      20 litres of Chilli - that should keep us going.  May even be some left for Haraki and Sarina when they get here on Friday…....

                My first Sour Dough loaves.  Made with the starter I started about 10 days ago.

                Yep, I'm feeling smug….

                                Good effort G, sourdough can be temperamental! Remember to feed your starter regularly, and keep it in the fridge if you want to slow down the fermentation - I feed my white every 4 days, but rye-based ones need more frequent attention

                                  Wrong. That would make it sweeter.

                                    Awesome G.  Gotta love having your own culture going for sourdough, it really is the gift that keeps on giving…

                                      Yep, got the wholemeal in the fridge at the moment.  Will come out tonight so that it is really active when Sarina and I make the sponge on Friday night.

                                      Going to start a Rye starter tonight…
