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

      Yep, I'm feeling smug….

                Mrs Sarina's job this week end is to help me refine the recipe......

                      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…

Almond butter/tahini for topping.

                                    Tried parsnips for the first time! Mmmm………..

                                        Tacos last night become juevos this morning. All I have is a pan and some camping equipment, so simple is all I can do. Turns out it all one needs anyway. And of course a burr grinder, digital  kettle, Aeropress, and pour over.

                                        Think it, be it.

                                          @4c  your pasta dish looks so damn yummy, especially with seriously hot peppers in them. Makes my mouth water even though I've just eaten…
