This is the first bread made from leaven starter ( 6 days old ) using white flour and without using commercial yeast !! Fantastic. Proof that it is possible .
Baked in very hot oven 250C for 15 minutes , brushed with olive oil.
It is YUMMY !
I'm not sure what experts would say about texture and crust etc, but it really tastes good and is not heavy or yeasty .

It's day five no six of leaven - leaven , as you might know from previous posts is the rising agent I'm making to use instead of yeast to make bread the old - fashioned way , before yeast became commercially available in shops.
I've taken a bit of the stuff and made a little bit of dough , which is now rising. RISING , I tell you !
*Proud*
I don't think it is my imagination , either.
We shall see, soon enough.
Patience .

Started this leaven experiment on 21st August . The stars indicate the refreshments.
Day 6 , nice and frothy
Had to try a bit to see if it works and it does seem to be working !
The indentation is where I prodded it with my finger .
