I just bought Ed Wood's book, Classic Sourdoughs and find the reading interesting. I want to try his method and one of his recipes. Can anyone recommend one that they've especially liked? I've got a whole wheat stiff starter in the works, it's active and growing well and would like to use that instead of my usual white one. Thanks, Anet

wheni hear or read the name
when i hear or read the name Ed Wood the first thing thats comes into my head is
"YOUR STUPID MINDS...STUPID STUPID"
nothing to do with baking and i do hope the people that read this get it
Sorry, I can't help you
I'm not familiar with his book but I did go over to youtube and look up: Ed Wood. Now I know what Norm is writing about. 1955 is the year my parents were married.
Think we could crank out a loaf "Bride of Sourdough" or "It's a Sourdough You Can't Imagine!" "Sourdough Snatchers from Outer Space" as tribute?

the laugh's on me . . .
Norm, when I first read your response, I got a little "ticked" . . . but then Mini Oven clued me in to the truth! (Thanks Mini - I hardly know what youtube is!) I laughed after seeing some of those Hollywood Ed Wood films -- and yes, stupid, but, maybe, just a little cute? Come on, smile? So, I still want to know has anyone read this book, what do you think, have you tried anything? I am trying the basic sourdough batter bread (Bride of Dracula?) as we speak from some leftover starter. It's a baking day -- feeding my other two starters to give them a buzz start, trying Wild Yeast's hamburger buns from a pre-ferment to go with chuck roast slow cooker BBQ, and a "torta della nonna" with polenta and custard and pine nuts. (that one for sure is an experiment) Thanks for the laugh, Anet
Im glad you finaly got it.
Im glad you finaly got it. it was a line fron what was voted the worst movie of all time and if you ever get the chance to see "Plan 9 from outer space" then you will know it lives up to that the title of the worst movie of all time.
VERY VERY glad your not mad.
