Cheater Sourdough Bread
Lite sourdough flavour, but incredibly easy to make with basic ingredients and limited kitchen time. I use this recipe when on-shift at a work camp and let the dough sit overnight.
Chef’s notes
The only gotcha is that a cast-iron pot with a lid is a must. Plain cast iron or enamel works, I alternate between both at home and work.
