Bonus content: The sparring log

About 24 hours in total but only about an hour or so of actively working on it. I feed the starter around 9am on day one, mix the dough at around 6pm, shape the loaves around 10pm, and bake them next morning.

Ha you’re not wrong. I haven’t given fully naturally-leavened bread a go with my new starter just yet but it’s definitely on my to-do list :)

Yeah these ones rose pretty well! I use 1/2 tsp of commercial yeast for some extra lift in addition to the sourdough starter.

I was working my way through the recipes in the book and just kinda got stuck on this one haha. It just was so good and wasn’t too much work. I’ll definitely have to start checking out other recipes and kinds of sourdough.

There ya go

Looks great! I use the pain de campagne recipe from Flower Water Salt Yeast since I can fit in my schedule the easiest

Yeah if I’m being honest the crust has way more flavor this way

Don’t worry! We’ll go through the process of revising safety ratings to include people outside the car just for auto manufacturers to switch their advertisements to say “five star passenger safety rating” instead 😀

Those poor brain worms must be starving

I wonder which side doesn’t want it to pass /s

Now what’s the chance of this actually passing?
