🎧 Episode 114 – The Sourdough Comeback: Why It’s Worth Your TimeIn this episode, I’m kicking off a brand new sourdough series — croaky voice and all! After a rough run with the flu (and a lovely little bonus round of pleurisy), I’m easing back into the swing of things by diving deep into why sourdough is a perfect fit for the homesteader’s kitchen.You’ll hear about:The real history of sourdough (we’re talking ancient Egypt to gold rush miners)Why proper sourdough bread might not upset your gut like store-bought bread doesHow sourdough connects you to your food, your family, and your farmThe magic of fermentation explained in a way even teenagers can get aroundAnd yes — how I somehow manage to keep my sourdough starter alive (his name’s Harry)If you’re gluten sensitive, curious about ditching commercial yeast, or just want to make bread that costs 50 cents a loaf, this one’s for you.Oh — and we’re on baby watch with Molly the cow. Don’t miss the update at the end!🎁 Live near Canberra? I’m giving away starter from Harry (my 2-year-old mother). Send me a DM @MojoHomestead if you want a piece of the magic.👇 Drop your “N” name ideas (or other letters) for Molly’s calf in the comments or message me!
