Pão de Fermentação Natural offers a complex flavor profile characterized by tangy acidity, subtle sweetness, and a nutty, earthy undertone. The crust provides a satisfying crunch, contrasting with the soft, slightly chewy interior.
The primary flavors stem from the fermentation process itself. The sourdough starter, a culture of wild yeasts and bacteria, produces lactic and acetic acids, contributing to the bread's characteristic tang. The long fermentation also develops complex sugars, resulting in a subtle sweetness. The type of flour used influences the overall taste; traditional Portuguese flours often lend a nutty, earthy note. The crust's flavor comes from the Maillard reaction, caramelizing sugars and amino acids during baking.

Starter Maintenance
Maintain a healthy and active sourdough starter by feeding it regularly with equal parts flour and water. The frequency of feeding depends on whether the starter is kept at room temperature or in the refrigerator.
Autolyse
Before mixing the dough, allow the flour and water to sit together for 30-60 minutes. This process, called autolyse, helps to hydrate the flour and develop gluten, resulting in a more extensible dough.
Proofing Time
Adjust the proofing time based on the ambient temperature. Warmer temperatures will accelerate fermentation, while cooler temperatures will slow it down. Over-proofing can lead to a flat, dense loaf.
Scoring
Scoring the bread before baking allows for controlled expansion during baking. Use a sharp knife or lame to make deep cuts in the surface of the dough.
