A few people have asked about how I make my sourdough starter. I've previously made my own, but this time I actually bought mine from Cultures for Health: http://www.culturesforhealth.com/zen/index.php Mine is the New England starter, and I really enjoy it. It's not hard to make your own, though. Here is a great tutorial: http://heavenlyhomemakers.com/blog/category/sourdough-starter (You have to scroll all the way down to the bottom of the page and work your way back up) I've done this type of method before, and it really does work and isn't hard to do!

I've been making this bread for a few months now. So easy and we love it!

Gotta love Above Rubies! *smiles*
This does look very easy and simple. I'll have to try some when I get home to the states.

I saw this in Above Rubies and frankly, I thought, "hmm...that looks too hard!" But the way you've explained it looks simple! Thank you! I am a newbie to your blog... and I'm really enjoying it!
Blessings!

Sounds great, I will have to try this during the summer.

So far I have finally found a recipe that works for us for wheat bread (but I can't eat it) that is frugal and that I can actually make, and that my family likes. So its improving...my bread making skills I mean.

I love sourdough and need to figure out how I can use it for my gluten free kids. What do you think I can use instead of the rye? I'm nervous to try it with using only Kamut....
Thanks for sharing - I LOVE your recipes!

I would like to try your bread recipe sometime but first I would need to make the sourdough starter.

I do bake bread for my husband and I. I use organic products at this time and eventually when the budget allows I would like to buy the grains and mill it myself.
