15 minutes. Shape into loaves and let the dough rise again for about 20 minutes.
Bake at 375�F. for 1 1/2 to 1 3/4 hours, until crusty and firm
to touch. Let cool completely, preferably overnight; then slice thinly with a
serrated knife. Bread will keep, wrapped and stored in refrigerator for two

Starter:
Note: You can make a yeast-leavened sourdough starter from commercial yeast in 6
to 8 hours.
2 T. lukewarm (100�F) water
1/8 t. active dry yeast or instant yeast
3/4 C. room-temperature (72�F to 75�F) water
2 C. bread flour
In a large mixing bowl, combine lukewarm water and yeast, until yeast is
dissolved, about 5 minutes. Stir room-temperature water and flour into the yeast
mixture. Mix by hand for about 5 minutes, or with mixer on medium speed for 2
minutes, until the dough is smooth and firm.
Place dough in lightly greased medium ceramic, glass or plastic bowl. Cover
dough tightly with plastic wrap and let rise at room temperature until tripled
in volume, 6 to 8 hours. Punch the risen starter down and roll into a ball. Use
it immediately or return it to the bowl, cover and refrigerate for up to 48
hours before using.
Makes 2 cups.
