Steps:
- Mixing
- Combine a portion of the water in the recipe with the beetroot and puree until smooth in a blender, food processor, or with an immersion blender.
- Using a mortar and pestle or a mallet and a plastic bag, crush the vitamin C tablet(s) and add the powder to the beetroot puree, mixing thoroughly to dissolve.
- Combine all of the ingredients except the 65g reserved water into a bowl and mix thoroughly. Add some or all of the reserved water based on your preferred dough hydration.
- Gluten Development
- Over the next two hours, stretch and fold or coil fold the dough with about a half-hour rest in between each session. If possible make one of the later gluten development sessions be lamination. The dough is likely wet enough that you won't need water on your counter. Here are videos of the various gluten development techniques.
- At about the three hour mark, refrigerate the dough overnight (or 8-12 hours) in order to develop even more strength. You can also skip this step and simply continue the bulk fermentation until the dough has expanded by 50-75%.
- Pre-Shape, Bench Rest & Shaping
- In the morning, preshape the cold dough and let it rest uncovered on your counter for 20-30 minutes.
- Prep your you banneton liner/tea towel with plenty of flour.
- Shape your dough into the loaf type you prefer. Here's are a variety of different shaping videos.
- Flour the top of the shaped dough, flip it into your banneton, and cover.
- Final Proof & Baking
- Let the dough final proof for about two hours at room temperature, possibly longer if your kitchen temperature is under 70F and shorter if you didn't do the overnight refrigeration (cool dough).
- Preheat your oven to 500F for 30 minutes with your baking vessel inside.
- When the preheat is complete, flip the dough onto a piece of parchment paper, score it, and load it into the baking vessel.
- If using a clay baker, bake the bread:
- 20 minutes covered at 500F
- 10 minutes covered at 450F
- 5-10 minutes uncovered at 450F
- If using a cast iron vessel, add a sheet of foil under the parchment and bake the bread:
- 20 minutes covered at 500F, then add a baking sheet directly under the vessel
- 10 minutes covered at 450F
- 5-10 minutes uncovered at 450F
- Let the bread cool for about 2 hours before slicing.
Tips:
- Choose the right beets: For the best flavor and color, use fresh, deep-purple beets. Avoid beets that are wilted or have blemishes.
- Roast the beets before using them: Roasting the beets intensifies their flavor and makes them easier to peel and grate.
- Use a food processor to grate the beets: This will give you a fine, even grate that will distribute evenly throughout the bread.
- Be careful not to overmix the dough: Overmixing will result in a tough, dense bread. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Let the bread cool completely before slicing: This will help to prevent the bread from crumbling.
