Perhaps you dabbled in homemade bread during the pandemic lockdown, nurturing a sourdough starter for months. And if you ultimately abandoned this hobby (My loaves were too dense! I forgot to feed my starter! Store-bought bread is just easier!), maybe it’s time to try leaning in to this ancient practice once again. This week, we’re all about the bread.
