About us
The Sourdough Nook has been proudly serving up the finest, freshest and most delicious sourdough breads and treats to my children and our community since 2020.
We believe that each loaf of bread tells a story and they inspire us daily. Each of our starters are named after a personal book hero. As a child, I obsessed over books and series. They allowed my imagination to run wild into another world. They gave me peace, and a hunger for more. This helped start my journey into the nook!
I am a momma to 2, a dog momma to 2 and work a 9-5 in the corporate world, but once I get home, I get to take off the corporate hat and put on my apron. I like to say the 9-5 is for bulk fermentation.
I have always had a passion for cooking but my passion for bread was ignited by gastroparesis. I thought my love affair with bread was over. Sourdough prevented that devastating loss. I’m only mildly joking 🙃. Sourdough is not only delicious but packed with so many nutritional benefits! In case you hadn’t heard, gut health is in 😉 Seriously people, make your own bread, it’s worth it and your body will thank you. I am always looking for ways to improve my gut health and when I started to research, it was one of the first things to pop up. Wait until you find out just how many recipes sourdough starter and sourdough discard can be used in, it’s insane and insanely delicious!
My first go round, I thought, I can do this. I didn’t have a guide, or a starter. I winged it and the journey showed it, Ha! It was a mess! I am not going to do that to you. I have a starter that is amazing & easy directions for reactivation. There are no hidden secrets here, I am an open book! Have questions? I will help! Mistakes will happen, it’s sourdough. It’s a process. A beautiful, therapeutic and relaxing process. The amazing thing about sourdough is that it’s pretty resilient!
I think I have figured out a technique to be able to balance being a working mom and still being able to sourdough. It’s a verb here. I have tips and tricks and multiple recipes to make sure you are successful!
If you are ready to start your sourdough journey and are ready to bake ASAP, our starters are dehydrated and ready to ship! They are super active, strong and well established. Please visit our Starters page to learn more about each of them and their individualities. I can’t wait for you to start your baking Journey!
