bread


Okay I get that I'm totally showing off here but oh my goodness the bread has gone from good to amazing!


I've been making the sourdough for a year now and only just recently am I feeling like I understand it.  Well I'm not sure I understand it exactly, but I've made a few changes which are working really well.

   It's all thanks to this fantastic book (which I may just have to buy).


The bread has lovely (bubbly) crusts on it now which I think may be from the water sprayed on before baking, to be honest though it could be something else.

That bread looks amazing! I just had a little look at the book on Book Depository :) It's one thing I'll miss about Switzerland...all the amazing bread. I've heard a lot about making sourdough...I'd like to give that a try.

Ooh, I've been making my sourdough from that book too... although lately I've been lazy and haven't done all the steaming/spraying stuff. It still tastes good! But yours looks super-good.

Amazing, amazing!
We are using and addoring that book too.
The results speak (and smell and taste) for themselves.
