First Loaf of Bread with My Week Old Starter

My starter, let's call him Ol' Yeasty, is a week old and I decided to make a loaf of bread to celebrate!


He has been quite active, and despite his youth and inexperience, I decided to let him have a go.  We made a simple boule, Ol' Yeasty and I.


Not the best oven-spring, not the best crumb, but it was a wonderful first effort for the young fellow, and there was a decided sour note to the bread.  I do like that!




I am looking forward to my next try.
