Notes

  • You can use bread flour instead of all-purpose flour for a chewier texture.
  • If you don't have a sourdough starter, you can make one by combining equal parts flour and water and letting it sit for a few days until it becomes bubbly and smells sour.
  • If you want a more sour flavor, you can let the dough rise for a longer period of time.
