Notes about Recipes in this book

  • My enriched sourdough pesto babka

    • kimtrev on January 01, 2026

      The swirl in this bread is not very prominent, but the flavor and texture are lovely. It took a lot longer than 4 hours to proof in my December kitchen temperature so be sure to have patience. It is worth it!

  • My sourdough baguettes

    • michele_rkidsu on December 22, 2025

      Doubled the recipe--- absolutely perfection. Another Elaine Boddy WIN!!!!
