I have a favor to ask. If you have had a chance to see @JoAnn Amato Chicago cookbook, I would like to try to do a Sourdough Improvement cookbook. It may takes 6 months to do but I have time. So how can you help me you ask? If you could give me your favorite sourdough bread recipe to put in my cookbook. I would either need the recipe written out or the link to it. If you do not want to that is okay too. To be honest I am trying to learn something new to keep my mind sharp, and I think it would be fun.

This is from Maurizio Leo at the Perfect Loaf. It’s my all time favorite sandwich bread. It comes out so beautiful and soft every time I make it. I did replace 44% of the bread flour with hard red wheat BF from Azure. I had to add more water but forgot to measure, just went with what felt right…. Could You please give this a breadscore @David Bachman? Thanks! https://www.theperfectloaf.com/pain-de-mie/

The recipe drop scheduled for today is going to be delayed until tomorrow or Wednesday morning. My apologies. The (maybe) good news is that there will be 2 new sourdough recipes. I'll drop formulas for Cacio e Pepe (Aged Asiago and cracked black pepper) and Cheddar Jalapeño. That means it is Cheese Week in the big tent 😂. 🧀 🧀

Every Monday, I'll drop a new formula for everyone to try. I'll be documenting my own baking and sharing that as well throughout the week. Here's what you have to look forward to through the end of July ➡️ Monday, June 22 - Sourdough Hot Dog Buns Monday, June 29 - Sourdough Baguettes Monday, July 6 - Seeded Sourdough Sandwich Bread Monday, July 13 - Cacio e Pepe Sourdough Monday, July 20 - Sourdough Pain de Méteil Monday, July 27 - Sourdough English Muffins There may be a few additional surprises sprinkled in as well, so stay tuned!

Have you been taking advantage of the free BreadScore™ visual analysis reports to help you improve your sourdough baking? Are you curious about seeing the big picture of your sourdough baking since you've joined this community? You can now request a BreadScore™ video overview! This works best if you have requested four or more analyses and provides highlights of your successes, opportunities for improvement, and a suggested next steps on your sourdough baking journey. @Patt Stanaway and @Ehsan Omara have graciously given permission to share their overviews with everyone. My hope is that others will also be willing to do the same as I think we all have so much to learn from each other when we are open and generous in sharing both are successes and struggles. If you are interested in your own personalized overview, let me know below. I also plan on providing you updated overviews monthly if you're interested. Thanks again to Patt and Ehsan for sharing!
