My recipe for making sourdough bread is here

I have been a fan of making sourdough for about 40 years and whether plain or with added goodies, a sourdough loaf never fails to excite me.

My sourdough recipe is based on what works well for me. I use it when I give sourdough classes where many people have made terrific sourdough.

The recipe includes key tips for making excellent sourdough loaves, including:

    • making and maintaining a starter
    • a standard recipe for sourdough loaves
    • handling and understanding the dough
    • knowing what to look for at each of the key stages
    • shaping
    • scoring
    • baking

Links to some of my recipes for flavouring sourdoughs are below:

However, if you’re looking for non-sourdough bread, my recipes and guidelines for perfecting bread using commerical yeast can be found at my post here.
