Christmas present Breads

Orange Honey Polenta bread made a nice breakfast treat for my neighbors

I made four 700gm loafs which were nice gift size .  This bread makes a great morning toast with jam. The formula is below.









I used my excel spreadsheet to come up with the proportions

Total desired Bread Weight (gm) --> 2800.0 98.6
Desired Bread  Hydration % 65.00%
Desired  % of Starter you want in the dough 20.00% 560.0 19.7
What is the Hydration of the Starter, biga, or poolish you are using 65.00%
Your starter hydration contains : Flour 339.4 12.0
Water  220.6 7.8
Total Flour to add at desired % hydration Minus Flour already in Starter 1357.6 47.8
Total Water to add at desired % hydration minus Water already in Starter 882.4 31.1
Desired Flour Mix - (Must add to 100%) 100.0%
