SourD. Update 🎉

Firstly, thank you to everyone for your support so far for my little hobby come business. Baking sourdough is a love of mine that grew into more for no other reason than people wanting to eat my bread and sourdough goodies! So without those initial requests I would still be force feeding it all to my family. They thank you too 🤭

As we all know.. summer was a KILLER, especially working in a kitchen. Put simply, I tapped out at that end of May heat wave and priotised my real job (I work with vulnerable and elderly people in the local community), popping SourD. on the back burner aside from bits and bobs to keep my starter alive 🫶

Going forward there is good news and bad news. I am closing my preorder book for new orders. Instead moving to a system where I will make loaves and treats when I can and then they will be posted here and to those regular customers in my dms/whatsapp list on a first come first served basis 🏃‍♀️

That will allow me to refocus the time I have for SourD. into a new and exciting direction. The SourD. catering side, that was so well received back when I was trialling hot food and sandwich ideas, is officially on the hunt for a suitable mobile unit to do pop ups and events with. So watch this space for a SourD. Artisan Sourdough Kitchen.. on wheels! Think smash burgers, hog roasts, insane focaccia sandwiches and elite breakfast baps ❤️

84 weeks into summer and I don't know about everyone else but it still feels icky hot to cook unless doing so outside 🥵

Sandwiches are a regular dinner in this house recently. Steak, garlic butter mushrooms, peppery rocket and mustard mayo in a rosemary and flaked mallorcan sea salt focaccia 🤌

It is not the most fun to put my oven on atm 🥵 but can I introduce the farmhouse butter enriched sourdough loaf.. tastes like a giant sourdough croissant bread 🤤 and makes incredible toast 👌

What do baking and dentistry have in common? Apparently both professions are often the cause of herniated disc injuries to the neck 🙈

I am on the mend and as such my order book is back open for limited orders 🤗

One small change is that currently I am unable to offer delivery sorry. Orders are to be collected from me in St Leonards, just off Boundary Lane 😘

Pic of my personal fave - olive and parmesan 👌

Unfortunately I am still very much out of action 💔 chiropractor hasn't been able to fix me enough to be useful as yet but I am atleast now able to get some sleep! I am making "cheats" sourdough for my family to keep my starter happy, skipping the shaping and long cold proof stage.

As you can see from this pic I can not cut straight and I can not take a decent photo 🤣 But I could gladly still eat this duck breast, rocket, parmesan and fig&shallot chutney in a rustic cheats baguette.. one handed! Definitely not up to standard but keeping things real 🤗
