My first loaf of sourdough, and it turned out better than expected with my young starter. The crumb was a little more uniform and fine than I would prefer, but it was a good start. I also made it with half white and half whole wheat flour. However, I think the whole wheat over powered the tang in the sourdough, so next time it's all white flour in the recipe. Hopefully, this will be something I can perfect (at least for my taste) fairly quickly so I can get another recipe up on the blog. Very pleased though with the initial result.
I'll try to make a few more loaves by the weekend, in hopes to also put up the recipe for one of my top 3 favorite sandwiches of all time...using sourdough, of course. Any guesses??

Favorite sandwich: some kind of salami with cheese and peppers?
Yes, you definitely need to send me one to sample!!!
And Booyah's sandwich idea sounds awesome!!
looks perfect. i know what you mean about adding whole wheat. some breads just weren't meant for the wheat taste.
