Ron The is The Best Sourdough Bread I made and posted Photo...
As you know I have been working to improve my Sourdough Journey.
4.24.2020 (At this time I could NOT find Bread Flour and made this recipe:
2 Loaves 9 x 5 tins: 6 1/2 cups All Purpose Flour 1/4 cup honey
1/4 cup canola oil 2 tsp salt 1 teaspoon yeast 1 cup sourdough
starter 2 3/4 cups very warm water Mix by hands or in a mixer. I use
a mixer. Place 3 cups of AP Flour and all other ingredients in a mixer
mix and let it rest 10 minutes. After 10 minutes add 3 more cups of flour.
(Always add the last 3 cups little at a time). Remember: If too dry add
more water...if too wet add more flour) Knead. Place in a greased bowl
for 2 - 4 hours to rise. When double divide dough in 1/2 and shape into
loaves. 9 x 5 tins. Rise top of tin. 1-2hoursView attachment 2183070 Bake 375 degree oven or 30 minutes.
Brush tops with butter. Another tip: slice bread when cooled upside
down. Aria

Wanted to post: I recently purchased (arrived today) from Amazon
Anthony's Premium Vital Wheat Gluten. I will be adding to my Sourdough Breads. Ron, looking for you input. Do you think 1 teaspoon for each cup of flour would be best. I think to get a high rise
in Sourdough Breads this would help. How much? Thanks Aria

I would start with a quarter of a cup in a single loaf and see if you like it.

It usually does not take that much.

Yes!

Be sure to mix the vital gluten with the flour dry and then add to liquid in the recipe
