After the sourdough bread boule is scored and properly adorned, I move the entire boule with the parchment paper, into an already preheated oven with hot Dutch ovens.

These are baked approximately 20-25 minutes with the Dutch oven lid in place so that the steam stays in the pan with the bread boule allowing it to expand and rise without drying out the crust of the boule.

Aren't these House Finch eggs just darling?!

In the process of pruning the dead petunia's, I found a next with an egg. Over the next 4 days, an additional egg kept appearing! It's been fun to watch Mama and Papa House Finch care for these eggs.

Can't wait to hear babies chirping!

We will not be at the Bartlesville Farmers Market tomorrow, however, both Price's Old Fashion Meat Market and Early Bird Market have traditional sourdough boules!

Early Bird also has honey sandwich loaf, cinnamon swirl loaf, cinnamon raisin loaf, and some cute little flower bouquets to brighten up your weekend.

Scoring, or slicing into, your sourdough boule not only can give it a lovely design, but it is how you help the sourdough boule expand exactly where you want it to create a beautiful 'ear'.

You can use a knive, sourdough lame, or a razor blade, which is my preferred method to slice at an angle to help it know where to expand.

Beautifying your boule is not a requirement, but it sure is fun!

Our garden is exploding with life.

There's just something lovely about using the produce and herbs that you grew to season and flavor your food and help feed your family.

As an added benefit, working in the garden is beautifully relaxing and rewarding.

Sourdough Fun Fact #6

Salt Is More Important in Sourdough Than Just Flavor

While many people say that salt isn't really that important in sourdough and just provides the flavor, you might be surprised to know that it actually does a lot more than this.

"Salt is responsible for helping to build a stronger gluten network, tempering fermentation and preserving the bread. While some countries do indeed bake bread without salt, forgetting to add salt to sourdough bread will result in a sticky, weak dough that really doesn't taste good at all."
