Here’s pretty little Easter egg from a previous frozen mini loaf. The oven spring wasn’t great because of being frozen but it was a fun one to try! I’m going to try it again soon on a full sized loaf! 🥚🥖🥳👏🏻☺️I used my lovely @rbfoodboard #bagrulame for all the intricate cuts. #sourdough #eastersourdough #easterdecor #eastersourdoughbread #eastereggchallenge #eastereggbread #sourdughscoring #breadofinstagram

I love tacos 🌮!! So I’ve been wanting to find

I love tacos 🌮!! So I’ve been wanting to find a good corn /sourdough recipe that stays together better but also healthier and easier to digest. These are a keeper!! The trick to using a cast-iron tortilla press is to always use parchment paper surrounding your tortilla! Here’s the recipe. Sourdough Corn
Tortillas
one cup (130g) of Masa Harina
1/2 cup(130g) sourdough starter or discard
3/4 cup(110g) bread flour
1/2 teaspoon of salt
2 tablespoons of lard, shortening or coconut oil
3/4 cup(185g)warm water not above 85 degrees
Mix all ingredients together
Then separate into 12 balls that are approximately 50 g each Roll out into tortillas or use a tortilla press dusting with extra masa as needed.
Cook in a skillet on high heat for 20 to 30 seconds on each side
The dough can also be frozen and then thawed and rolled out into tortillas later.
If you want to make a double batch they freeze beautifully!!
Here’s the recipe for a double batch(24 tortillas)
The second time I made them I used :
220 g freshly milled organic soft, white wheat berries ( They were delicious, just as good as the bread flour ones!! )
2 tablespoons of coconut oil,
2 tablespoons of lard
11/4 teaspoon of salt
370 g of warm water
260 g organic Masa Harina
260 g Starter or Discard. You can also make this without sourdough starter : Here’s the recipe:
1c masa
1c all-purpose flour
1c warm water
1/2t salt
2 T lard #sourdough #sourdoughtortillas #prometabolicnutrition #organicmasaharina #kingarthurbaking #victoriatortillapress #elyucateco #sourdoughdiscardrecipe #pickledredonions #cilantro #cornandflourtortillas

Here’s what my starter looked like this morning

Here’s what my starter looked like this morning after I fed it the 1:6:6 ratio mentioned in my last post. It rested for 11 hours at 74 degrees
Here’s the ratio I used again 195 g starter :1170 water and 1170 bread flour with 10% rye mixed in. This gives me 2534 g of starter for my class @workthemetal today. 👏🏻🙌🏼🥖Thank you you Addy @breadstalker_ I’ve learned so much from reading your lovely book!! #sourdough#fermenteddough#levainbuilding #baking#wheat#countrydough#countrysour#homemadesourdough #bakingbread#artisanbaker#crumbshot#naturallyleavened#ilovesourdoughbread #scalingup

Are y’all ready for the magic formula?!?🥳🙌

Are y’all ready for the magic formula?!?🥳🙌🏼🥖👏🏻
To scale up your starter for multiple bakes first figure out how much starter you will need?
These ratios are for a 1:6:6 feeding (one part starter, six parts water , and six parts flour.)
You could do this with a 1:5:5 ratio or even high like a 1:8:8.
Divide that by six and then divide that by two then subtract 6% and you will have your number.
For example :
If I need 3000 g of starter
I’ll take 3000 divided x 6 = 500
500 divided x 2 = 250
250 - 6% = 235
235 g starter x 6 = 1410 g flour + 1410 g water = 2820 new starter + your original 235 g starter = 3055 g
3055 g - 3000 g ( end goal) = 55 g to save for your next bake !! Thank you you Addy @breadstalker_ I’ve learned so much from reading your lovely book!! #sourdough#fermenteddough#levainbuilding #baking#wheat#countrydough#countrysour#homemadesourdough #bakingbread#artisanbaker#crumbshot#naturallyleavened#ilovesourdoughbread #scalingup

Cinnamon Raisin Brioche for my 91 year old grandmo

Cinnamon Raisin Brioche for my 91 year old grandmother. Sourdough is such a lovely gift and can be shipped across the country. Just last week I shipped two loaves to Arizona to my husband’s 90+year-old grandmother. I am so happy to be able to give these amazing ladies a little something to look forward to in their day!!🥰🙏🏻🥖Here are some tips for shipping bread. Make sure the bread is completely cooled wrap it in a plastic bread bag, and then into another craft paper bag. Put bubble wrap around the loaf tightly so it doesn’t shift to much during shipping. Try to ship as early in the week as possible so that it gets there before the weekend. Have your recipients refrigerate the bread as soon as it gets there so there is no risk of it molding. It will keeps weeks in the fridge and months in the freezer! 🥖🥳☺️
