The proof of the...

pudding is in the eating.  However I feel proud as a new mum crowing over her first born.


Hot off the press this evening, Friday.

Just tasted it and it is delish.
All my own work, harnessing the 
wee beasties and bugs and making a very flavoursome loaf.  Just eaten the crust and it is superb and can only get better as my homegrown sourdough starter improves with age.




Promise this will be the last sourdough post.

      I think the worry now will be the bloated look will be due to podge!

    1. Must confess I was fully expecting a pancake loaf for the very first attempt. Pleasantly surprised, onwards and upwards.

  4. It's a beautiful loaf. Truly wonderful. And just today I read an article about how much better it is for one than any other kind.

    1. Not if you eat too much, which I am afraid I have been guilty of!
