Resolution #233: Learn To Make My Own Sourdough Bread Without Bread Making Machine...

Date: 8-21-2014

Due Date: 8-21-2015

Resolution: The other day I resolved to make my own butter. The only problem is, as I pointed out in said resolution, I don't really use butter all that much.

One of my favorite things to put butter on is fresh sourdough bread. Unfortunately, I don't know of any establishments within walking distance of my apartment where I can buy fresh sourdough bread.

To resolve this problem, rather than just use this homemade butter to grease my cookware or on the rare occasion that I make pancakes, I figured I'd learn something new and figure out how to make my favorite of the breads.

Result #233: Though It Would’ve Gone Perfect With My Homemade Butter, I Failed To Learn To Make Sourdough Bread… Sans Machine… :(

Update #1: The Conclusion…

Date: 8-21-2015

I was really looking forward to making my own bread. When I told a friend I was planning to make sourdough she informed me that it was one of the harder breads to get right. I think that led to me putting it off.

Since I've moved, I've had more time to be able to commit to focusing on a task like this but I haven't had the money to buy supplies.

Now that I have a low but steady income I'll be able to revisit all these low budget financial failures real soon.

As always, I'll let you know when I get to this one.
