Made 3 loaves of sourdough bread yesterday using KS Cheryl's recipe and my starter. Two of them were round loaves like this :[p]Sourdough1.jpg

[p]The third was made in loaf pan for sandwich bread. Here they are on the cooling racks :[p]Sourdough2.jpg[p]I didn't get the first one (the one on the left) brown enough for my taste so I altered the cooking procedure on the last two, i.e., put on at 500 degrees, then dropped down to 450 as opposed to starting at 375 and dropping down to 350.

    egret,[p]Great looking loaves John.[p]Bread is one of the many things I have yet to master on the egg. That is one of my winter projects to bake more breads and try to get something even close to what you have produced. I've tried plenty but have never been thrilled with the results.

    egret, Nice looking loaves there! I love bread, and baking it is one of life's joys! My favorite is whole wheat, the recipe for which I put together after doing some in-depth reading. Been a while, but I used to bake sourdough rye/onion bread, and that recipe came from a 1981 edition of the Marlboro (Chuckwagon) cookbook. Another all time favorite from that book is "Wild Card Chili". Together with the sourdough bread it's a combo that's hard to beat. Of course you need some of your favorite brew to wash down the trail dust first![p]Rascal
