Listen to my podcast with Heather Currier, host of the Sourdough Mamas Podcast. We talk about all things sourdough bread!
I really need to do more podcasts. Writing about sourdough bread is one thing, but talking about it makes me feel so alive! I got the chance to chat with Heather Currier, host of the Sourdough Mamas Podcast about all things sourdough: my baking journey, sourdough discard recipes, personal tips and SO much more. Honestly, I could talk about bread all day. But for now, 40 minutes is the sweet spot ;) Go check it out {click on the video above}. I’m hoping it will inspire you.
Also, slightly off topic (but super important): Heather is an expert on high altitude sourdough baking. If this applies to you, and you’re done struggling with weird bread due to elevation issues, make sure to read this: How to Make High Altitude Sourdough Bread. You’ll also find an excellent collection of sourdough episodes on her podcast. How amazing is this community?! Enjoy everyone!

I feed a one to one to one ratio of 25 grams. My recipe calls for 150 grams of starter, do I add a 150 flour and water to my 25 grams or do I have to increase my initial starter in advance?

I love the postcast! We my son was small he would help in the kitchen, his way. I had a cornstarch and cars in a container for him. The phone, corded, rang and he took his container to the floor. Watching him I was amazed, he made a homeplate. He ran around and around sliding into home. He was given flour after this fun, so slippery. Now he is an amazing home cook and supports his wife’s sourdough journey. I looking forward to future postcasts, tips, tricks and recipes š

I have purchased your book , has not arrived. I have been working on my starter from knead in St. Louis and it looks and smells great and doubles when I feed . This am I was going to bake but when I drop the starter in warm water it sinks? Please help:)

Your book set me on my sourdough journey and I now bake weekly for two markets and also do deliveries. My phone keeps telling me that I am almost out of memory because of all my starter, dough, and bread photos and people start nervously backing away during bread talk and when I start showing them these photos I sometimes see that the are struggling to politely excuse themselves. Ha! Okay so maybe that last was an exaggeration, but I love your cookbook. I have become a sourdough snob, sniffing dismissively at sourdough cookbooks and recipes that include commercial yeast. And I just found your sourdough banana bread here on your blog and we LOVED it!

Loved the podcast, had to buy both Your recipe book and Emily’s, of which I’ve had in my shopping basket online for some time..
Thank you so very much, I will use til’ I die š.
Will definitely try pasta as well.
Love being self sustainable and I’m excited about being about to use my stand mixer w/attachments. My wrist and basal thumb joints are in bad shape.
