The start of my bread making journey

Hello Everyone!

For my fermentation project, I've decided to make sourdough bread. I've always had a passion for cooking, and I've cooked many things, but oddly enough I've never made my own bread.
Sourdough bread is one of the few kinds I've never eaten, which is actually one of the reasons why I decided to make give it a try! I saw sourdough bread made on the cooking channel recently, and since that day I've always wanted to try it... I guess there's no better time than now.

To make this particular bread, there's a few things that you will need:
 
Ingredients
 
  • 2 cups of bread flour
  • 1 1/2 cups of a sourdough starter (the recipe follows)
  • 3/4 teaspoon salt
Basic sourdough starter
  • 3 cups of warm water (approximately 110 degrees F)
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons of an active dry yeast
  • 1 teaspoon of sugar
  • 3 cups of all purpose flour
 
I'm excited to start this journey into the bread making world. I hope everyone enjoys it, and I can't wait to try everyone else's foods! Good luck :)
