Because it’s humid here, I keep my flour in airtight containers along with food grade Rechargeable Silica Gel Desiccant Packets that I got from Amazon (where else?)
Containers keep the bugs out and desiccant keeps the flour dry and fresh.

I think my starter went nuts. Overnight rise is supposed to double. This 1 liter batch went TRIPLE.
Over-proofed much?
Baked in a double Dutch cast iron loaf pan.
Very tasty 😋

J. R. R. Tolkien had written other novels before Lord of the Rings.
The trilogy was a huge undertaking.
When asked why he was so obsessed with the work he responded that it was not an obsession, but rather a force of Hobbit.

Today’s bake.
Cast Iron Double Dutch loaf pan.
20% rye dough.
Artisan style round loaves may look amazing, but standard loaf pan slices make for awesomely more easier sandwich slices.
YAY 😀

IT'S FREEEEEEZING outside. We moved to Florida so this wouldn’t be an issue. I’m staying in my toasty bed until you FIX IT 🥶

Just in time for the Florida freeze I got my puppy a nice warm snuggle bed. His nose is burrowed under the left side. I wasn’t sure he’d like it, but happily I was wrong 😑

Dressed a whole wheat sourdough slice with Marmite.
Didn’t know what to expect.
Never had Marmite before.
My tastebuds were TOTALLY blown away.
The flavor was AMAZING 🤩
( don’t research the product, just buy a jar, take the leap and let your mouth decide )

A freshly baked sourdough wheat loaf. After baking I waited the mandatory three hours before slicing. Even with an awesome sharp bread knife I met resistance. After 24 hours, same knife, sliced like butter. I’m SOOOOOO confused 😵
Sourdough obviously violates the laws of physics 🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪

Wheat loaf. Cast iron double dutch oven. Two standard size loaf pans that join together to form a "perfect" totally closed baking environment. Moisture from dough contained. Silicone baking sling means I don’t need to grease the pan (changing the flavor)

Instant Pot stacked proofing. Soaker on bottom, starter on top. Yogurt setting low. 4 hours @ 80F. Before and after. House is cold. Sourdough needs toasty. Awesome 👏
Now I can make a sourdough wheat loaf 👍

Sourdough loaf baked in a covered Cast Iron Dutch Oven.
Two days of prep tests my lack of patience, but in the end …
It doesn’t need to be scorched to death to be totally yummy ✅

Following the brutal assassination of a military veteran ICU nurse in Minneapolis, I would not be surprised if a TRUE PATRIOT with the skills to do so took a sniper perch and randomly "neutralized" the federal agent bastards. They'd never hear it coming🖕

Two fresh Pullman style sourdough half loaves side by side in the bread bucket. Plastic lid keeps the moisture in and the critters out 😁 Milk and honey sandwich bread. Super fluffy.
The hard part was letting them age after baking while trying to convince myself that they weren’t there 🚫

The Emperor was planning on refurbishing his Palace at Mar-A-Lago.
When his Court Jester returned from a price check at the local Home Depot, he immediately issued a Royal Proclamation so the work can be completed before the tariff kicks in.
