Yfritz asked about my breadmaking adventures. This is sourdough surprise bread. The surprise is that there is leftover rice baked into it which I cannot taste, feel, or see. I also cannot taste much sourdough flavor, perhaps because I used a yeast that is supposed to replicate sourdough rather than an actual sourdough starter. In any case, it’s delicious. Gonna look for some more reduced gluten or gluten free options next as the whole wheat walnut bread did not agree with my partner’s tummy. And someday also will have a real strong sourdough to share.  

The walnut bread looks really good 

Yes thank you it was  

What a beauty, I can smell it😍 

Thank you @yfritz we were just talking about the yummy smell  

Hi Cindy, What type of yeast replicate a sourdough starter? 

P.S. Your crust looks awesome. Did you make one big round or is the pic a close up of an individual roll? 

Hi ACB it’s red star brand instant sourdough, yeast plus sourdough culture. There’s not much in the package though, so I think it’s a volume issue. That’s a 1-lb loaf in the picture (with slice removed).
