39. Sourdough Baking Without the Hassle | Only 15 minutes per week!

In this episode of the Making It a Home podcast, I’m eliminating the hassle around sourdough to share how easy it can be! If you think sourdough is too hard, complicated, stressful, or time consuming, this episode is FOR YOU!  I’m debunking the time constraints and difficulties around sourdough baking. I’ve been baking our own bread items with sourdough for over 2 years now. We no longer buy baked goods or anything bread related at the grocery store and it doesn’t take me hours a week. It’s honestly less than 30 minutes of hands on time to make it all.  Tune in for helpful tips, a simple explanation on how you can do sourdough baking in less than 15 minutes per week, and tips to help you along the way.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
