San Francisco-style Sourdough Bread Recipe


San Francisco-Style Sourdough Bread Recipe
I make a double recipe so I can freeze one if it's still not eaten for later date. Got this from internet and use it now all the time. For a bread machine, but you talented breadmakers can adapt.

This i bet is good!!!Thank


Sounds good, saved and will try. I watched a cooking show on PBS, they used a box cutter for cutting the top. A bakery in Berkley,CA. I have a friend who is going to give me sourdough starter he bought in Alaska from a bakery. He has to bake two loafs, eats the first one from oven and then saves the second for later. Yummy hot sour dough, I like it.


This sounds awesome, I'm going to try to overcome my trepidation in the bread-making dept. and give it a go. I LOVE sourdough bread and haven't been to San Fran in years ... sigh.
:-)
