Mrs. Rider's Kitchen

2nd Birthday was a sock Monkey cake made by Aunt Brenda Davis

16th birthday still a Paul Frank sock Monkey fan!

Birthday cake in the making!

Lydia is turning 16!

Finished products! 1 regular sourdough, 1 Everything bagel seasoning sourdough and one savory focaccia bread with tomato, rosemary, basil and garlic.

Over-proofed for focaccia bread, now to decide what kind sweet or savory?

Ready for the oven but I'm ready for bed so I'm going to put them in the fridge and bake tomorrow. The longer you cold ferment the stronger the sour taste.

Sourdough bread in the making, here are some photos of the steps taken to make it.

*Starter that has been fed and risen significantly

*Add 125g of starter
*325g of warm water
*12g olive oil
*12g honey
*12g of salt
*500g flour, I just use unbleached all purpose
That's it! Simple ingredients! This is for a sandwich bread loaf.

The amount of starter I had in the jar made up 3 batches of dough (3 loaves of bread)
With 112g left over which I fed equal parts water and flour to start the process over.

I'll post pics when they are finished!
