re: Sourdough Bread Eaters

I’m working on the apple sourdough so I’ll have it ready for fall. I think it needs more well…apple.

When adding inclusions the rule of thumb is do not add more than 20% total flour weight in order to still get a good oven spring and texture but that’s just not enough with the apple since it just tends to wash out so I’ll bump that up.

The miso, seeded came out nice tonight and I’ll have a dozen them tomorrow. Has just a touch of molasses with red fife and it’s got some really deep flavor.

Well send your friend. He has the buy one get one free card so he’ll get a free one.

Hope to see you again soon and thanks again. Pass the word.

I made my own applesauce and am testing a couple today for that bread. If it works out I’ll make a few for this weekend.

I used Cosmic Crisp and some Granny Smith and I’m just not a fan of the tartness of the Granny Smith so it’s a work in progress.

I remember your secretary. She bought some for herself. Tell her to come get more.

I’ll have a good miso seeded red fife this weekend along with a lot others. Been getting busy and I appreciate the Food Board support. I count 7 so far but I’d imagine one of two lurkers slipped in.

I’ll have a nice Khorasan ancient grain sandwich bread Saturday too. Man it has some flavor.

And some of the women have brow beat me into making the M&M bread for them this weekend. It’s a pretty great little enriched bread laced with M&M’s.



And the stone milled Bloody Butcher Corn English Muffins with white cheddar are really good. I’ll have those too. Come see me.

I am there Saturday from 9:00-5:00.

Have some good Khorasan ancient grain tin pan loaves just put into refrigeration for 36 hour cold proof.

I’ll have a big plain whole wheat bread, and a good miso, seeded red fife heritage grain bread.

And probably a cranberry oatmeal if I can get to it.

Hummus will be made tomorrow along with the smoked Gouda pimento cheese. Those sell fast.

Come introduce yourself. Thanks.

Yes.

Have a great small coffee company next to me-NextChapter Coffee Company and she roasts some really good stuff.

She sells pourovers, cold brews etc… and has plenty of samples. She is a small roaster and will sell whole beans or grind for you.

Goes great with the sourdough.

About to put the cranberry oatmeal in the refrigerator for cold proof. Looks good.

Come introduce yourself. Support the team.

Nice to meet you today, Matthew.

The sun dried tomato, pesto and Parmesan is fantastic as well as the smoked Gouda pimento. I haven’t gotten to the other stuff yet, but I’ll break it out for apps before game later.

I also got some egg rolls and pizza based on your recommendations. Those egg rolls are as good as it gets and can’t beat it for $2 per.

My son is hoarding the pizza so can’t report back on that.

We will be back. Thanks again.

It was great to meet you and I thank you for the support.

I brought a couple of his pizzas to the game party last night and they disappeared quick. The smoked Gouda queso went fast too.

I have the pimento cheeses every week along with the hummus and will have the smoked Gouda queso both a spicy and a mild too. May make one with some chorizo. See how that works.

The Gladys Kravitz light rye bread is really nice so I’ll keep it on the menu for a few more weeks. Pastrami on Gladys for lunch.

Had I think 5 food board (allegedly) regulars yesterday and I hope all had great bread.

My 100lbs of almonds hit the door yesterday so I’ll start on fresh almond butters today while I’m milling this weeks flour.

I sold 130 loaves yesterday and I think the bread speaks for itself and hearing your response kind of validates my hopes of what I set out to do. Create nutritious, handmade sourdough breads and let the public enjoy and decide if the bread is worthy.

I’m from Baton Rouge and I knew the product had to be good to sell because this town has some deep appreciation for quality food but won’t hand out loyalty blindly. If the bread doesn’t live up I’m not going to convince anyone. Taste earns its worth and anything less just won’t last.

So thanks again. Hope to see you next Saturday.

And eat up. I’ll bake more.

Thanks to the Food Board members who showed up today and bought bread and spread.

Lurker (who has been banned many times-allegedly) who was with his wife and grandson I owe you a free loaf of bread so please come back anytime.

Tewino thanks again. Loaded up so eat up and I’ll bake more. Let me know how you like the Khorasan bread and the one with the Bloody Butcher corn. I’ll have the Khorasan on the regular rotation for a while. It’s my favorite at the moment.

And the other 2 lurkers thank you as well. Cleaned out my spicy queso so enjoy. It’s a good one.

Anyone else wants to try my bread come see me next Saturday and load up with the breads, queso and pimento cheeses for the late game. Quite a few tailgate parties had my bread making sandwiches on campus today. If you had a smoked Gouda pimento cheese on big arse sourdough, very good chance it’s mine.

Here is my light sandwich rye which made an amazing Pastrami and Rye sandwich that Dagwood would be proud of.






And I’ll have chorizo queso next week along with the spice and mild.

Thanks for all the support.

Have some great breads tomorrow ready for your tailgate party. Come grab some ancient Khorasan grain or a nice rye for your sandwiches or a big rustic country loaf for your gumbo.

Some good queso’s too. A chorizo and a jalapeno smoked Gouda. Plenty of time before the game. Thanks to all the Food Board members who have been supporting the BlueRabbit. Hope to see you tomorrow. Go Tigers.

Where are you today?

Where can i get a sourdough starter? I had dry yeast and misplaced it. I let my starter die. I wasn't to get back into bread. I started some wrapped flour outside to get natural yeast. But just in case that doesnt work...
