  • Would You Like to Learn How to Bake Bread?
    Jan Kovarik

    Even if you have never baked bread before, I can just about guarantee that your precise first loaf down of the oven will be so mouth-watering that you’ll amaze yourself (not to mention family and friends)!

    Up until 1990, I’d never made a single thing that called for yeast. In fact, if a recipe did include yeast, I avoided it same THE PLAGUE! I’ve never been a “Donna Reed” homemaker and I’ve been told that I don’t “cook,” I merely “prepare” things to eat. So, when an eery gift of a cup of Sourdough Starter came my way, I was at a whole loss. However, the friend who distributed the starter with me had a delightfully documented family history about the origins of the starter and how her family had “kept it alive” down through cardinal generations. Who was I to say “Thanks” and past take it domestic and pour it down the sink?

    Luckily, I was acquainted with a diploma’d gourmet cook and I upside-down to her for help. Sourdough Starter in hand and a recipe that dated back to the mid-1800s, I spent one extraordinary Saturday in her kitchen learning the art of making homemade bread. When my first loaf came out of the oven, I stood there in disbelief! (And then, we tore it open and slathered it with butter and ate the WHOLE THING!)

    OK, so enough active all this, let’s get on with getting you started. First, this is not a recipe for bread machines. I don’t personal one. My single “bread machine” is a large crock mixing bowl, a big wooden spoon, a 31-year-old pastry cloth (a bridal shower gift from my mother), and my two hands. If you are looking for bread machine recipes, past search the Web---you’ll find oodles! I make bread by hand, from scratch, for the relaxation and personal satisfaction it brings me. So beware, you’ll be getting your hands right into the dough! If this isn’t for you, then by all means, pass it by (or give it to a friend who might like to make bread by hand).

    Now you are going to need the Sourdough Starter. Please visit http://janktheproofer.com/SourdoughBread/JansDough.htm.This web page will take you to my easy-to-follow recipes for some the starter and Basic Sourdough Bread---and lots and lots of helpful hints!

    I suggest that you print the recipes for some the starter and the bread. You should know up front that it’s going to take about 10 days to “grow” your first batch of starter (I’d love to share a cup of it with you, but technology hasn’t quite mastered the art of sending incarnate objects via cyber-space!). Once you get started, you can email me directly (using the email address found on the recipe pages) if you have any questions. I’ll be happy to hold you hand while you create your first batch of homemade Sourdough Bread!

    Oh, cardinal thing, though…better be sure to have a tub of butter handy! You’re not going to be able to resist it…
