All Things Sourdough

This year I decided I was going to start making sourdough bread. It's been a journey to say the least since I didn't have an ounce of talent in the baking department. But can I say how much I love making sourdough, its honestly been so fun to try new receipts and test new foods that I never thought I would be able to make. So here it is, a collection of recipes from several talented bakers that I was able to create (zero talent in baking). I hope you enjoy them as much as my family has!

You can check out my videos on my Pinterest - Naturally Hicks to see how I make each kind of bread!

Sourdough Starter

I purchased my sourdough starter from Ballerina Farms and let me tell you, I give her step by step video full credit for being successful at making sourdough bread. Like I said before, zero talent in the baking world but watching her make bread for her family kept me up at night. I so desperately wanted to be able to make bread, I was able to put my fear aside and purchased her sourdough starter and it snowballed from there. I would highly recommend purchasing from her website at ballerina farms.com.

BREAD

Although this bread will take small increments of your time throughout majority of the day it's so worth it! I like to start this bread right away in the morning so its ready around dinner time.
