Ingredients
Preferment:
-
1 cup milk
-
½ cup sourdough starter
-
2 cups all-purpose flour
Dough:
-
1 tablespoon white sugar
-
1 teaspoon baking soda
-
½ teaspoon salt
-
½ cup unbleached all-purpose flour
-
1 tablespoon cornmeal, or as needed
Directions
-
Stir milk and sourdough starter together in a large bowl until mostly smooth. Mix in flour. Cover bowl and leave to ferment at room temperature, 8 hours to overnight.
-
Add sugar, baking soda, and salt to the preferment, stirring just enough to incorporate. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured work surface. Knead for 4 to 5 minutes, adding as much of the 1/2 cup flour as needed to make the dough workable.
-
Use a rolling pin to flatten dough to an even 1/2-inch thickness. Cut into 4-inch rounds using a clean tuna can or biscuit cutter; keep edges well floured to avoid sticking.
-
Sprinkle a thin layer of cornmeal over a sheet of waxed paper. Arrange cut-outs over the cornmeal. Sprinkle a thin layer over the dough. Let rest for 45 minutes.
-
Heat a griddle or cast iron skillet over medium-low heat. Cook English muffins until lightly browned, 5 to 6 minutes. Cool on a wire rack.
Cook’s Note
You will be surprised at the amount of oven-spring these muffins have. They jump right up from the heat of the griddle. Trial and error is how you will find the correct temperature to cook your muffins. Each stovetop is different, which makes it hard to guide on that.
