My first attempt at baking sourdough bread, the first steps in what I expect will be a long journey of learning.
I followed The Perfect Loaf sourdough recipe. My starter (Bella) was created on New Years Day and I worked on it for two weeks before baking. I ground rye and red winter wheat berries for a portion of my flour and also used KA bread flour. There is a nice hint of sourness without being overpowering. Now debating what sandwich to make for lunch.
can make their first loaf of SD about 1,000% better than my first 10. Well done and enjoy the great bread!
That is great oven spring! Well done!!
It can only be beautiful! Well done!
Well done indeed.
I sincerely appreciate all of the kind comments. This forum has been a wonderful inspiration and resource as I've been traveling along my baking journey.
This is miles away better than the first one I baked. Nice job and your patience to wait for 2 weeks to get the start going was something!
I sincerely appreciate the kind words.
Delicious loaf that I wish I was having for lunch today. It looks remarkably like my first SD loaf. Well done!

It looks like you did a wonderful sourdough bake on your first attempt, congratulations!
This bread is perfect for making sandwiches, for lunch today I whipped up some chicken salad.
Thanks, but it was nearly two years ago, lol. Keep showing us your breads.
I didn't notice the date! LOL
As someone new to this, I fully appreciate how wonderful that successful first bake is. Congrats!
Thank you so much for the kind words. I’ve been cooking my whole life professionally and personally, baking is a whole exciting new world.
