        I baked another loaf of sourdough and gifted it to my best friend.

        I made up a batch of the sourdough crackers that you make BakerAunt and added onion powder,smoked paprika,dill weed,garlic and a little cumin.I have them wrapped and in the fridge ,will bake later.The dough came together nicely.

              I baked another loaf of sourdough gifted to my sister in law.

              Talked with our son yesterday they are back to normal in his home electric and water on and no damage but so many people weren't that blessed.He told me he went to Walmart one day and employees were standing outside said not to enter they were closing at 5pm because they were wiped out of food.He said what if I wanted batteries etc. no matter,we're closing. Yesterday he went in another store found everything he needed.May God Bless Texas they will be devastation for many for awhile.

                        Hey ya'll I don't know if the difference is weighing the ingredients but my starter is off the chain,bubbling almost over the top.I use a quart jar and it's almost over it,never had this good bubbling action before.

                        I made another loaf last night and this morning the dough was almost to ooze over the top of bowl.So I went ahead and baked it in a 9x5.It looked really good,soft and tall so I'm happy.This recipe is what I've been looking for,may add some wheat to it next time.I gifted this to my friend.

                        The recipe calls for stretch and fold over several times before final rest and rise and that may help with it also.

                        This is the link to recipe.
                        The only thing I did different is I let the dough set on the counter overnight I didn't refrigerate it.

                          Your crackers sound good BakerAunt.

                          I tried the sourdough bread this morning it was very good,good crumb and toasted well.I had mixed up a second loaf last night and baked it this afternoon and gifted it to my cousin he's more like a brother to me,he came for a visit this afternoon.It looked lighter I think because my starter was more up to par.I really like this recipe and will make again.It was about three and a half inches tall baked in a 9x5 as stated in the recipe I might make it in a 8x4 for a taller loaf next time.

                          When I made the second loaf last night I was scraping the sourdough starter container to get another 8 oz.
                          but when I fed it it had doubled this morning,I was worried I had used all the goody up but that little bit that was left had so many bubbles it was very airy this morning.

                                  Cwcdesign I know it makes you feel good for your son to bake with you from New Zealand,wonderful how you can facetime from so far away.

                                  I got my sourdough starter out a couple days ago it had sat so long in the fridge it took about 4 feedings to get up to par.I made a new recipe from Baking Sense "Sourdough Sandwich Bread with a soft crust"by Eileen Gray.Y'all would be proud of me I actually weighed the ingredients.I made this up this morning and panned it up about 6:30 PM.It went together easy so I'll see how it turns out,I may make another batch tonight and let it rise all night on the counter.
