Ingredients

  1. flour - 500g (preferably whole wheat or high protein for better water absorption)
  2. water - 400g (too much for this recipe, causing overhydration)
  3. sourdough starter - 50g
  4. salt - 10g

Instructions

  1. Mixing the ingredients: Combine flour, water, sourdough starter, and salt without properly adjusting hydration, leading to overhydrated dough.
  2. Attempting to fix: Add more flour in an attempt to correct the hydration, though this disrupts the balance of other ingredients.
