I have a really unique approach to sourdough bread making that does NOT involve making any autolyse, hydration ratios, or lots of folding and stretching periods. I have a very hands off, no-knead method and the results are still amazing.

I create sourdough recipes for the home cook. The recipes are simple, straight forward, and not at all fussy. Results a tender amazing breads with out all the babysitting.  You are going to love my approach to sourdough! BUT if you are a professionally trained chef or someone who really wants to get into very formal and traditional sourdough methods, I'm probably not your girl.
