      Title: KING ARTHUR - MERLIN'S MAGIC SOURDOUGH BREAD
 Categories: Breads
      Yield: 6 Servings
 
      1 c  Sourdough starter
    1/2 c  Warm water
      1 tb Active dry yeast
      3 tb Vital wheat gluten
      1 tb Salt
    1/4 c  Olive oil
      5 c  (approx.) King Arthur
           -Unbleached All-Purpose
 
  Flour
  
  Mix the starter, water, yeast and gluten together.
  Add 3 cups of the flour.  Cover with a damp towel and
  let this sponge sit overnight. The next day, add the
  salt, oil, and stir in flour until the dough is a
  shaggy mass. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured
  counter and knead the dough adding more flour as
  necessary until the dough is a smooth ball. The dough
  should not be sticky.  Place the dough in a lightly
  oiled bowl and let the dough rise for about 2 hours.
  The dough should double in size.
  
  Punch down the dough and divide it into 2 pieces.
  Knead each piece briefly on a lightly floured counter.
  Form each piece into a round ball and place on a
  baking sheet that has been greased and sprinkled with
  cornmeal. Cover the loaves with a damp towel and let
  them rise for 45 to 60 minutes or until slightly
  swollen.  While the loaves are fising, preheat the
  oven to 375 degrees.  Make 3 slashes that are about 4"
  long and 1/2" deep on the top of each loaf. This will
  help the loaves to rise evenly in the oven. Bake for
  35 minutes or until browned and the bottoms sound
  hollow when thumped.
