Baked with the same sourdough culture for centuries within its geographical boundaries, Ovacik Loaf Bread is kneaded using additive-free flour and local spring waters. Slowly cooked in wood-fired stone ovens, the bread has a hard, crispy exterior and a porous, soft interior. You can obtain this bread, which does not go stale for days, fresh from the historical bakeries in the district center shown on the Harita.
Ingredients
- 1 kilogram of local wheat flour
- 1 cup of traditional sourdough
- 3 cups of warm spring water
- 1 tablespoon of rock salt
- 1 teaspoon of honey (to accelerate fermentation)
Preparation
- Sift the flour into a large wooden trough, open the center like a pool, and add the sourdough and warm water.
- Add the rock salt and knead the dough thoroughly for at least 20 minutes until it becomes smooth.
- Cover the kneaded dough and leave it for the first fermentation at room temperature for about 4-5 hours.
- Shape the fermented dough into a loaf, place it on a floured counter, and then bake it in a wood-fired stone oven.
