I used to make yeasted breads but couldn't get the missing savouriness and chew. I had been thinking about starting sourdough but was frightened by the mystique until I discovered Teresa Greenway who showed me the way. I love my breads, so do my friends who are always eager to receive a loaf. There's no way I would return to the yeasted dark side!
