The Highlands

Toast

After my debut into the world of bread making with my first ever sourdough loaves and my bubbly new immature rye starter, I was keen to head back into the kitchen and try my hand at some bread again. I wanted to try something a little more robust, slightly darker and filling. My parents were going on a road trip up north the day after, so the answer was obvious, a hearty sandwich bread was in order.

A Journey Into Bread and BEYOND!

Hi everyone, my name is Andy and I thought I would write myself a regular blog about my baking exploits. I am a novice, a beginner of the highest order. I have never baked, cooked or even made any food for myself for many years. On a personal note I suffer from severe anorexia and despite my illness, find therapy in making and creating things and bread baking seems to be something I enjoy immensely despite the contradictions of my issues with food.    Moving on from that, I have found real interest in developing a sourdough starter.
