Since 2015

I'm a food blogger with big love in doughs! My first doughs for bread were with dry yeast, then with fresh yeast and then came sourdough! Now for my breads I only use sourdough, for other types of dough I mostly use yeast. I have 2 sourdough starters, one usual with regular water and flour and the 2nd with raisin water and flour (fruity and wonderful).

Characteristics

My sourdough is one year old and I love it! I made it out of curiocity and I'm addicted to it since then. It took me many steps to finally get it to a level that I understand what it needs, how to feed it, how long to ferment, to know when its ready for baking etc. It's an alive and fully active sourdough!!
