    Here's my weekend of sourdough exploring...
    (using a 100% wild starter)






    I've enjoyed the starter and watching it in response to the "feedings" definitely more than my struggles with getting the bread I want out of it..

    Made some sourdough on saturday.  Looks like too much bread in pics, but perfect match with some super smash griddle burgers.  Kept it simple with (2) Patty and (2) Cheese on each . . so so good.





    That's a perfect smash burger right there.   Love the ragged edges where you can get pure crunch.   Perfect.

    Duuuuuude!  You guys are really getting me ramped up here.

    Two questions for those of you that have been taunting me:
    1. On the Egg or in the oven?
    2. Dutch oven method or pizza stone?

    All the above.  You will need to experiment and see what works best in your kitchen/enviroment. I've had success with all the above. Lately I've been doing a lot of DO in the Oven.

    Very Nice @sweet100's The first GREAT crumb I got was using this recipe & video here . . . very very hard to mess up!  Al the stretch & folds take time, but pumps so much air into the bread, lighter result. http://breadtopia.com/sourdough-no-knead-bread/

    Here is some more of my bread . . crumb for whole wheat stuff not as much air . . but could be our fav.
