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.

Yield makes about 18 ounces (enough for Ciabatta, Biga Version, page 140; or Italian Bread, page 172)

Number Of Ingredients 3

2 1/2 cups (11.25 ounces) unbleached bread flour
1/2 teaspoon (.055 ounce) instant yeast
3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons to 1 cup (7 to 8 ounces) water, at room temperature

Steps:

  • Stir together the flour and yeast in a 4-quart bowl (or in the bowl of an electric mixer). Add 3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons of the water, stirring until everything comes together and makes a coarse ball (or mix on low speed for 1 minute with the paddle attachment). Adjust the flour or water, according to need, so that the dough is neither too sticky nor too stiff. (It is better to err on the sticky side, as you can adjust easier during kneading. It is harder to add water once the dough firms up.)
  • Sprinkle some flour on the counter and transfer the dough to the counter. Knead for 4 to 6 minutes (or mix on medium speed with the dough hook for 4 minutes), or until the dough is soft and pliable, tacky but not sticky. The internal temperature should be 77° to 81°F.
  • Lightly oil a bowl and transfer the dough to the bowl, rolling it around to coat it with oil. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and ferment at room temperature for 2 to 4 hours, or until it nearly doubles in size.
  • Remove the dough from the bowl, knead it lightly to degas, and return it to the bowl, covering the bowl with plastic wrap. Place the bowl in the refrigerator overnight. You can keep this in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, or freeze it in an airtight plastic bag for up to 3 months.
  • Commentary
  • Biga will keep in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, or in the freezer for about 3 months. You can use it as soon as it ferments, but just as for poolish and pâte fermentée, I prefer to give it an overnight retarding to bring out more flavor
  • In Italy nearly every pre-ferment, including wild yeast or sourdough, is called a biga. So if you are making a recipe from another source that calls for biga, make sure you check to see exactly what kind of biga it requires. In this book, biga refers to the particular ratio of ingredients listed here.
  • You can substitute all-purpose flour for the bread flour if you prefer, or blend all-purpose and bread flour as in pâte fermentée.

  • 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.
