I've got a loaf that's easy...just throw it together...and it's the time of year (really, when isn't it the time of year) for making, baking and EATING bread!

I did use commercial yeast to increase the likelihood of success this first time. I may make it "from the air" at some future time if this experiment goes well. Thank you for your kind encouragement!

It's a little fiddly to always be stirring and adding to the starter, but if you use it regularly, it's not too bad. You should try it!Gumbo Lilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02747138637571716591noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6095103946834851624.post-35987553299768343472015-10-30T09:19:38.595-06:002015-10-30T09:19:38.595-06:00Oh, yum!

Do you use a starter to make your sourdough? I have wanted to try as I make all other kinds of bread but I am "skerd."

I love making ...I love that comment by Julia Child. I love making bread! I don't make it like I did when the kids were all at home either. I even made bread last week for soup, one loaf. I felt like such a slacker. :) Your bread looks lovely. I have wanted to make sour dough starter too. I think pancakes sound great. The more nuts and goodies in the bread the better I like it. I have never heard of weaning calves like that. I would love to know how it works out. I always thought weaning of calves was the worst time of year.<br />Stay warm. I think 20 eggs a day would be wonderful. My chickens are molting so I think I am getting 3 eggs a day right now. Have a wonderful Friday.Farm Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00998621464797636686noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6095103946834851624.post-74679095210737078802015-10-29T22:13:22.188-06:002015-10-29T22:13:22.188-06:00I would love to bake and eat more bread!

Just looking at your loaf and hearing the ingredients makes me hungry for homemade bread. I have a poem about butter that I am going to share soon, too :-)GretchenJoannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13641677400029070452noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6095103946834851624.post-90538103796102099862015-10-29T21:07:59.291-06:002015-10-29T21:07:59.291-06:00The calendula is so pretty.

Maybe a recipe for a single loaf so I don't have to throw it out if I can't eat it fast enough! I hope the new weaning method works out well for you. :)Lisa Richardshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00567160304529796810noreply@blogger.com
