves in the dough! They have added an extra flavour and fragence to the dough. I could smell the curry leaves while the sourdough was baking in the oven. So nice!!😘

This Turmeric sourdough bread is used sourdough discard to make. I just fed the sourdough discard with the ratio of 25:50:50 and used at peak.

This Turmeric sourdough bread I made into a round ball (bulle) instead of oval shape (batard). And I did some simple scores on the dough. The outcome was great after it was baked.😍






I baked two sourdough today. 👆The other one is Starry Night Sourdough.
