Baking with sourdough...Clouds/sunbreaks, 33º

 Covered the garden again last night and will leave covers on for the next couple of nights, hoping for warmer weather soon!

Rusty brought a sourdough start home from Bend (thanks Bee and Brian)...My start has been in the fridge for sometime so decided to use the new one. I followed a rustic sourdough bread recipe off of King Arthur baking...Instead of doing two loaves on a cookie sheet, I dumped the whole batch in the cold dutch oven and into a 425º oven...It rose nicely but is more dense than I wanted, tasted very good with our steak and salad dinner...Will be fun to try more methods of baking and make two loaves instead of the 2 1/2 pounder we will be eating on all week!

Have a friend coming for lunch today, making a quiche, will let you know how it turns out...Hugs To All...OWAV:)

Cooling on the rack.

Just out of the oven.
