Intro to Sourdough Baking
Bake Your First Sourdough Loaf
Simple, slow, and deeply satisfying. Let's bake.
Just Three Ingredients
The foundation
Flour — bread flour works best
Water — room temperature
Salt — fine sea salt
No yeast packets. Your starter is the magic.
Feed It Like a Pet
The starter
Mix flour and water daily. In 5 to 7 days, wild yeast wakes up and your starter is alive.
Mix, Rest, Shape, Bake
The process
Your First Loaf Won't Be Perfect
Beginner tip
Every loaf teaches you something the recipe can't.
Flat, dense, or pale — it will still taste amazing. Keep baking.
Start With One Jar of Flour
That's all it takes to begin.
