Now I can’t stop craving sourdough. Being from the east coast, I’m not sure if I’ve ever had a good sourdough bread. My friend from San Jose says it doesn’t exist out here. I did try Boudin’s when in San Fran, which was good if I remember correctly. Now I am determined to have a big old slice. Is it best with butter?

Nicole, enjoy the bread… From what I hear, it doesn’t take long for the wild yeast in your own kitchen to replace those in a starter from elsewhere, so you may only have a few weeks to still have that Sicilian taste in your bread. The good part is that wherever home ends up, your bread will reflect that eventually.

Only a few more days to do this daily post thing… Then you can breathe for a day or two.

Looks wonderful to me – both the pictures and bread. The thing is — homemade bread is so satisfying that even when it’s not perfect, it’s delicious!

This bread looks fabulous to me Nicole! I can tear into those loaves and not even need the gobs of butter I normally put on my bread. Photos are stunning and I can smell the bread from Central California!
