This Weeks Bread

Sourdough French Bread


 I baked six loaves.  Four Baguettes and two larger loaves.  There are only four in the photos because I gave one away and we cut into one while it was still warm.

 
 
 
I love the crackling sound the bread makes when it comes out of the oven.   The crust "talks".

  3. Ahh another recipe I need! I bought a sourdough crock because my husband loves sourdough bread but I haven't found a recipe yet that suits me.
    Your loaves look fantastic, wish I could tear off a chunk for my husband!

  4. Kathy, if you want to develop a good sourdough starter you can't go wrong with the recipe from AMY'S BREAD" by Amy Scherber. This is a pure starter using only rye flour and water. Nothing else. Within a week you can have a strong starter and it takes very little maintenance to keep it a live for years.
