#Fiberurary Day 2 catchup! When I'm not knitting I'm... Well, sometimes... baking! As part of my modus operandi to "take photos and make things", of course I take photos of all the things I make. One of those things I make is rustic sourdough bread, from my home culture. Taking a bite of warm, fluffy sourdough bread is like a tasty hug that grocery storebought bread just can't compare to, in my opinion. There's something nourishing and gentle about slow fermented bread, and each loaf that comes out of the oven is like Christmas Morning to me. During the holiday season I make about 5 loaves on average per week, both to give away and to enjoy with our festive meals. My bread baking tapers off during other seasons, both due to the incredible heat that it creates, and also because I am more careful about my carbs during the rest of the year. Rustic loaves like these are not only beautiful, but they are very worthy of trying, if you have never made sourdough. The ingredients are so simple, and once one great loaf is achieved, baking these is addictive! On an upcoming vlog I will be showing my process and hopefully a fresh loaf... I can't wait! #ovenspring #iowacitymake #sourdough #sourdoughbread #fromscratch #adventuresinsourdough #baking #artisanbread #slowfermentation #bakegoods #wildyeast #rusticloaf #rusticsourdough #breadporn (at Iowa City, Iowa) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bt5FkBaFPQu/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=6n5xy9gn3vm8
