sourdough bread

         


The love of sourdough permeates throughout our house.  In order to satiate my husband's never ending craving of this particular bread I decided to try making my own.  Although the process takes quite a bit of time (as in days, yes days) it has been totally worth it to enjoy hot sourdough smothered in butter or dipped in olive oil.  You must begin by making what is called a starter - this takes the longest but you can keep it "alive" in your fridge by using it and then feeding it (I know this sounds crazy but I promise it works and is totally worth it).  I used this recipe for the starter as well as for the actual sourdough bread.
