Favorite Sourdough Things

I still feel like I’m a beginner but here are my Favorite Sourdough Things.

I’ve been doing sourdough for about 3 years and I still feel like I’m a beginner and a learning so much. If I could just learn how to shape the bread that’d be awesome. Anyways, there a few things that I have loved having to help me be successful.

I collect more and more as I go through the years. Baking sourdough is so relaxing to me, when I’m feeling stressed and overwhelmed baking sourdough brings me some calm. I love to give bread to others also.

Danish Dough Hook – I love this whisk so much! My friend gave me this and it’s so nice for mixing not only sourdough but also, focaccia and tortillas and all the things!

Ankarsrum Mixer – Matt got me this mixer for Christmas last year and I love it so much. It mixes dough better than my Kitchenaid did. It’s so great for dough and bread and all the things. It has two different bowls and it’s just super cool! I love it.

Brod and Taylor Proofing Box – This is a game changer. Matt got me this for my birthday and I can not believe the difference it makes to have consistent temperature. My bread rose so fast and was incredible. I fully enjoy this.

Brod and Taylor Baking Shell – Kim got me this and it also was a game changer. My bread browned so beautifully and was so crisp and crunchy. I love it. It’s so freaking fun.

Chef’n Pastry Bench Scraper – This bench scraper is awesome and it was only about $16 and it was great for cutting dough and rolls. It’s cheap but awesome.

Banneton Proofing Baskets – These are nice once you shape your loaves and they are great for the second rise. This really helped with the shaping and keeping the bread in shape. Still need to work on my shaping skills.
