Happy Valentine's Day to you and yours! Keep up the inspiring bakes. 🍞
Thanks Patrick. Happy Valentine's Day to you as well.
I've only ever used Amy Scherber's (Amy's Bread) instructions for making my sourdough starter but I have never actually used any of
her recipes. So today I decided that I would make her Country Sourdough.
It starts with a Levain so I fed my White Starter again and used 2 oz of the discard to make the Levain.
The Levain is suppose to double in size in 8 hours. So I figured I wouldn't get around to making the dough until tomorrow morning.
But both the starter and the Levain had doubled in 5 hours so I am making the dough tonight and will leave it out
on the counter for an early morning bake.
