Quarry tile bread

1 Loaf

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
2 cups Expanded sourdough
1⅓ cup Flour
1 teaspoon Salt
1 teaspoon Sugar
3/16 cup Water (eyeball it =85 this is a weird measurement because I converted this recipe to sourdough from a yeast bread recipe)
1 tablespoon Olive oil
Additional flour

Directions

Bake on unglazed tile or a pizza stone on the bottom rack of oven to make it nice and crusty. Or bake it in a greased bread pan.

Mix all ingredients and knead, adding flour until dough is no longer sticky. Let rise until doubled in volume. Punch out bubbles and form loaf, let rise until doubled in volume. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Bake 30-40 minutes or however long it takes to brown nicely all over. I lined a small Corning dish with a dish towel and let the bread rise in it. I took it out by lifting it out by the towel edges, transferred it to one hand and quickly put it on the stone right side up.
