"Trust the process and quit rushing things just because they don't come together right away."
Jean pulled her Rosemary Garlic Parmesan loaf out of the oven and even her husband noticed the difference. Not dense. Not heavy. Open crumb. The kind of bread she'd been chasing.
The breakthrough? She measured by weight, followed the recipe, and when the dough seemed like it didn't want to come together, she fought the urge to add extra water. She waited. And everything clicked.
She also turned her sourdough discard into noodles for chicken soup. That's the sourdough life right there.
Jean's takeaway for all of us: The dough knows what it's doing. Give it time.
