I salute you my fellow baker🤗, hihi. 10 years of experience, wow, I think that you could teach me a thing or two about the process. Life lessons and bread making...you are right! Patience and gratitude is one of them. I can't rush it and when I take the first bite I feel grateful. It is rewarding to watch it grow and to eat it knowing that it is a product that came from working with my own hands.
Have you tried different types of flour, what works the best, from your experience, in order to get a really good sourdough bread?
