<p class="">Are you seeking a super soft sandwich bread recipe that is more similar to white bread, but has all the nutritional power of fresh-milled flour? This recipe is one that I worked on for some time making tweaks to over and over until it was perfection.  It has touches of butter and honey which make it rich and slightly sweet.  Our youngest daughter doesn&#8217;t like wheat bread and loves this sandwich bread! We have incorporated a couple of tricks utilizing the tangzhong method which makes this the recipe you need to try!  It makes excellent sandwiches, toast, grilled cheese, or french toast.  It&#8217;s so much better than store-bought bread!</p>

<div class="wprm-recipe-summary wprm-block-text-normal"><span style="display: block;">After so many revisions, my Pullman Tangzhong Sourdough Sandwich Loaf Recipe is finally here!  This recipe produces a very soft almost white bread like sandwich bread, but with all the benefits of fresh-milled flour.  Baking it in the Pullman 13 will square off the slices which make perfect toast, sandwiches, or grilled cheese.  Even your pickiest eaters will love it!  This recipe is for one loaf, but you can double it if you have two Pullman 13 pans.</span></div>

Temperature affects how quickly the dough will rise and how quickly it will cool off with the overnight cold proof step.  I highly suggest that you read and then download and print the chart I have referenced in the notes section of this recipe.   We will not be going based on a bulk fermentation time, but rather a percentage.  Your goal percentage will vary by season, house temperature, water temperature, etc.  If it is really cold in your house, you can get a seedling mat relatively inexpensively to put under your dough to keep it warm.</span></div><div class="wprm-recipe-instruction-media wprm-recipe-instruction-image"><img decoding="async" loading="lazy" width="225" height="300" src="https://ourrootedmess.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/img_3637-225x300.webp" class="attachment-medium size-medium" alt="" srcset="https://ourrootedmess.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/img_3637-225x300.webp 225w, https://ourrootedmess.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/img_3637-768x1024.webp 768w, https://ourrootedmess.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/img_3637-450x600.webp 450w, https://ourrootedmess.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/img_3637-1152x1536.webp 1152w, https://ourrootedmess.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/img_3637-720x960.webp 720w, https://ourrootedmess.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/img_3637-360x480.webp 360w, https://ourrootedmess.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/img_3637-180x240.webp 180w, https://ourrootedmess.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/img_3637.webp 1500w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px" /></div> </li><li id="wprm-recipe-721-step-0-11" class="wprm-recipe-instruction" style="list-style-type: decimal;"><div class="wprm-recipe-instruction-text" style="margin-bottom: 5px;"><span style="display: block;">Once the dough reaches your goal bulk fermentation percentage,  it should have bubbles all the way through the dough and you are ready to proceed with shaping your loaves.</span></div><div class="wprm-recipe-instruction-media wprm-recipe-instruction-image"><img decoding="async" loading="lazy" width="227" height="300" src="https://ourrootedmess.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/img_3703-227x300.jpg" class="attachment-medium size-medium" alt="Sourdough bulk fermentation complete" srcset="https://ourrootedmess.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/img_3703-227x300.jpg 227w, https://ourrootedmess.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/img_3703-775x1024.jpg 775w, https://ourrootedmess.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/img_3703-768x1015.jpg 768w, https://ourrootedmess.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/img_3703-1162x1536.jpg 1162w, https://ourrootedmess.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/img_3703-720x952.jpg 720w, https://ourrootedmess.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/img_3703-360x476.jpg 360w, https://ourrootedmess.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/img_3703-180x238.jpg 180w, https://ourrootedmess.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/img_3703.jpg 1284w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 227px) 100vw, 227px" /></div> </li><li id="wprm-recipe-721-step-0-12" class="wprm-recipe-instruction" style="list-style-type: decimal;"><div class="wprm-recipe-instruction-text" style="margin-bottom: 5px;"><span style="display: block;">Dump your dough out onto your counter.

A simple score is to cut down the middle on both sides creating 4 sections on a round loaf.

This allows us to pull the bread out of the freezer in smaller portions to thaw and use. We keep a few slices at a time in the refrigerator that way it never goes bad on us. When the big bag in the freezer gets low, it&#8217;s time to make more.</span></span></div></div>

Temperature affects how quickly the dough will rise and how quickly it will cool off with the overnight cold proof step.  I highly suggest that you read and then download and print the chart I have referenced in the notes section of this recipe.   We will not be going based on a bulk fermentation time, but rather a percentage.  Your goal percentage will vary by season, house temperature, water temperature, etc.  If it is really cold in your house, you can get a seedling mat relatively inexpensively to put under your dough to keep it warm.</span></div><div class="wprm-recipe-instruction-media wprm-recipe-instruction-image"><img decoding="async" loading="lazy" width="225" height="300" src="https://ourrootedmess.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/img_3637-225x300.webp" class="attachment-medium size-medium" alt="" srcset="https://ourrootedmess.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/img_3637-225x300.webp 225w, https://ourrootedmess.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/img_3637-768x1024.webp 768w, https://ourrootedmess.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/img_3637-450x600.webp 450w, https://ourrootedmess.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/img_3637-1152x1536.webp 1152w, https://ourrootedmess.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/img_3637-720x960.webp 720w, https://ourrootedmess.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/img_3637-360x480.webp 360w, https://ourrootedmess.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/img_3637-180x240.webp 180w, https://ourrootedmess.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/img_3637.webp 1500w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px" /></div> </li><li id="wprm-recipe-558-step-0-11" class="wprm-recipe-instruction" style="list-style-type: decimal;"><div class="wprm-recipe-instruction-text" style="margin-bottom: 5px;"><span style="display: block;">Once the dough reaches your goal bulk fermentation percentage,  it should have bubbles all the way through the dough and you are ready to proceed with shaping your loaves.</span></div><div class="wprm-recipe-instruction-media wprm-recipe-instruction-image"><img decoding="async" loading="lazy" width="227" height="300" src="https://ourrootedmess.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/img_3703-227x300.jpg" class="attachment-medium size-medium" alt="Sourdough bulk fermentation complete" srcset="https://ourrootedmess.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/img_3703-227x300.jpg 227w, https://ourrootedmess.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/img_3703-775x1024.jpg 775w, https://ourrootedmess.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/img_3703-768x1015.jpg 768w, https://ourrootedmess.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/img_3703-1162x1536.jpg 1162w, https://ourrootedmess.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/img_3703-720x952.jpg 720w, https://ourrootedmess.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/img_3703-360x476.jpg 360w, https://ourrootedmess.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/img_3703-180x238.jpg 180w, https://ourrootedmess.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/img_3703.jpg 1284w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 227px) 100vw, 227px" /></div> </li><li id="wprm-recipe-558-step-0-12" class="wprm-recipe-instruction" style="list-style-type: decimal;"><div class="wprm-recipe-instruction-text" style="margin-bottom: 5px;"><span style="display: block;">Dump your dough out onto your counter.

A simple score is to cut down the middle on both sides creating 4 sections on a round loaf.

This allows the bread room to expand in the oven.  </span></div><div class="wprm-recipe-instruction-media wprm-recipe-instruction-image"><img decoding="async" loading="lazy" width="170" height="300" src="https://ourrootedmess.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/img_3710-170x300.webp" class="attachment-medium size-medium" alt="" srcset="https://ourrootedmess.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/img_3710-170x300.webp 170w, https://ourrootedmess.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/img_3710-580x1024.webp 580w, https://ourrootedmess.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/img_3710-768x1357.webp 768w, https://ourrootedmess.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/img_3710-870x1536.webp 870w, https://ourrootedmess.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/img_3710-720x1272.webp 720w, https://ourrootedmess.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/img_3710-360x636.webp 360w, https://ourrootedmess.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/img_3710-180x318.webp 180w, https://ourrootedmess.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/img_3710.webp 912w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 170px) 100vw, 170px" /></div> </li><li id="wprm-recipe-558-step-0-22" class="wprm-recipe-instruction" style="list-style-type: decimal;"><div class="wprm-recipe-instruction-text" style="margin-bottom: 5px;"><span style="display: block;">Spray the top of your loaves with water (I use a hair mister that I bought specifically for that and keep it with my sourdough supplies).

This allows us to pull the bread out of the freezer in smaller portions to thaw and use. We keep a few slices at a time in the refrigerator that way it never goes bad on us. When the big bag in the freezer gets low, it&#8217;s time to make more.</span></span></div></div>

<div class="wprm-recipe-summary wprm-block-text-normal"><span style="display: block;">These english muffins are made with 100% fresh milled flour and naturally fermented with sourdough starter.  They are full of a rich almost nutty flavor you just can&#39;t get from store-bought.  They are perfect for egg sandwiches, slathered in butter or honey, or toasted with your favorite jam or jelly.  These are a staple in our household.</span></div>

Mill a small amount of flour to roll the english muffins in.  Use a scale to make a 109-110g dough ball then rolling it in your bowl of fresh milled flour to coat.  Set the dough ball on a cookie sheet with parchment or a silicone mat.  Continue to ball and roll the english muffins in flour until you have approximately 22 dough balls additional additional avocado oil to the pan as needed.  Cover the dough balls and let them double in size which will take another 2 hours or so depending on your house temperature.</span></div></li><li id="wprm-recipe-141-step-0-6" class="wprm-recipe-instruction" style="list-style-type: decimal;"><div class="wprm-recipe-instruction-text" style="margin-bottom: 5px;"><span style="display: block;">Once the english muffins have doubled in size, heat up a large skillet with a lid on the stovetop on medium low drizzling avocado oil in the pan to prevent them from sticking.  Preheat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.</span></div></li><li id="wprm-recipe-141-step-0-7" class="wprm-recipe-instruction" style="list-style-type: decimal;"><div class="wprm-recipe-instruction-text" style="margin-bottom: 5px;"><span style="display: block;">Place as many english muffins in the pan that will fit, but you can still easily flip them.  Cook 4 minutes covered then flip them over and cook an additional 4 minutes covered.  Transfer the english muffins to a cookie sheet and finish cooking them in the oven at 375 degrees Fahrenheit.  This usually takes me 4-6 minutes until they reach an internal temperature of 208-210 degrees Fahrenheit.  Transfer to a cooling rack and continue the same procedure till all of the english muffins are baked.</span></div></li><li id="wprm-recipe-141-step-0-8" class="wprm-recipe-instruction" style="list-style-type: decimal;"><div class="wprm-recipe-instruction-text" style="margin-bottom: 5px;"><span style="display: block;">Enjoy!</span></div><div class="wprm-recipe-instruction-media wprm-recipe-instruction-image"><img decoding="async" loading="lazy" width="300" height="225" src="https://ourrootedmess.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/img_3052-300x225.webp" class="attachment-medium size-medium" alt="fresh milled sourdough english muffins" srcset="https://ourrootedmess.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/img_3052-300x225.webp 300w, https://ourrootedmess.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/img_3052-768x576.webp 768w, https://ourrootedmess.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/img_3052-1024x768.webp 1024w, https://ourrootedmess.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/img_3052-500x375.webp 500w, https://ourrootedmess.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/img_3052-1536x1152.webp 1536w, https://ourrootedmess.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/img_3052.webp 2000w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px" /></div> </li></ul></div></div>
