Sourdough Success
Thanks to suggestions from this group, I have been on the "proverbial" quest for the perfect loaf of bread. Remembering that beauty is in the "eye of the beholder", I am happy with the look of this loaf, the time strategy, the equipment used, and the taste. I have the Bosch Universal Mixer. It is efficient, powerful, easy to clean and light weight, they have added an "extended dough hook. This is somewhat subject to the type of recipe. I needed a mixer that could easily be moved around. I finally got bannetons from Lucky Clover - reasonable and well made.
