Let's make sourdough bread!!

Sourdough! Ok, let’s do this together! Apparently dry yeast is getting scarce (is no good for bread baking anyway), fresh yeast is tough to obtain (I’m out) which leaves us with sourdough (that’s the proper way anyway). Now, this is not going to happen over-night as you will have to get your levain (your starter, your mother, or whatever you want to call it) going first. Usually I would recommend a continuous feeding regiment of more then two month to establish flavour complexity, but in consideration of everyone’s situation let’s try to get enough leavening power established that we can try to have your first sourdough breads out off your oven in maybe a week or two! Please share this post with as many people as interested and I will try to provide daily updates to guide you through the process! If you are up to it, start mixing today 100g of white flour (I’m using Rogers Whistler) with 100 ml of water (if you can sneak in 10% rye flour - very high in natural wild yeast). Mix well together, cover it and leave it at room temperature over-night. We will get back to it tomorrow! Happy Baking - together we can do this Chef Marco | let me know who is doing it! Questions in this post please, update tomorrow!

Last night I made some Japanese Pudding / Crème Caramel and decided to pair it with whatever I could found in my fridge. Turned out amazing, just wished I had some shaved ice🍨

// Breakfast at Chambar //
I was there for the waffles they make fresh every morning outdoor in their patio. But left satisfied by their elegantly composed omelette, a good change from those American version that's often too cheesy or greasy. @ Chambar Restaurant

"Taking the trip to Cordes sur Ciel made me realize the determination behind every beautiful photo. First, you need to stop telling yourself it couldn't be done. Then, start walking forward. It's the best feeling when you get there." -Maggie Hung [ 08.13.2014]

Today I am inspired by this girl who took the unbeaten path and surprised herself at what she could accomplish once she sets her mind to it. 👈🚶

// Embrace with an open mind //
So I decided to tackle my biggest obstacle head on by returning to my previous career. Unconventional yes, but in some ways I felt a big burden was lifted and I find myself once again optimistic of my future. It's true that everything comes in its time, not now does not mean never.

I hope you find these bits of sharing enjoyable and would continue to follow me as I share more of my journey along the way. 💕

//Take a step in the general direction //
I was never a person of clear goals, and I'm starting to realize that's ok. Generally I know what makes me happy and what makes my heart pounces with excitement, so I'm going to walk that direction. The first obstacle in front of me was financial insecurity and the constant doubt that I took a wrong turn by leaving my better paying career. (To be Cont'd)

// If I had all the time in the world, I'll spend it in the kitchen//
Not true, a couple months ago I was between jobs and with Kayden in daycare I had spare time at my disposal. Days flew by and I find myself without any substantial accomplishment. Aware of my financial situation, I wasn't motivated to make anything at all just because everything is ultimately tied to a cost. No clear goal in sight I felt lost , I did't know where I'm going... (To be cont'd)

// Good things come to those who waits//
Each pineapple is hand picked and allowed to ripe fully before they are chopped, puréed, and slowly cooked until it reduces down to a sweet gummy candy like texture full of the fruits natural flavour.🍍🍍🍍
