Your simple guide to foolproof sourdough bread with minimal effort.

Basic Loaf: My simple guide to foolproof Sourdough bread.

Right then, let's talk sourdough. Fancy making ridiculously tasty bread that looks like it came from some artisan bakery, but without chaining yourself to the kitchen? You're in the right place. Forget complicated schedules and weird rituals. This is sourdough for normal people – people with jobs, kids, lives! My method is all about letting time (and a bit of bubbly magic) do the heavy lifting. Simple steps, minimal faff, maximum deliciousness. Sound good? Let's get baking!

Who is this For?

This method is perfect for sourdough beginners, busy people, or anyone previously scared off by complicated recipes. If you want great bread without the stress, stick around!

The Basic Loaf Approach

We use a simple 2-day process, but most of that time is completely hands-off, letting the dough slowly ferment and develop amazing flavour while you get on with your life. Day 1 involves a quick mix, then Day 2 is baking day!
