Profile picture for user BumbleBee84

After my numerous trial and errors journey of trying to grow my very first sourdough starter I am pleased to announce that this morning a miracle happened!!!she finally ripened (she passed the float test with awesome bubbles and a mildly sweet + acidic/sour aroma) and me being an eager beaver I decided to have a go at making a sourdough bread using the Tartine 80% hydration whole wheat recipe and it worked,I have made my very first sour dough bread,elated best describes my feeling right now!!! Look at the crumb on that baby... :-)  

Congrats! I remember how amazing it felt to get true ovenspring from my own starter. Lovely honeycomb crumb.

and there is no hope for you from now on:-)  Well done and

Happy SD baking in 2015
