What difference 6,600 feet make. I last tried to make bread at 7000 feet in Flagstaff Arizona. I was gifted with a fresh sourdough starter last week. I admit to being skeptical if I would be able to make a decent loaf as my experience with sourdough has been limited and not so successful. Over the week, I fed the starter dutifully which looked good and bubbly. I also found a straight forward dutch oven recipe and went for it. No extra yeast, just flour, water, salt, and starter.
I am rather pleased with the outcome.
We used to make sourdough pancakes when we lived in Maryland and Virginia, but I never made bread that looked nearly that good. We carefully moved our starter to Louisiana--where it got moldy.
Not to plug a YouTube Channel, but my wife found this one and has a two day process to doing sourdough. YouTube: Homesteading with the Zimmermans https://youtu.be/E9E7-VCMWXo?si=ezcH_4NgbCa69ItL
