My Philosophy: A Little Baking Science, A Dash of Intuition
Sourdough can get really complicated, with lots of terms, techniques, and expensive equipment. Check out the comments in most Facebook sourdough groups, and you’ll see people swear by a laundry list of rules that conflict wildly and stop so many beginners from even trying.
Other blogs and influencers would have you throw out every rule and just follow your heart. But that’s hard to do when your heart doesn’t know where it’s headed. This method just gave me a lot of anxiety and no sure footing to improve my next batch.
My baking philosophy sits between these two schools of thought. I’ve studied and practiced with the goal to learn which rules to follow and which ones I can break. I use tools and practices that may seem rigid but really just take out some of the guesswork, so I can spend my energy (and money) in the places that need my attention. For me, this yields consistently good bread amidst the bustle of normal life.
Let’s break make bread together.
Nothing has brought more joy to my kitchen journey than cutting into a fresh loaf of bread that I’ve made with my own hands. I’ve been baking with yeast at high elevation for 5 years and have stopped buying bread from the grocery store.
Through bread baking, I’ve learned to be more intentional and aware in the kitchen, to slow down and adapt, to savor and appreciate simplicity. And I want to share all of that with you!
