Make the sourdough the night before. Mix the ingredients together, cover, and let rest overnight. On the day you’re baking, take 50g of the sourdough starter as a starter for the next day, and use the remaining sourdough for the bread. Knead the sourdough with the ingredients for the main dough until a smooth dough forms. Let the dough rest for about 15 minutes, then knead using the stretch-and-fold method and form two long strands the size of the loaf pans. Lightly grease both loaf pans. Place the strands in the loaf pans, cover, and let rise for 2-3 hours. Preheat the oven to 230°C (top/bottom heat). Pierce the loaves several times with a skewer or score them with a knife and bake for 15 minutes on the middle rack. Then reduce the oven temperature to 200°C (top/bottom heat) and bake the loaves for about 30-40 minutes. The ingredients are enough for two king cake tins with a length of 25 cm.
