The Rhythm of Sourdough 10 Aug 2025 • 1 min read

How baking bread with wild yeast becomes part of daily life.

Sourdough isn’t just bread — it’s a living relationship. You feed the starter, it rewards you with bubbles and tang, and together you create loaves that carry the flavour of time.

The process shapes your day: mixing in the morning, folding through the afternoon, baking as the evening light fades. Every loaf is a little different — the weather, your timing, even your mood can subtly change the outcome.

Baking sourdough teaches patience and attentiveness. It asks you to slow down and trust in something you can’t rush. And when you cut into a crust still crackling from the oven, you taste more than flour and water — you taste the care you’ve invested.
