Three Sisters I have been looking forward to maki

Three Sisters

I have been looking forward to making this bread all year.

Native Americans named their companion crops of corn, beans and squash the 'Three Sisters', because of the synergistic and mutually beneficial effect they had on each other when planted together in the same garden plot.

I wanted to bring this tradition and wisdom into a recipe, so began it by slow cooking black beans and pumpkin with onion, garlic, jalapeño and rosemary. All this cooked on low heat overnight, and was then added to dough which included around 20% masa flour.

Out of the oven, these loaves have a subtle golden hue and a delicious earthy aroma. I have not cut into one yet, but will hopefully give you an update tomorrow.

I'll have a dozen of these, plus cranberry herb, country, country sandwich and five seed loaves for you tomorrow at IX market, 9am-1pm. Bread usually sells out around 11am, so don't wait!

UPDATE: Delicious loaf. The subtle sweetness of the masa paired with the earthy, savory beans and squash remind me of the fullness of summer as we transition into the colder seasons. So much to be grateful for.

The only thing I was surprised by was how subtle the additions ended up. I will likely double the amount of inclusions next batch. Probably my favorite loaf I have made thus far.

After a few unexpected twists and turns, @goodphyt

After a few unexpected twists and turns, @goodphyte and I have found our new bakery home! The lease is signed, the keys are in hand, and we are in the process of transforming it into a beautiful, functional, accessible kitchen and retail space.

We are very excited, and full up to our ears with painting, ordering, installing, dreaming big, weed pulling and coordinating with contractors. I will have pictures to share soon, as it becomes a more recognizable bakery. After all the dirty work gets done, we will go through all the necessary inspections and hopefully be firing up the ovens for full production by Jan 1, 2022. I also have a new employee ready to jump in, as soon everything is up and running.

In the meantime, I am still baking from home and savoring my last few months here. There are many things I will miss about baking here, and some things I still don't have any idea how to make work away from home. Even in the sweetness and convenience of my little kitchen, with family life intertwined with my work life...I feel ready for the expansion. And, I'll wager, so are they!

Thank you thank you to everyone who has been supporting this huge leap. I look forward to sharing more soon!

Making progress on the GF sourdough sandwich loaf. It is challenging to make gf sourdough bread soft without huge amounts of water or starch, or any other added ingredients!

Milling our flour for this weeks bake with the Mockmill. Our main bread flour is a blend of organic millet, organic buckwheat and organic oats. I think it is almost time for second mill!

I had a great time firing off a few pizzas for @goodphyte yesterday. Thanks to Stacy for getting this picture before they all disappeared.

I think this one was organic san marzano tomatoes, fresh mozzarella, shiitaki and basil.

Still getting the hang of the new #ooni pizza oven and gf sourdough crust, but pleased on the progress.

Sorry, market customers, for running out of bread

Sorry, market customers, for running out of bread so quickly. A whole round of bread did not work out and I came to the market with less than usual.

Also, If you ended up with a loaf like this, let me know and I will give you a better one next week!

Wholegrain poppy & cardamom loaves. I've had some

Wholegrain poppy & cardamom loaves. I've had some recent success with wholegrain recipes, so I wanted to bring a test run to #ixparkfarmersmarket tomorrow. If these pass the breakfast test tomorrow morning, come try one! 9am-1pm.

@goodphyte and I have some VERY BIG NEWS to share.

@goodphyte and I have some VERY BIG NEWS to share...coming soon! We have been working hard behind the scenes over the summer, and are excited to share our progress.

Until then, please enjoy this sneak peek filmed by my 4yr old son, Caleb.

I am really looking forward to jumping into this book. Thanks to @thesourdoughpodcast for having Eric on the show and continuing to inspire us.

I love that while this book is focused mainly on sourdough from a wheat perspective, gluten and gluten-free sourdough still rely on the same community of microflora, and the same rhythms, for their existence. The essence of our culture, craft and history remains the same, despite the many differences in our recipes and methods.

Sometimes I feel a bit isolated as a gluten-free sourdough baker with a cottage bakery, but just listening to the interview with Eric (and then binging on the other great conversations) has helped me feel that we gluten-free bakers are indeed part of this greater sourdough culture.
Perhaps on the less-populated edge of our collective sourdough (re?)evolution, but still connected and just as valid as the age-old sourdough traditions we hold so dear.

So thanks again @thesourdoughpodcast, and Eric Pallant, for helping hold even the non-glutenous parts of our community together.
