Categories     Bread     Yeast Bread Recipes     Sourdough Bread Recipes

Time P1DT20m

Yield 5

Number Of Ingredients 4

¾ teaspoon active dry yeast
½ cup warm water
3 ½ cups unbleached bread flour
1 ¼ cups cold water

Steps:

  • Place the warm water in a small bowl, and sprinkle the yeast over the top. Let stand until yeast has dissolved and is foamy, about 15 minutes.
  • Measure flour into a large bowl. Make a well in the center, and pour in the yeast mixture and cold water. Use a sturdy spoon to mix it together until sticky and difficult to stir, but nevertheless thoroughly combined. Cover and allow to ferment for 24 hours in the refrigerator before using.
  • Store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. To use, rinse a measuring cup in cool water, scoop out the amount of starter needed, and bring to room temperature.

ITALIAN BIGA RECIPE | LEITE'S CULINARIA

2012-03-06 Adapted from Carol Field | The Italian Baker | Ten Speed Press, 2011. Many of the recipes for classic regional breads, such as this ciabatta recipe, begin with a starter dough made from small amounts of flour, water, and yeast allowed an initial fermentation.The starter, known as biga …

  • Stir the remaining water into the creamy yeast mixture, and then stir in the flour, 1 cup at a time. If mixing by hand, stir with a wooden spoon for 3 to 4 minutes. If mixing with a stand mixer, beat with the paddle at the lowest speed for 2 minutes. If mixing with a food processor, mix just until a sticky dough forms.
  • Transfer the biga to a lightly oiled bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and let rise at cool room temperature for 6 to 24 hours, until the starter is triple its original volume but is still wet and sticky. (The bakers I admire most advise 10 to 11 hours for the first rise, but others are very happy with the 24 hours it takes for dough to truly become yesterday’s dough, and if you like sour bread, allow your biga to rest for 24 to 48 hours or even 72 hours.)
  • Cover and refrigerate or freeze the biga until ready to use. (If refrigerating the biga, use within 5 days. If freezing the biga, let it rest at room temperature for about 3 hours until it is bubbly and active again.) When needed, scoop out the desired amount of biga for your recipe and proceed. I strongly recommend weighing the biga rather than measuring it by volume since it expands at room temperature. If measuring by volume, measure chilled biga; if measuring by weight, the biga may be chilled or at room temperature.

  • First, dissolve the yeast into your jug of water. Place your flour in the bowl of your stand mixer, and pour the wet ingredients on top.
  • With a metal spoon, roughly mix the ingredients together. Then, use your hands to firmly squeeze and grip the dough, pulling and tearing until all the flour is combined.
  • Transfer the mix to an airtight container, scraping down the sides of the bowl with your hands. Feel the dough for consistency: you should be left with dryish, sticky clumps. Cover and leave to ferment for 16 hours at room temperature.
  • Once the Biga has had time to ferment, you’re ready to prepare your dough. The ferment develops a complex structure in the Biga, which after 16 hours should be soft and stretchy.
