I think the slight sweetness makes a good companion to the sour and fatty tastes. Schweinswuerste (pork sausages) and sauerkraut or go the whole hog and have a nice Helles with Wammerl (pork belly)/Schweinshaxn (pork knuckle) and Semmelknoedel (bavarian style dumplings) Now I'm hungry 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popo the Reprobate Posted March 23, 2020 Share Posted March 23, 2020 Sourdough is great. I've been getting in to making it regularly for the last 6 months or so. I tried in vain to get my own starter going but failed several times. I got hold of a starter from my brother in law. It sat in the back of the fridge for a while but took off fairly quickly. I really enjoy the process and the end result is always pretty satisfying. https://alexandracooks.com/2017/10/24/artisan-sourdough-made-simple-sourdough-bread-demystified-a-beginners-guide-to-sourdough-baking/ I've found that one to be a good starting point. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mine is now 10 years old and going strong, it survived well in the fridge with no use for 3 months last year. I take it out, use a few tablespoons and replace what I took with water and flour, straight back into the fridge. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Captain!! Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 I think once I get my wood oven I’ll start a sourdough mother. If I think I’ll get time anyway. Think my mum has had one going for a number of years 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Naughty Corner Brewing Posted April 7, 2020 Share Posted April 7, 2020 So this is my first try into the dark art of sour dough. Starter is still a little immature but it got there in the end. Probably could have made either a bigger loaf or used a smaller bread tin (if I had one). Smells awesome and can’t wait to cut it for breakfast today. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worked at a bakery for a while after leaving school, albeit 30 odd years ago. Be nice if I could get some actual bread flour rather that just boring old all purpose plain flour.

I didn't really learn much about making it though. I'd give up a toilet roll for a kg of plain flour at the moment. I did find a bag of SR flour yesterday but plain was the preference. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's fermenting away nicely & hopefully will be nice & creamy/frothy in a few more days time. Starting to get a nice smell to it too. For those that perhaps didn't know, as far as breads go, sourdough bread is about as healthy as a bread can get for you. The naturally occurring wild yeast propagated to help produce the bread is said to be quite good for your internals as part of the bread it produces (TTBOMK). Much like sauerkraut & kimchi that use natural wild yeasts to ferment them & change their structures etc. Might try & hunt down a nice dutch oven tomorrow to use for this. Any tips on kneading/prepping the dough before baking Benny? (Can make or break the end result from what I've viewed) Cheers & given this COVID-19 BS, I hope everyone can find a way to have a nice Easter weekend.

Am I on the right track with what you're planning? I'll make some form of bread, just not sure it'll look as pretty as the other boys that have had a bit of practice at it.

Some mothers have been going for decades in baking circles and villages. Might not be called a mother, I don’t know, that’s what people I know call em.

I was watching a video this morning about sourdough starters & baking them etc. & the guy backed up what Benny has done & said the sourdough culture gets better & better with age the longer you can keep it going. For a guy at home to have a culture he has maintained & developed for 10 years now is very impressive in my book. Despite how good Ben's loaf looks, it must taste incredible! Benny definitely gets a hat tip from me for that. Cheers, Lusty. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is the reason I got into this hobby after all as I too like to make stuff myself. Everything homemade and grown just tastes better. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
