As mentioned in our latest episode, here is the sourdough loaf I just baked! Looks good but it was hard as a rock after an hour. Probably something to do with proofing at altitude. Let me know if you have any tips or tricks.

thebacklistbook Increase the sugar used to proof. Or adjust your baking time and temperature. The lower the temp typically keeps a loaf softer. Failing that switch to using bread machine yeast and a mixer revolving with dough hook on lowest speed for 20 minutes instead of kneading. And doing the rise in a warmed environment can help too. 3w
Therewillbebooks @thebacklistbook Thank you so much! I'll try adjusting the temp. on my next loaf and go from there. 3w

A tiny little #ebook available on #hoopla. My cousin gifted me some sourdough starter and I'm trying to educate myself in the ways of the mother dough. 😍
So far I'm still baby-ing the starter and haven't baked bread yet. However, I've made crumpets from my discard and will be attempting crackers tonight from it. Fellow sourdough enthusiasts here? 🍞 #nonfiction

Clare-Dragonfly I am a huge sourdough enthusiast! 😋 I highly recommend checking out Foodgeek‘s channel on YouTube if you are helped by cooking videos. He does a lot of interesting experiments and clear, easy-to-follow recipes. 5y
