Making Sourdough Easy for Everyone
If you’re anything like me, sourdough was really intimidating at first – the bubbling starters, the timing, and the endless folding. It felt like a world only expert bakers could navigate. But I soon discovered that sourdough is truly for everyone, and you don’t need years of experience, tons of time, or special skills to enjoy the process. My goal is to make your sourdough journey as simple as possible, and help you realize that sourdough baking is something you can do. With a little guidance and encouragement, you’ll see that creating your own delicious, homemade bread is not only achievable but genuinely enjoyable. Let’s make sourdough easy and fun, together!
