Just now realizing the image was reversed 🤦. I have become my own grandpa. Here’s the fix:

Same image as the quote post but flipped so the words actually read “alpha male” instead of “elam ahpla”

Kiddo asked me to make my usual sourdough red. So I did. And it looks like cake. It is not cake. The cake is a lie.

Had to make two sourdough loaves at once so I did them side by side, one on the stone and the other in the pot, with some water below to steam the one on the stone. Stone came out 10 minutes earlier than the pot, and is still waaaay darker and denser. Interesting!

I have not, in fact, stopped baking bread. It’s just become so routine that I don’t bother posting every loaf. But this new one is pretty neat. A seedy sourdough.

Been struggling to get my sourdough starter/dough to rise because “room temp” is too damn cold, so I set up a little heating station with a halogen bulb and now BOOM. The one in the back is from bread flour, been going a month, front is from rye flour, just a week.

Second attempt at Pain de campagne went much better! I now have a banneton and a proper lame, and I didn’t flub the transfer from peel to stone this time. Woo!

I’ve been playing with sourdough baking vessels. A loaf pan works ok but ends up too dense. A 6” cake pan worked pretty well today, though the sides are a little wonky. I think I’ll try an 8” cake pan next.

I was dissatisfied with how the sourdough turned out the other day, larger due to lacking the proper baking vessel. It was too wide and too short. So tonight I experimented with a couple loaf pans, using one as a lid for the other. Looks a beaut!
