By day three of feeding my starting at home, (with the help of @Sandra Brenes) my starter looked great! It had nice bubbles, a nice web and more than doubled at the last feed. On Friday, I followed the Sandra’s sourdough made simple bread recipe exactly. I opted out of using the yeast because I wanted to see how much rise I would get from my starter alone. I left that on the counter for 5 hours to rise, and placed in the refrigerator for 48 hours. I did one envelope fold while it was cold and let it rest on the parchment for 50 minutes then baked it for 45 minutes. My next loaf I want more sour, so I’m going to keep the dough in the refrigerator for longer to ferment more and see what happens! ☺️ or is it leave the dough on the counter longer to ferment? Let me know thoughts!

@Sandra Brenes Thank you!!
What if we walked through your first loaf together?
I’m thinking about putting together a live virtual sourdough workshop where I can walk alongside you as you make your first loaf, from checking your starter to pulling your bread out of the oven. Instead of wondering, you’d have a plan to follow and a place to ask questions as you go. I’m working through the logistics of a three-session workshop that could look like this: 1. Session 1: Starter check and getting prepared : We’d look at how your starter is doing, figure out whether it’s ready for baking, and go over what you’ll need. If yours needs a little more time, we’d identify your next step. 2. Session 2: Dough day: We’d mix our dough together, walk through the next steps, and talk about what to watch for as the dough rises & when your dough is ready for the next step. 3. Session 3: Shaping and baking: We’d work through shaping and getting your loaf baked, with time for questions along the way. The idea is to help you follow the process in your own kitchen with support along the way. Would you be interested in something like this? - Yes, I’d love to bake along with you! - Maybe, depending on the dates and times. - I’d prefer a workshop focused just on getting my starter ready. Or A live walk through (1 session) of the entire process starter to loaf, where you can observe, asks questions & get support. Tell me your thoughts on which format would be most helpful to you and whether weekdays, evenings, or weekends would generally work best for you. I’m still figuring out the schedule, and your answers will help me shape it!
