Who doesn’t want to bake the “perfect” sourdough bread? I have looked forward to that day! So far, I haven’t achieved the perfect loaf! But I keep on trying, and the fun is in trying. If you remember, I said when I started that I was going to be honest about things and even if it was a flop I would let you know! Well guess what? I flopped!! Not only did I flop once, but twice!! Most people learn the first time, but I guess I am too hard-headed to learn, or maybe I was just hoping I had not done something right the first time. Sadly, that was not the case!!!
I did all the stretch and pulls and I did the overnight second rise in the fridge, but none of it helped! It just did not suit me and I think the recipe was not right on some of the measurements! I have a scale and I measured exactly like the recipe called for. But the dough was just not right!! I knew it from that point, but I kept hoping for the best, so I baked it!
It is a cinnamon honey bread so that is the inside view! Y’all, I worked hard on this bread and it is very disappointing to not be satisfied with it!! Will I give up on trying? Never!!! Press on I must!!! I will achieve better results in time so quitting is not in my book!!! So what do you do with that less than “perfect”(not even close to perfect) loaf? Do you throw it out with the trash? Or do you find another way to try and make it better? This is what I did with mine. French toast with honey! So if you find yourself being disappointed with something you bake, don’t quit, keep trying! You will get there eventually!!
