My Deep Respect for you 🙂

Natasha, as a complete novice at sourdough bread making and frankly any form of bread making, I watched a number of Youtube videos including yours to get some tips. Note that I made my starter from a different video which has proven to be great. I learned a lot from all the "how to make sourdough bread" videos but yours provided much more details including some important nuances on how to do this. I wrote down details on each of my attempts to learn from my mistakes. My first attempt was ok but it had some issues. The second tasted good but failed in other ways. The third was fantastic! I reviewed your video at various points on the third one to make sure I did it right and I wanted to thank you. I'll make it more times to get better, but now I know I'm on the right track.

Bread is actually a complex thing to prepare.

Many thanks to the lovely Natasha! 😀.

Thank you Natasha! You did just that- show us with beautiful details to a beautiful sour dough bread. Saved for my soon to be one too! You help us, your followers up our family's menus so perfectly. 💞💞 Bless you & whole family during this Lent 🙏🏼

Beautiful sourdough! I, too, love the ends of the bread as I LOVE the crunch! Thank you!

[kyeates]

Never have I seen a video such as yours that makes a very tough recipe look not only manageable but fun. Yes, there are a number of steps involved but if my Sourdough Bread looks as good as yours, it's all the encouragement (and confidence) I need to try making it myself.

Thank you! So excited to try out the whole process ❤

Thank you for always gracing us with your special spirit and presence.🌹

Use the deeper side for the cast iron cooking. That thin top has less surface area for heat to move. Mine never look like that and i put nothing below it. Just a tip. And usually it will shorten ur end time cooking because of the taller wall. Hope this helps. Love ur crumb look too. Nice air pockets

I do my 3 stretch and folds every 30 mintues right after mixing the dough. Then leave it covered to bulk ferment. Pre shape, final shape and to the fridge. Bake the following day. Yours looks great 😋

Great tutorial.
have made a few loaves by now from different recipes, but always wondered what are the steps from beginning to end. You are actually the first tutorial I watched addressing all the questions and important steps with clear and concise instructions and reasoning. Thank you!

[kilodeltawhisky]

So, just pulled my loaf out of the oven, and it's looking perfect! I followed your instructions as closely as I can and voila! It's cooling now! Smells good
My starter is three weeks old today. Very happy with this. Thank you for your detailed video!
