Yes, I’m still making bread. There is no more lockdown, but I got used to the sourdough bread I’ve been making since then (see Bread blog post from April). We did buy one loaf of bread in all this time I didn’t like it any more. Am I going to be a bread snob for the rest of my life?
Since I felt I needed a lot of encouragement to get started, and since I was very confused by all the instructions, I decided to document how I make bread. I guess that’ll add to the confusion – but at the same time I hope it will show that making bread is super simple and flexible. Whatever mistake you make, you can still eat it! 😀

Oh well.
Comment on luminar’s capsule:
In short: it’s not an exact science and when looking for recipes and the like, pick the simplest one, the one with the least number of steps. Such a good point!
