2. Coax the dough from the bowl and on to a clean, lightly floured surface. Stretch and fold the dough a few times and return to the bowl.

Recover with another damp towel, and now allow the sourdough to rise at room temperature overnight, approximately 8-10 hours.

4. Roll up sourdough dough into a log shape. Cover with a damp towel and let the dough rest for about 10 minutes.

5. Lightly spray a 9” x 5” loaf pan with nonstick spray. Transfer the dough to the pan with, seam down. Cover with a towel and let rise for 1-2 hours until it doubles in size.

6. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Bake the bread for 40 minutes, until the crust is a lovely golden brown color.

Remove from the oven and allow the bread to rest for 10 minutes before carefully tipping out of the pan onto a cooling rack. The sourdough sandwich soft bread should completely cooled for at least 1 hour before it is either stored whole or sliced and enjoyed.
