Baking, Books, Slicing and Baker Friends
There won’t be a recipe on this post. Instead I want to talk not only about Salt Fermented Sourdough ( I will link once again to my salt fermented dough formula here), but about my book, “Discovering Sourdough” and about some of my baking friends.
Flaxseed Raisin Bread and the Super Bowl
I have never seen a football game, that is, not until yesterday. I watched Super Bowl 45 with the Steelers and the Packers.
Blistery, Billowy, Salt Fermented Sourdough
I told you I was happy to be back home! I did not have such success with my loaves at the “other” houses. I believe in large part it may be because: I have an old used oven that works great for baking, I have a dedicated refrigerator set at 46F degrees for fermentation, I have my Fibrament baking stone, I finally got some Morebread flour, and well…. it’s my domain!
Sourdough Biscuits w/Sour Cream
Sourdough Biscuits are so good! As many of you know, I have been primarily working on new forumulas (recipes) using my sourdough starter at 100% hydration. 100% hydration means that when you feed your starter, you always use equal weight of water and flour.

A Visit to the Splash Cafe (Artisan Bread and Bakery goods)
I made a visit to the Splash Cafe in San Luis Obispo, CA today. Wow, was I in for a surprise! Outside the cafe it said it was also an Artisan Bakery. So of course I went inside.Continue reading
Overnight Sourdough
This sourdough is started in the evening, fermented overnight at room temperature and baked the next day.
Sourdough Soft Pretzels
My dear friend, Ann Davidson, hinted that she really would like some of those sourdough pretzels that I had mentioned before. So, with that thought germinating in my mind for about a month, I finally decided to make some.
