What happens when you combine sourdough bread with a croissant? I’m attempting a croissant-inspired sourdough loaf, and I’m hoping for all that buttery, flaky goodness without actually making croissants. Let’s see if this experiment is worth the effort!

The chili cheese dog sourdough is finally going into the oven! I want melty cheese, plenty of chili dog flavor, and a crust that’s nice and crispy. But the real test is cutting this thing open. Did just make the ultimate savory sourdough loaf, or did take this experiment way too far?

Can we talk about these sourdough blisters?!

That golden, bubbly, crackly crust is one of my favorite things about baking sourdough. And if you’ve been wondering how to get those beautiful little blisters on your own loaves, I have a few tips!

Here’s what helps:

1. Cold proof your dough. An overnight stay in the refrigerator can encourage blister formation.
2. Spray your dough with water. A light mist right before baking helps keep the surface moist and can encourage those beautiful bubbles.
3. Don’t skip the steam. Baking in a covered Dutch oven traps moisture and delays crust formation, giving your dough time to expand.
4. Bake straight from the refrigerator. No need to let your dough warm up before scoring and baking!

Remember, those blisters aren’t required for a delicious loaf, but they sure are pretty!

Have you been able to get blisters on your sourdough?

Just a reminder that you can make a Blue Moon sourdough loaf!

If you love Blue Moon b**r with an orange slice, imagine turning those flavors into a loaf of sourdough bread. The b**r replaces the water, and a little fresh orange zest brings out those citrus notes.

Blue Moon sourdough recipe

* 500g bread flour
* 150g active sourdough starter
* 325g Blue Moon Belgian White b**r
* 12g salt
* Zest of 1 orange
* 15-20g honey (optional)

Instructions:

1. Open your b**r and let it sit until most of the carbonation disappears.
2. Mix all ingredients until a shaggy dough forms.
3. Rest for 30 minutes.
4. Complete 3 to 4 sets of stretch and folds, 30 minutes apart.
5. Allow the dough to bulk ferment until it’s airy, jiggly, and has risen approximately 50%.
6. Shape and refrigerate overnight.
7. Preheat your Dutch oven to 450°F.
8. Bake covered for 25 minutes, then uncovered for 20 minutes.

You’ll end up with A crusty sourdough loaf with subtle wheat b**r flavor, citrus notes, and just a touch of sweetness.

Would you try b**r in your sourdough?

I’m turning a chili cheese dog into a sourdough loaf! We’re talking hot dogs, chili, and plenty of cheese packed into homemade sourdough bread. This might be one of my most ridiculous bread experiments yet, but I have a feeling it could actually be delicious. Let’s get this dough started!
