Partially Self-Milled Sourdough

Profile picture for user Mr. Waffles

I did Maurizio’s beginner’s sourdough, from The Perfect Loaf, with some freshly-milled hard white wheat and rye in lieu of packaged whole wheat and rye.

Quite happy with how it worked out. The Grainmaker No. 99 never fails.

That’s a gorgeous, gorgeous loaf! Well done! I bet it tastes amazing!

Thanks for the kind words. I mostly do brioche and waffles, but I’ve been dabbling in sourdough — a new-found interest. I like having a pet that I bake with ;)

Beautiful result, great oven spring and ears.  I have not been able to get those ears doing Maurizio's beginner sourdough yet.

Can you post a photo of the crumb?

That's one fine loaf.  Yes, baking with freshly milled grain is such a pleasure.  Please show us the crumb and your waffles and brioche.
