I bake sourdough, whats your superpower?
I've been having so much fun baking. I've learned a lot from the people here, I'm so glad I found The Fresh Loaf! In just a couple months I've gone from bricks to beautiful delicious artisan loaves. Well, mostly. I still have a lot to learn--last nights loaf was overproofed, but still delicious.
Predictably, as a designer, I wanted to show off my new sourdough skills by designing a shirt for me to wear. I thought, I want to wear it, maybe other people do too. And... the project kind of expanded.
If you want to take a look, here are the links to my blog about the project, or just straight to the shirt page.

Of perfectly timing final proofing
I could certainly use that one. I overproofed my loaf last night, it ended up looking wrinkled and deflated. Tasted alright though. :-)
Yet most difficult. The difference between a great loaf, mediocre loaf and flop.
baking is knowing when to stick it in the oven. Once you decide there is no going back and fixing it and if you aren't right the bread can be oh so wrong . One day soon we will likely have nano bots placed in dough that will call your iPhone and tell you to put the bread in the heat - and braid it if you ask them nicely in machine language :-)
I... Am the Waffler. With my griddle of justice™ I bash the enemy in the head or I burn them. Provided they aren't too far from a power outlet...
