Homemade Sourdough Recipe: How to Bake your own Sourdough

For many of us embracing farmhouse living, cottagecore style and homesteading traditions, sourdough has become more than just bread — it’s a return to tradition and hits something deep; something from our grandmothers perhaps or our mothers? It's so rewarding.  Sourdough is bread made using a natural fermented starter instead of commercial yeast. The starter is simply flour and water combined, allowing wild yeast and beneficial bacteria to grow naturally over time. I chose a ready made kit from the Noosa Sourdough Co Starter Kit because I love the taste of their sourdough and had a base to work from.  You don’t need a lot of  equipment to begin making sourdough, a few simple kitchen essentials are all it takes.

The rise of Cottagecore style

There’s a quiet movement growing — one that celebrates simplicity, beauty, craftsmanship and a return to the comforts of home. It’s called cottagecore, and while the name may be new, the sentiment feels wonderfully familiar. At The Eumundi Trading Co, we see cottagecore not as a trend, but as a rediscovery of values long cherished in farmhouse living.
