defining sourdough

Dear bread friends,

No baking this weekend I'm afraid as I am away. I'll be back at it the weekend of 18 April and will let you know when orders are open again.

In the meantime there are three new posts over on the blog if you fancy a read. How best to simply describe what sourdough actually is? I also wanted to a share a great image on The Dusty Knuckle's Instagram, about what it actually costs to make a loaf. And finally, a post that's just a quote I keep coming back to from Jim Franks about love and bread.

Thanks as always for being here.
