Baking A Sourdough Bread - 5 Reasons To Learn The Craft

Sourdough bread has been a staple food for thousands of years, and for good reason. Not only is it delicious, with its tangy flavour and chewy texture, but it is also more nutritious than conventional bread. Sourdough bread is made with a natural fermentation process, which means that it contains beneficial bacteria and yeasts that help to break down the gluten and make the bread easier to digest. But making sourdough bread is not just about enjoying delicious and healthy food - it is also a craft that requires skill, patience, and dedication. Let us explore the appealing reasons behind joining bread making classes in Singapore: 

REASON #1: SATISFYING

First and foremost, making sourdough bread is a satisfying and enjoyable process. There is something deeply satisfying about mixing a few simple ingredients - flour, water, salt, and a sourdough starter - and transforming them into a beautiful and delicious loaf of bread. The process of making sourdough bread is slow and deliberate, with plenty of opportunities for experimentation and creativity. As you learn more about the process, you can experiment with different flours, hydration levels, fermentation times, and baking techniques, to create a loaf of bread that is truly unique to you.

REASON #2: PRACTICALITY

In addition to the enjoyment of the baking process itself, there are also practical benefits to learning the craft of making sourdough bread by joining baking courses for beginners. For one thing, making your bread is much cheaper than buying it from a store. With just a few basic ingredients, you can make enough bread to last you for several days or even a week. Plus, when you make your bread, you can be sure of what is going into it - no preservatives, additives, or other artificial ingredients that you might find in store-bought bread.

REASON #3: NUTRITION

Another benefit of making sourdough bread is that it is more nutritious than conventional bread. The natural fermentation process that occurs when you make sourdough bread helps to break down the gluten, making it easier to digest. It also increases the bioavailability of important nutrients like zinc, magnesium, and iron. Plus, because sourdough bread is made with a natural sourdough starter rather than commercial yeast, it has a lower glycemic index and can be better for blood sugar control.

REASON #4: COMMUNITY

Making sourdough bread in Singapore can also be a way to connect with others and build a sense of community. Sourdough bread has become increasingly popular in recent years, and there are many online communities and local groups dedicated to the craft of sourdough bread making. By joining one of these groups or attending a workshop, you can connect with other like-minded individuals, share tips and advice, and even trade your homemade bread for other goods or services.

REASON #5: ENVIRONMENT

Finally, learning the craft of making sourdough bread can be a way to connect with nature and the environment. Sourdough bread is made with just a few simple ingredients - flour, water, salt, and a sourdough starter - and requires minimal processing or packaging. By making your bread, you can reduce your carbon footprint and contribute to a more sustainable food system. Plus, the process of making sourdough bread can help you to appreciate the beauty and complexity of the natural world, as you learn about the fermentation process and the role that bacteria and yeasts play in creating delicious and nutritious bread.

There is a good reason sourdough bread is popular in Singapore, and visit the website of Bespoke Bread to learn more about their classes and other programmes for excited bakers.

2024 jp trip report (food edition)

i had originally planned to visit tokyo in 2020, but covid happened and...finally this year i managed to go on the trip! ;w; i rarely go overseas but it was really fun just walking around and stumbling upon things. i want to save up for the next japan trip already...

i'm making the post mostly to remember where i've been! i'm splitting up the food and the sights because of tumblr's image limit per post 🙄 will be posting the food here!

(sights edition here)

Day 1 (13/5/2024)

we arrived at night so pretty much everything was closed, but before i went to bed i had some cold haikara udon...i love cold udon so much and wish there was a way to get it cheap back home 😭 i also added some chilli oil with garlic, but it wasn't spicy..only the first day in and i miss singapore's spicy food 😂

Nakau なか卯 (chain store, multiple outlets)

Day 2 (14/5/2024)

we spent day 2 at ikebukuro and nakano...mostly browsing weeb shit 😭

started the day with some breakfast at komeda's coffee, they have a morning set and auugfhjhghh the bread used in japan cafes' toast is always so soft and fluffy..obsessed

Komeda's Coffee コメダ珈琲店 (chain store, multiple outlets)

at nakano broadway, the basement had some supermarkets/grocery stores and one of them sold sashimi. i didn't end up buying from here, but...LOOK at this sashimi, for 580jpy?? omg 😭😭😭 i want

we had lunch at a hayashi rice place near nakano broadway! i had curry omurice myself while my friend got the hayashi omurice. the omelette was sooo good...society if i could cook an egg like this on my own

Hayashi-ya Nakano-so ハヤシ屋中野荘 164-0001 Tokyo, Nakano City, Nakano, 5 Chome-55-15

and for dinner we had monjayaki at ikebukuro..we've never tried like, actually cooking the monjayaki before? so it was a fun experience!

Monjaya Mon もんじゃや紋 170-0013 Tokyo, Toshima City, Higashiikebukuro, 1 Chome−12−10 ヤンズビル 3F

Day 3 (15/5/2024)

on my morning walk i decided to try a canned drink from a vending machine. satsuma-imo milk! so in singapore, there was recently a 'nutri-grade' rating introduced mandatory for all drinks to indicate the sugar level in the drink. i didn't think i would miss it in japan LOL i'm sorry but drinking this drink was like drinking sugar syrup T_TT i think as i got older my sugar tolerance has drastically dropped..

we started at akihabara, and had brunch at niku no mansei (yes the well-known building with like 10 floors of meat before it closed, i think it split into a couple of places?) we went to the akiba place branch for their hemborger hamburg steak...how am i supposed to go back to eating it in singapore after this?? 🫠 IT'S SO GOOD (i'm also laughing at the token broccoli though)

Niku no Mansei Akiba Place 肉の万世 アキバプレイス店 101-0021 Tokyo, Chiyoda City, Sotokanda, 3 Chome−15−1, Akiba Place, 3F

after akiba we went to asakusa, and since it's asakusa we had to have some tendon..we just went into one of the tendon places we spotted but i didn't realise it was akimitsu!? we have akimitsu in singapore too 😂 but loved the tempura eel!

Akimitsu 秋光 111-0032 Tokyo, Taito City, Asakusa, 1 Chome-29-11

Day 4 (16/5/2024)

i got some plum onigiri from famima for breakfast on my morning walk. oughgkhghjh i already miss conbini onigiri so much...affordable yet tasty! i really love onigiri, but our convenience store onigiri in singapore is a bit overpriced, which wouldn't be so bad if the onigiri itself wasn't also terrible with cold hard rice :')

we started the day at tsukiji outer market. SEAFOOD..... we finally got some sashimi today, my beloved,,, we had engawa truffle salt sushi and also a sashimi bowl of the day. and also it was my first time trying shiokara! apparently it's squid in a kind of sauce made from fermented fish/sea animal innards. i'm not sure if it might be an acquired taste, but for a seafood lover like me it was so good 🥺 the lady serving us food was also really nice and we had a little chat even with our terrible spoken japanese lol.

Taneichi たねいち 104-0045 Tokyo, Chuo City, Tsukiji, 4 Chome-9-5

i also found shirako in the market! it was my first time eating it (i think it can be found in singapore? but not particularly common). other than the shiso leaf it was served plain though, while i like the taste i kinda wish i had rice or something to go with it.

also we got some matcha latte from the market before leaving! i got the 'less sweet' which was perfect, when a lot of times the least sweet (without being zero sugar) option from drink stores are too sweet for me..

Matcha Stand Maruni マッチャスタンドマルニ 104-0045 Tokyo, Chuo City, Tsukiji, 4 Chome−14−18

some ramen for dinner at ryogoku! admittedly i'm not a super into ramen person 😅 but butter in noodles is always such a nice combo!

Tadokoro Shoten 田所商店 (chain store, multiple outlets)

and some parfait for supper. look at their logo!! so cute 🥹🥹🥹

Mayonaka Farm (Ryogoku Yokozuna Yokocho outlet) 真夜中牧場 両国横綱横丁店 130-0026 Tokyo, Sumida City, Ryogoku, 3 Chome-22-8

Day 5 (17/5/2024)

started the day with some zaru soba. it was nice but cold soba was kind of a mistake because it was raining that morning and so COLD lol

Yudetaro ゆで太郎 (chain store, multiple outlets)

we started at shinjuku today and walked our way down to shibuya. with my friend's recommendation we tried blue bottle coffee? the latte was nice and even had this natural sweetness(?) to it despite not adding sugar.

Blue Bottle Coffee ブルーボトルコーヒー (chain store, multiple outlets)

and then we went to takeshita street. i think marion crepes is the most well-known one, but the queue..??? so we ended up going to another crepe store. it's still a treat and has a variety of flavours! i got the regular strawberry whipped cream.

Santa Monica Crepes サンタモニカクレープ 150-0001 Tokyo, Shibuya City, Jingumae, 1 Chome-16-16-8

late lunch at yomenya goemon! i had the tarako butter one and i really liked it...i think i could try buying some mentaiko from donki back home and trying it out myself..

Yomenya Goemon 洋麵屋 五右衛門 (chain store, multiple outlets)

Day 6 (18/5/2024)

conbini haul for the morning. i would like to shoutout to famima's pudding in particular; i feel a lot of store-bought pudding tend to be closer to the jelly-like consistency, but i prefer my pudding to be closer to the creamy? eggy? like consistency and famima's pudding is perfect for the price ;w;

we went to miura peninsula in kanagawa for the day using the misaki maguro ticket (it's so worth!! highly recommend if you want a day trip from tokyo). for breakfast we had some coffee and toast at coffee house poem. their signature blend (kaigan blend) in particular was really unique and nice..kinda regret not ordering that for myself 😂 love the rustic interior too!

Coffee House Poem (Miurakaigan outlet) ぽえむ三浦海岸駅前店 238-0101 Kanagawa, Miura, Minamishitauramachi, Kamimiyada-3130

nearby there's a souvenir shop selling mainly jams, and pickles (including daikon, one of miura's specialties). did you know that i hated eating radish until japanese daikon changed my life 🤣 i also got some persimmon jam to try since i'd never really heard of it! and also some honey+daikon candy.

Temiyage Iroiro Miura Store 手土産いろいろ 三浦ストア 238-0101 Kanagawa, Miura, Minamishitauramachi, Kamimiyada-3255

and finally we got SUSHI...i could cry the maguro here is so good 😭😭😭😭😭 the place is called 'kaitenzushi kaisen', but the sushi does not actually 'kaiten'/revolve, the chefs just serve it 😂 we used the maguro ticket on this so we got some maguro and some local catch!

Kaitenzushi Kaisen 廻転寿司 海鮮 238-0101 Kanagawa, Miura, Minamishitauramachi, Kamimiyada-3372-18

we then took the train to misakiguchi station, and the bus to misaki port. there's a market there called urari marche, which sells seafood and veggies mainly. we got some skewer hotate (scallop) and maguro karaage there! i was not a big fan of the maguro karaage though..i still think maguro is best as sashimi lol

Urari Marché うらりマルシェ 238-0243 Kanagawa, Miura, Misaki, 5 Chome-3-1

right next to the port was a cafe i used my ticket on, for some danish loaf with pistachio ice cream and a coffee drink. the ice cream goes so well with the fruity loaf!

3204 bread&gelato 238-0243 Kanagawa, Miura, Misaki, 3 Chome-12-10

Day 7 (19/5/2024)

went for a short walk at ueno park in the morning. there were some food stalls there! we tried some of the freshly roasted hojicha, and also some mitarashi dango. there's some skewered fish that looked good but i didn't try because i was scared of the bones 😅 and other kinda matsuri-like foods such as kakigori and yakisoba, a bit higher priced i guess because of the tourists there but i'm not a fan of yakisoba so 😆

also there was an asian food festival going on near shinobazu pond! i didn't try the food (it seemed largely SEAsian food, we can get cheaper thai, viet food etc in singapore anyway), but also for some reason there is a food truck for US food? and the representative food is 'american long potato' 😂 is that a thing in US? (ok but i know US is huge)

i met up with a friend for lunch at akiba and they recommended ootoya! a restaurant chain for teishoku. i got the recommended fried fish and veg in sweet vinegar sauce and 🥺 the taste mix is so good! i also wanted to randomly bring up something i'll miss about japan: pretty much every eatery, whether cafe or restaurant, serves free water, or even green tea! you rarely get free water in singapore eateries even though we have friggin drinkable tap water here 🙄 (except in japanese chains like saizeriya or sukiya..lol) you'll have to buy overpriced bottled mineral water or something even if you just want water to go with your meal.

Ootoya 大戸屋 (chain store, multiple outlets)

after some walking around akiba (i.e. combing weeb stores), we stopped for some thick fluffy toast and drink (mine was cinnamon toast and almond cafe latte) at vault coffee. true it was a sunday, but we were surprised that it was some random cafe hidden in third floor of what looked otherwise like a normal commercial building on the outside, and it was still soo crowded, we had to wait a little while to be seated!

VAULT COFFEE 101-0021 Tokyo, Chiyoda City, Sotokanda, 4 Chome−5−1 3F

and this marks the end of our week-long food journey in japan 😆 i had to save a lot of funds for my splurging on weeb and stationery stuff LOL, but i hope the next time i come i can focus more on sightseeing and food maybe! but for now it's back to capitalism to save up first 🏃

There's so much sexism going around today like, everywhere I have seen it has been like 'she should go to support her husband' 'she needs to support her husband' 'kate not going to singapore means she isn't a supportive wife' OH MY FUCKING GOD!! I'm so angry at all this.

Like if we go by this logic then, where's this energy everytime a shaping us event happens, why wasn't william at the early childhood centre launch? They both love and support each other and I'm sure she's been helping him out in the background just like he does for her projects. So this whole thing about she should go to support him line just isn't it.

Why is it necessary for her to go? Huh? Earthshot isn't even her event. It's amazing that she went twice. Would I have liked to see her go this time too? Yes. But I get it especially if this is a big thing for George and it seems like it is.

Now what is something I would change, is that I would also want them to do more bread & butter engagements, and more engagements in general across their varied interests. And to put in more content of the closed door meetings or background work they do.

What do you think about what CH said about the RB seat being decided before September who will get it between Daniel and Liam?

I know I’m not the most objective person when it comes to Daniel, but I still think that if the decision over that seat has to be made today, Daniel would still manage to edge Liam out. He has the whole package of experience, marketability and even if many won’t agree, pace.

Daniel’s gap to Yuki last year was around 0.187s and his gap this year is around 0.127s (and I think it swings in Daniel’s favour if you include sprint qualifying) while Liam’s gap to Yuki was around 0.58s.

I think Liam’s stint last year is viewed very favourably because of this whole perception that he knocked Max out of qualifying in Singapore, when red bull was simply struggling at that race. However, Liam’s never won an F2 feature race when others like Jack and Logan have done it. I think in part, this was the reason Helmut didn’t give him the seat in 2022 and Helmut sent him to Super Formula instead. Even if he came second in the championship there, I don’t think that still impressed them as much. And now with Christian apparently praising Hadjar’s sim work, it sort of points that Liam is not impressing enough in that respect as well (sim work is after all a junior driver’s bread and butter, as Jack has shown).

So yeah, if they think he really deserves to be in Formula One, he would have been in a seat already. But that’s not to say if Daniel doesn’t start performing more consistently, Liam would be a stronger candidate for that seat

Scientists from NTU Singapore have developed a sustainable and more effective technique for making lactic acid by using discarded jackfruit seeds. Lactic acid plays an indispensable part in the industrial production and preservation of nearly all the food we consume, being used in various stages of the manufacturing of food staples such as bread, yogurt, cheese, kimchi, sauerkraut, and pickles. In 2022, approximately 1.5 million metric tons of lactic acid were manufactured worldwide. Lactic acid is added to dairy products for a tangy taste, controls acidity in jams and canned fruits, and extends the shelf life of packaged meat products. In baking, lactic acid conditions dough for better texture and volume. Additionally, lactic acid helps in emulsification of dressings and sauces and maintains vibrant colors in fruits and vegetables. Developed by Professor William Chen, Director of NTU's Food Science and Technology (FST) program, the method is cheaper and more sustainable than existing industrial methods as it requires fewer chemicals and processes, produces negligible amounts of by-products, and reduces food waste by using unwanted jackfruit seeds. Current industrial methods to produce lactic acid are costly as they typically involve fermenting raw materials such as sugarcane, corn starch and beetroot sugar, which have become more expensive due to the increasing scarcity of farmland, natural disasters, and rising inflation.

Fun fact:

There are currently 8,045,311,447 people in the world and it's estimated that 1% of them is asexual, meaning there are 8,045,311 asexual people in the world. Do you know what this means? It means that if we come together, we can invade Greenland, Iceland, Fiji, Slovenia, Jamaica, Albania, Puerto Rico, Panama, Ireland, Costa Rica, New Zealand, Liberia, Norway, Finland, Slovakia, Denmark, Singapore, El Salvador, Libya, Serbia, Hong Kong, and other countries I didn't mention!?

(This is coming from an asexual if you couldn’t tell. Also, all hair garlic bread.)

new years traditions around the world

Humans like their superstitions. The world is so random and abstract and there is so much that we can't, no matter how hard we try, control. And yet, its human nature not to be content to let 'Fate' decide our - well - fate. Some of our oldest stories are about heroes doing exactly that, trying to avoid what life has set down for them. Often they don't succeed but it doesn't stop the next hero's story from trying.

And - every now and then, some hero, somewhere, does win.

What better time to try to set the record straight, determine the future and ward away disasters than as the clock turns over and gives us an entirely new year? So, today, let's talk about New Year's Eve superstitions and see just how many we're willing to do, not because we believe them but because, deep down, we figure why not?

Do you want to travel in the upcoming year? In Columbia, they walk, or run, around the block carrying empty suitcases to call it into the new year.

Hoping for a baby in the new year? In Greece, hang a bundle of onions over your front door. Not only will this up your chances of fertility, but onions encourage good luck too.

Want to make sure there are no evil spirits in your house? In Ireland they use their leftover Christmas bread to bang on the house walls to drive any lingering mischief out. In Puerto Rico, they dump a bucket of water out the window to wash evil spirits away. In Japan, Buddhist temples ring their bells 108 times before midnight, each toll driving away a specific vice or sin so that the new year can start clean. Fireworks can drive off evil spirits too. According to the historic Chinese, the loud sounds scare them off.

Want some predictions for the new year? In the Czech Republic, they cut apples in half. If the apple's core looks like a star than next year everyone will meet again, happy and healthy. If it's a cross, someone will soon be very ill. In Columbia, they place three potatoes under the bed, one peeled, on half peeled and the other left alone. At midnight, grab one. If its unpeeled, you will have financial woes. Still in its skin? A year of prosperity. And half and half is - well, half and half. In Ireland, hiding mistletoe under your pillow will let you dream of your future spouse.

Had a bad year you can't wait to see go? Open your doors and windows on new year's eve to let the old year out and the new year in (I suspect this is easier for people living in warmer climes). In Ecuador, they build paper effigies of the bad, usually politicians, and set it on fire! Bonus good luck if you can jump over that fire twelve times. In Japan, they clean their house to wash away the old year and have it fresh and ready for a brand new year.

Looking for a long, healthy life? In Japan, they eat soba, noodles that are as long as the life the consumers want to have.

Aiming for prosperity? In Turkey, they smash pomegranates on their doorstep. The more pieces and the bigger the mess, the better. In the Southern US, you need to get yourself a meal of Hoppin John. Round shapes resemble coins so in the Philippines you want to eat twelve round fruits at midnight. Don't count on the fruit alone though, in the Philippines its also good luck to wear polka dots the last day of the year.

Have a wish you want to come true? In Singapore, they float wishing spheres, giant floating balls people write their wishes on, in the Singapore River. In Russia they write the wish on a piece of paper, burn it and then drink the ashes down in a glass of champagne. In Brazil, jump over seven ocean waves - you get a wish for each one.

Do you just want general good luck? There's a lot of traditions for that. Eat fish - they only swim forward and so will carry you forward into the new year. In Denmark, get your dishes and go break them on your friends' and family's doorstep. The more broken pieces, the more the luck. In Spain, they eat twelve grapes as the clock strikes midnight for good luck but make sure you pay attention to what you're doing and finish by the end of the chimes or you get the opposite in the upcoming year. In Denmark, stand on a chair and 'leap' into the new year as the clock strikes midnight for good luck. Farmers should wish all their livestock a good new year first thing in the morning. Several countries hide a coin or an almond in the new years eve's dessert and whoever finds it will have good luck in the new year. In New York, they sell candy peppermint pigs that come with their own hammers. Smash the pig, eat the candy and get luck in the new year - and help burn off some holiday stress. In Armenia, the first batch of bread baked on the new year bakes in the luck for the rest of the year's cooking. In Turkey, as the clock strikes midnight, sprinkle salt on your doorstep for good luck. In Japan, waking up early to watch the first sunrise of the new year is supposed to bring good luck. In Romania, they toss a coin into a river on new year's eve.

And finally - don't forget to dress for the occasion! In Brazil, they wear white on new year's eve to bring in a year full of peace. You can still be racy though. Apparently the color of your underwear makes a difference.

White – peace and harmony

Silver – innovation

Blue – serenity and friendship

Green – good health and hope

Red – passion

Yellow/gold – money and happiness

Pink – romance and love

Purple – spiritual connection

Orange – creativity

Black – independence

So there you have it.

Happy New Year!

Sis messaged me saying she is coming home with some breads from Johan Paris. This Japanese bakery of French origins makes some of the nicest breads and buns in Singapore. Particularly, the Fluffy Cheese Bread (S$12.40 whole or S$6.20 for half loaf) which is filled with cubes of Cheddar, Mozzarella and Gouda. It is topped with red cheddar cheese and baked till the outside is golden-brown and crusty. How can such a savoury loaf not be yummy and delicious.

Also from the same bakery located in Isetan Scotts is this Spicy Cheese Bread (S$3.50). A French bun filled with cheese, bacon and sprinkled with black pepper. The bun is slightly chewier than the fluffy cheese bread with plenty of cheese and occasion encounters of bacon.

[mrmrswales]

my only commentary to the discourse is I need William and Kate to do more bread and butter royal engagements.. Core projects are great and all but showing up at the county farm to see sheep or cutting a ribbon for the opening of a new hospital wing is just as important

also prioritizing your kids is amazing but your kids are also not babies and you have a great support staff that helps.. so attending a night engagement or going on overseas visits is not the end of the world. Saying that I have absolutely no problem with Kate not going to Singapore with William.. it was going to happen eventually and if this is a pretty big deal for George, I completely get it

[formulaonedirection]

top 5 desserts hehe :)

Omg....as the sweet tooth girly of all time.....

1. Warm bread pudding with a vanilla custard???? Outsold every single time I'm so serious.

2. Gelato when you're just having a nice cheeky afternoon stroll? Omg top tier walking dessert like it's so crucial. My favourite gelato flavour is anything floral. Ispahan gelato IS life changing.

3. Chewie blondies specifically the smitten kitchen ones like hot out of the oven and topped with a peanut butter vegan ice cream. HELLO????

4. I don't know if we're counting pastries as dessert but a well made kouign-amann could save the world.

5. Pistachio tiramisu specifically the one from italian osteria in Singapore is like my treat of all time. Every time something big happens I'm like okay well we need to get pistachio tiramisu to celebrate bc this is A Moment worthy of it.

As a gift here's a picture of the strawberry and bergamot entremet I had for dinner today

ask for my top 5 anything
