I had a breakthrough with bagels this week! Then I realized that you may not know the process that takes place behind the scenes. Every season, temperature change, humidity change, impacts every product I bake. Every season I need to relearn what works and doesn’t. There are so many variables from the starter used, the ingredients, the mixing, stretch and folds, even the pans that are used. They all impact the end result. I am a homebaker without the climate controlled rooms, proofing containers, and commercial mixers. What I bake is by hand. This is why things don’t look the same from week to week. I will also never deliver anything that I don’t stand 100% behind. So, there are times when I’ve refunded because I was not happy with the end result or I had to push back a delivery date. With that, I want to say I am so fortunate for your continued support through my endless sourdough journey. This is a note to myself that things aren’t going to be perfect every time. It’s ALWAYS a learning process. Lucky for you though, they’re ALWAYS going to be delicious! ☺️ Thanks!
