Keep Soaking Flour Mixture Submerged In The Soaking Fluid
by: Eryn

You can try adding more whole wheat flour or less liquid to your soaking flour mixture to see if it later requires adding less unsoaked flour to get the dough just right.

With more whole wheat flour or less liquid in your soaking mixture, maybe your soaking mixture might dry out too much - you know, not be well covered in the soaking fluid for the entire soaking time frame.

To soak properly, you want your soaking flour mixture to stay completely submerged in the acidic soaking fluid for the entire length of the soaking period.

Also remember, after your soaked flour mixture is done soaking, you can certainly pour off any excess liquid. That liquid is not needed for your recipe. Pouring off that excess liquid, will decrease the amount of extra unsoaked flour that you will have to add to your mixture to get the dough consistency just right.

What I shared, is just what has worked for me. You can certainly experiment to see what works best for you.

Here is the great homemade bread recipe with soaked flour.

Good luck Tami,
