Day 338: Today is my favourite day of the week. It could be Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday or Sunday and not make a speck of difference. What signifies is that it's Bread Day! Sourdough most frequently is the guest of honour, and today is no exception. It's my go-to bread. I fed the starter yesterday, set the poolish to proof overnight, and this morning started the loaf. The oven is heating up even as I type, and soon the house will be filled with the scent of baking bread. Is there any better smell in the whole wide world? Not in my book! And does anything taste better than homemade bread, freshly and lavishly buttered? I think not. Keep your fancy-schmancy gourmet meals, and just give me the rustic goodness of homemade bread.
