Scoring your sourdough bread before baking can make a delicious loaf looks even more amazing!

Did you know that rice flour is the best flour to dust your bread with since it doesn’t burn when baked. Wheat flour can burn when baked.

I would love to see some of your scoring designs! Please share your pictures.

Freshly milled flour can completely change your sourdough baking. When wheat berries are ground into flour, they immediately begin losing nutrients, flavor, and natural oils. Store-bought flour can sit on shelves for months, while freshly milled flour gives your dough the full nutritional profile and flavor the grain was meant to have.

Grinding your own wheat right before baking keeps the bran, germ, and endosperm intact β€” meaning your flour contains more vitamins, minerals, fiber, and natural oils than conventional flour.

Benefits of Freshly Milled Flour for Sourdough

1. Higher Nutritional Value
Fresh flour retains nutrients like B vitamins, vitamin E, iron, magnesium, and healthy fats that degrade over time in commercial flour.

2. Better Flavor
Freshly milled wheat has a rich, slightly sweet, nutty flavor that adds depth and complexity to sourdough bread.

3. Stronger Fermentation
Because fresh flour still contains the natural oils and microorganisms from the grain, sourdough starters often ferment more actively.

4. More Control Over Texture
Grinding your own wheat allows you to adjust the fineness of the flour, giving you control over crumb texture and hydration level

Is your sourdough starter ready to bake with? πŸ₯–

In this 3-stage guide, you can SEE exactly what to look for before mixing your dough.

✨ Stage 1: Just Fed
Thick, smooth, and freshly mixed. Mark the level so you can track growth.

✨ Stage 2: Rising
Bubbles are forming. It’s expanding and building strength.

✨ Stage 3: Ready & Bubbly (PEAK!)
βœ” Doubled in size
βœ” Slight dome on top
βœ” Lots of bubbles throughout
βœ” Light, airy texture
βœ” Smells pleasantly tangy

This is the sweet spot for baking sourdough bread with great oven spring.

If your starter has fallen or smells sharply acidic, it’s past peak. Feed it again and wait for the next rise.
