Hello!
I can’t believe it is Easter this weekend! I hope you are able to celebrate the joy of Jesus' resurrection!
When it is cold outside, we like to bake an extra amount and then freeze items for when our schedules are full and we are extra busy. This works out great to always have food that is nutrient dense and keeps up from spending extra money at the store for convenience items.
When the prices in the store are rising, there is hope that you can save money and reduce expenses! Making your own bread is so much cheaper, healthier, and simpler than you may think. I now make sourdough on a regular basis, but even regular homemade bread doesn’t have all the harmful ingredients in them that a loaf of store bought bread has.
I always wondered if it would make sense to take the time to make my own bread as a busy mom when my family enjoys that walmart sandwich bread for a buck. And then I read the ingredients! So many benefits to making your own bread. Once I made it a few times, I then had a schedule down and we do buy bread every once in a great while, but for the most part, we always have fresh bread on hand or in the freezer.
I think so many people think that making bread is hard. It is so simple that you will wish you started making it yourself years ago. Sourdough bread only consists of 3 ingredients which are water, flour, and starter! I really enjoy making sourdough and when I first started making it, I bought a starter from king arthur and that is where I order my flour as well as from azure standard. Make sure you are using a high quality flour when making your sourdough. That may be the reason yours is not turning out, so try some good flour before you give up.
Make this one change for 6 months and see how you like it! I don’t think you will ever go back to buying ibread from the store!!!!!
Have a Blessed Easter Day!
Monica
