A little roll of sourdough bread, from my Kernel IPA starter, triple proven, and with milk powder and butter in the recipe. Sliced horizontally and toasted, buttered and stuffed with Nutella, and finally sprinkled with sea salt, it makes an awesome variation on a pain au chocolat

Many seeded white and rye sourdough bread, from a Kernel IPA yeast starter.

Every time I make bread, the top gets stuck to whatever I prove in. It’s just a curse I guess. What I do get instead is a lattice of crunchiness, where the chambers filled by carbon dioxide in the rising bread get ripped open and baked. I also get the bits that pushed together forming curvy little ridges, which float free when the bread is baked. It doesn’t look like your pretty sourdough with nice clean slashes, but it makes up for it in the range of crunchy textures

A bread mother which i started a couple of days ago on the Nordic Food Lab boat. I stoneground red wheat, buckwheat and rye grain in this great wooden mill, and when i next checked it, it had formed a bright purple skin, and smelled of tangy and sweet mushrooms

Roast flour sourdough Mark II

Cool bread ‘waffling’ inspires thoughts of other patterns created by the textures of the proving bowl.

Roasted flour sourdough, mark II. This time I let the dough prove for a third time, for about 8 hours, and in a pudding basin lined with a cloth. I am trying to get a rounder loaf and will try various bowl shapes.
