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.
