My sourdough loaf failed so I made croutons 🥰

2025/3/2 Edited to

When baking sourdough, it's not uncommon to encounter a loaf that doesn't turn out as expected. Whether the dough didn't rise or the texture isn't quite right, there’s no need to let your hard work go to waste. Instead of discarding the failed loaf, consider transforming it into delightful croutons. Croutons can add a crunchy texture to soups and salads, making them a versatile ingredient in many dishes. To create croutons, start by cutting your sourdough into cubes. Toss these cubes with olive oil, salt, and your favorite seasonings such as garlic powder, dried herbs, or even Parmesan cheese. Spread them on a baking sheet and toast in the oven until golden and crispy. This not only saves your sourdough but enhances your meals with a burst of flavor. Additionally, experimenting with different flavor profiles can lead to unique crouton variations that complement various salads or soups. For instance, a sprinkle of Italian herbs can make for fantastic croutons for tomato soup, while a touch of spice could give a kick to a creamy salad. Enjoy the satisfaction of repurposing a kitchen mistake into a delightful culinary treat!

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.

Spiritual lessons from my first sourdough loaf 🥖✨

1. Growth is invisible before it becomes visible. The dough was changing long before I could see it rising. God works the same way in us. 2. Timing matters. If you rush fermentation, the bread suffers. Some seasons require waiting, resting, and trusting God’s timing. 3. Stretching pro
