I just love homemade sourdough bread
So over the holidays, my whole family was down with COVID!!! It was more like a head cold than the deadly virus it was portrayed to be. I'm ot saying people haven't died from it, just that it was very mild for my whole family.
Due to being sick, I didn't get to do a lot of things I wanted to do in our new house. We managed to finish painting our living room and dress it with the furniture we had for it, just in time for our symptoms to arrive!!! We had a large comfortable couch to lay around in, veggitate and wait out the internal battle that was about to happen within our bodies!!! Of course we helped in it with herbal teas, vitamines, and supplements.
Once I get better I got my old sourdough starter out of the fridge and got the process of bread making going again. It took a couple of days for the starter to rise, but once it got going I made bread almost every day of break I had left.
My first one looked like this:
It s really good, bit t was a bit dense. I need to change something in the recipe for the bread to have more fluff.
The next couple ones were much better:
These were fluffier for sure, it had something to do with the way I stretched and folded the dough along with how hungry my sourdough starter had been at the time of mixing.
Then, when I thought I had the hang of it, and was no longer following the recipe online, I messed it up!!!!
I had done everything right, let the starter rise to the optimal time, mixed it in with all the same ingredients, and let it proof perfectly too. The next morning, I preheated my oven with the dutch-oven inside of it but it had lost its oils. On top of that, when I put my sourdough in the pot, I forgot to sprinkle a little flour on the bottom so it wouldn't stick while cooking!!!!
What I got was a deliciously fluffy bread with good weight to it, but no bottom. It had stayed attached to the bottom of the pot:
The next step is making herbal bread!
