As some will know who read this blog - I make bread every week. I do that because I like the taste, texture and economy of homemade bread. When you have to pay $3- $5 for a decent loaf in the store it is time to make bread! I have been working for months on different Sourdough recipes. Here is today's tip.
Sourdough can get dry quickly. Especially in the desert. In order to make it last longer I have tried several different methods.
1. Mashed potatoes - basically i adapted my Potato Bread Recipe. works OK and the texture is fine.
2. Milk - must be scalded and then cooled. It was alright but not my favorite
3. Dry Milk -- better - but but it does slow the rise. Allow LOTS of time for proofing
so far no clear winner. I will keep trying and let you know. If you have a suggestion please let me know.
Starters I use one from King Arthur flour. Works great! I also use their instant yeast which is amazing. And yes I do yeast to my sourdough.
So what is your favorite bread recipe??
