Baking Bread.....................
..........is what I enjoying doing on my days off. Although I'll play around with rye and whole wheat occasionally, it is white bread that we prefer. Usually a French or Italian or sourdough based bread with a good crust. So most weeks, I try to bake at least twice and sometimes three times. And I usually share a loaf or two with our neighbours. Everyone loves homemade bread.
Yesterday I took some sourdough that was in the fridge and added it to a new batch of dough. Made three large loaves and had enough dough left to make a pizza for dinner. This dough makes the best pizza crust.

This is such a great blog!!! Really makes me hungry just reading and looking at the pictures : ) I recently baked my first loaf of bread and it was incredible!!! I used a starter my friend told me about. It's from Sourdough's International and now I have to spread the word! I loved it. Definitely going to order more when it comes the time.
ReplyDeleteThanks Rachael. Instead of purchasing a sourdough starter, you might try making your own. You can find the details here:........ http://www.thibeaultstable.com/2009/11/best-reason-for-baking-homemade.html
