Taking care of Bread Astaire.

& Happy New Decade, dear Readers!

I hope you have all had a great start to the new year, and that you are keeping the bugs at bay. Dragan’s sourdough culture, Bread Astaire, whom some of you have already met, needed a bit of ‘intensive care’ this week, so I knitted him a little hat and scarf. I don’t know about him, but it was certainly very therapeutic for me!

We are busy putting the finishing touches to a brand new course on Udemy, ‘Sourdough Starters & Leavens‘, so look out for our announcement on this very soon. (Bread Astaire makes a compelling cameo appearance in the movie, well worth the watch!) The course is 100% focused on making, managing and really understanding the different kinds of sourdough cultures, and how using young, mature or old starters / leavens makes a significant difference to your breads. Watch this space!
