Remember this sourdough doughnut recipe from exactly two years ago? This has been the most popular recipe on the blog, which kind of makes me think that nothing can’t stop us from eating a delicious doughnut.

Hello world! It’s what you usually write when you publish your first post, right? Well, this is my first post this year, though it looks like I’ve got stuck somewhere in August 🙂 Time flies really fast. It flies even faster when you’re involved in too many things and you forget to breathe in between…

Looking at my last post, it looks I’ve never returned  from Sicily 🙂 Well, I didn’t in a way. The memories of beautiful Sicily and its gorgeous landscape and spending time and creating new projects with Clear Sicily team are still so alive. More of the Sicily is coming in the next months and I…

You know that feeling when you travel somewhere and it feels good, almost like home, and it feels like soul has anchored? I had this feeling when visiting Sicily a year and a half ago. I promised myself to come back. I didn’t know when and I haven’t been making any plans to come back,…

There were some sunny Christmas days spent in the mountains and there was a car crash couple of days later. I was overlooked and there was nothing I could do. I was in shock and I wasn’t in shock. I was angry. The moment of collision was long and it was short. I didn’t know…

​I later learnt that this fruit bread was well known bread in German spoken countries (Austria, Germany), where it is called kletzenbrot. Kletzen is a German word for dried pears and brot means bread. Kletzenbrot is traditional Christmas fruit bread (besides stollen). This year I decided to bake this delicious bread (in simplified and non-…

It’s the first day of December. Looking back to the childhood, December always ment expectations. Expectations of warmth, kindness, visits, feeling good, having fun, but most of all, the arrival of St. Nicholas. He brought presents – oranges, dry fruits, walnuts and sometimes also some toys. St. Nicholas day is celebrated in many European countries…

To reflect, to rest and to build up again for the next season. Not many words are needed for these pumpkin sourdough…

My relationship with eggs has always been strange. Sometimes I wouldn’t have eaten eggs for months and next I’m eating them 14 days in a row. Well, I guess strange would just mean listening and adapting to my body’s protein needs. But one thing I know for sure. Eggs are one of my favorite autumn…

Freestyling is a kind of skill I am still learning in my life. It’s about how to act spontaneously, from the heart and without being burdened by many “what if-s” and “it should-s”. It’s about riding the flow and about being present in each moment, observing what is happening and re-acting accordingly. Writing this, I…

It was four year ago when I first started with my sourdough baking journey. I decided to give up commercial yeast, since I felt tired all the time (especially after eating bread and other foods made with yeast), I wasn’t motivated to do anything, had trouble concentrating throughout the day and my abdomen was bloated.…

What often happens to me is that when I have sourdough bread I don’t have anything to put on a slice of it. And when the fridge is full of pestos, cheese, fresh vegetables, etc., I don’t have my sourdough bread (I could call this bad planning). I didn’t want to make an exception this…

When I was younger I would often ask my mom to make me a plum jam swirl bread. It was my ultimate comfort food. I got lost in the velvety crumb texture and seductive scent of baked plums and crunchy crust burnt in the wood-fired stove. Many years later I know that stepping into comfort…

Sometimes the simplest things are the best and most hearth-warming. You know, a cup of tea after a long day, an umbrella from a stranger on a stormy day, sunrise on a way to work, the sound of bees on a flowering apple tree. And a fresh butter on a freshly baked sourdough bread. I…

Do you know the feeling when you have a picture of what something should be but life and reality take their own spin? It’s what happened to me this winter when I bought my first bag of einkorn wheat berries. I admit, I had some expectations about einkorn. I thought einkorn should at least have…

The thing I like the most in sourdough baking is that every bread I make is different. Each bread holds its own story and each also reflects the energy I put in it. This energy can be seen through the decisiveness of the score, the stability of dough’s shape and its power to rise fully …

The snow on the roof window has finally melted and it was time to dip my hands into the dough again. I didn’t have to think for too long what my next challenge would be – sourdough doughnuts.  There was a carnival this weekend in Slovenia and although I didn’t get dressed in any mask…

Stale bread is something quite rare in my kitchen. I usually bake one sourdough loaf once per week and eat it in the next three or four days (OK, sometimes in three hours). After four days your sourdough bread has probably lost most of its crunchiness but there is solution for that – make croutons…

I’ve  just realized the other day that I’ve baked my second rye sourdough bread so far. I was quite surprised by this fact, since I use rye flour for my sourdough starter all the time and I really like rye flour but I haven’t really used it in the dough. Rye flour has low gluten…

I like basics. Or better to say, I like going back to basics. It is like going back home, very grounding. For me, one of the most inspiring ‘going back to basics’ rituals is making basic , simple and nutritious foods, like sourdough bread and other fermented foods – especially vegetables and yogurt. I’ve made…

Every year we prepare a barrel of fermented vegetables. This year we mixed red cabbage and carrots and spiced it with cumin seeds. Mostly, we prepare the fermented cabbage as a salad, but yesterday it was just the perfect time to use it in a soup. A soup that is extremely warming and fast to…

There is something special about the whole grain flour. About the bran in it. It seems the entire grain’s story sneaks to the light, if there is just a pair of ears to hear it. The story about the sunbathing, bending in the wind, resistance, and growth. About ups and downs. About the time needed…

I was really looking forward to this year’s winter solstice which for me is a real new beginning, a real start of the new year. You could sense the natural calmness and the strength at the same time that day, something that I goal for in 2015. And days… they are finally starting to get…
