I'm really excited, someone gave us some 'herman' starter to make a cake, but I went off-piste and used some to make bread.
I used a French country bread recipe, and it was a bit daunting, with loads of stages, but finally by tea time today it was ready, and it was delicious! :) :) :)
I'm so pleased. I'm going to try a shorter recipe now, 24 hours. See if it's as nice. I can't be taking 2 days to make bread very often!
Anyway, just had to share the excitement.
