Sourdough discard pizzas!!

One of my fav parts about sourdough is being able to label everything as “gut healthy”

Normal pizza? Bad for you 👎

I did something a little different with the loaf, I made it like I start the bagels (low hydration/high knead) by doing a poulish first: Mixed 1 c. flour, 1 c. water and 1/2 c. starter (in bloom). It took about 14 hours for that to double.

Then I added 1 tsp salt and another cup and a bit of flour and kneaded that in, old school, until it was no longer sticking to my hands (~20 minutes), and popped it in a bowl to let rise. I figured it would take another 14 hours but at 8 hours in, it ballooned!!! Easily tripled in size, so I had to bake it. 🤷‍♀️ (35 minutes 425, uncovered last 10)

It turned out perfect, I'm a little shocked. Soft and a little chewy with that amazing sour flavour. Next time I'm not scoring it, not enough hydration to cause oven spring anyway, it was already risen enough when I put it in.

Charlie knocked this loaf outta the park. 🥰
Making sourdough bagels. Should I do jalapeño cheddar or everything? 2 hours before I have to decide 🤔
And like magic, 5 days later, Charlie has risen from her 3 year icy snooze in the freezer!!!

She's still not fully awake, a couple more days of feedings and I'll whip up a loaf.

Mood: excited and amazed
Also the Rubaud method has been a learning lesson
I am done with the bulk ferment with my sourdough and this wet dough is a very new concept.
lately I was not able to bake as much as I'd like, but here we go. the very first time with sunflower seeds and it was sooooooo delicious. I also changed the feeding ratio from 1:1:1 to 1:4:4 and have to say, my starter is way healthier since then. 🌞

what is your feeding ratio? 🤔
Happy Sunday, y'all! 😊✨✌🏼
@joely.eth my starter rose from its ashes today I think I’ll starve it until morning still. But it is alive!!
Making my first sourdough starter and I think I have removed too much of the mix on Day 3. Am I doomed?
48 hours into my first sourdough starter 🤓
Crackling sound of a cooling loaf
Sourdough from micro bakery SG.
Hint: they are good
I gave out another "son of Wilson" to a new friend in Guatemala this week. Wilson, my 4 year old starter, has spawned a number of healthy offspring around the world...

To help my friend, I also compiled a basic "no fuss getting started with sourdough" guide

My perspective: Since I travel full time, I don't have much equipment and never weigh or measure anything. I adjust the water/flour based on feel, and hardly ever keep Wilson out on the counter.

I assume this goes against popular opinion, so curious if anyone has strong responses...
Does anyone else mill their own grain into flour or am I the only really crazy one here 😂

Started with a cheap attachment for the kitchenaid then upgraded to a wonder mill and it’s unreal how good it is.

Baking with 100% whole wheat is very challenging and takes a lot of practice but so worth it.

This one has a bunch of turmeric in it so it went a little nuclear yellow 😁

Yea yea it’s a breadmachine loaf but it’s just so easy…..

Fresh bake disappearing rapidly
dough always rises nicely at my parents for some reason :)
Does anyone else make sandwich loaves?

I chopped up lots cheese and salami and put it in this loaf so a slice of bread is almost like eating a sammich. 😁
