My very first loaf

2025/1/11 Edited to

... Read moreBaking bread at home has become increasingly popular, especially with the rise of sourdough enthusiasts. Sourdough bread is not only delicious but also has health benefits due to its natural fermentation process. Many beginners love to embark on the journey of making sourdough at home, finding joy in the tactile experience of kneading dough and shaping their loaves. The basic ingredients for sourdough bread include flour, water, and salt, alongside a sourdough starter, which is a mixture of flour and water that has fermented and developed wild yeast and beneficial bacteria. Beginners often start with simple recipes, gradually building their skills and understanding of fermentation over time. Additionally, joining online communities and forums can provide support and knowledge-sharing among fellow bakers. Engaging with hashtags like #sourdough on platforms like Lemon8 can lead to discovering tips, tricks, and recipes from experienced bakers. Embrace the art of sourdough baking, and soon you'll enjoy the delightful aroma of freshly baked bread right from your kitchen!

my first successful sourdough loaf!
I tried several times to make sourdough and the crust was always too hard and the inside was always too dense. Finally, I told myself I was overthinking it. So I put away the food scale and stopped using an online recipe. I wanted to have fun learning how to make bread, so I threw out all rules

Overproofed Sourdough loaf or Perfection?
Everyone has their own goal when baking sourdough bread. Some like their crumb to be very hole-y and open, others prefer a slightly denser loaf, but I find that more and more people like a fluffy, closed crumb. One where the butter and jam won’t seep through the holes yet it’s very soft and fluffy.
