Our Firedough has been several years of learning and experimentation on our road trips, in a somewhat stubborn endeavour to have our house sourdough loaf with us as we adventure Unpredictable weather, humidity, unsteady temperatures, make feeding the starter very different from the steady and reliable environment at home, as is baking the bread over a fire in a thick cast iron cauldron and finishing on coals also full of temperature variations from start to finish. Over the years, there have been burnt loaves, and raw loaves and flat loaves and everything in between. We don’t bring the bread scale, it’s all just done intuitively with some very basic items (which sometimes results in some rather gigantic loaves lol) Needless to say, it’s all very much worth the satisfaction of opening our cauldron and seeing that gorgeous golden crust in the middle of the woods The starter is always left out in the fresh air as we travel, and so it is given the opportunity to collect a diversity of microbiome nourishing wild yeasts and microbes. Being the kind of people whose camping mostly involves never being at the actual campsite, it also gives us a moment of slowing down a little in the evenings to tend to our bread, a gift of hearth ❤️#sourdough #fermentation #adventures #sourdoughbread #firebread #campfire #fermentedfoods #firecooking #bread #inthewoods #camping #dowhatmakesyouhappy #lifeisbeautiful #gratitude #hearth #nourishing #wholefoods #sprouted #naturallyleavened #microbiome #wildyeast #wildyeastbread #earth #brot
