I needed to escape the negative mental space of just being a mom and wife. I needed to be good in something that is going to give me a challenge and allow my mind to process something other than activities and dinners. Sourdough has became a new passion for me, and I am very passionate about it so far!

Caratteristiche

She's lazy in the cold and eager with a heater pad under her bottom. She has an amazing balanced flavour, yet can easily be mistreated for a bit of a more sour taste. Her discard gives life to every day dishes such as onion rings, brownies, sandwich loaves and vetkoek (South African dish similar to fry bread). Her bread is amazing so far, my skill is just lacking still.
