Now you’ve entered this world we can talk about sourdough cookbooks too ha! The one I learned how to bake with and baked with for yearrrrs is Josey Baker Bread who has the Mill in SF. This one might be the easiest book to learn sourdough from on the market. And it’s fun! My newest favorite is The Long Loaf! A little book with some poems and musings as well as very instructional bread info!
!!! Thank you. Checking out all of these Recs. It occurred to me that I was writing this prematurely, as I’ve done zero reading on the subject. Excited to learn more.

I love that you name your sourdough culture! I've been making sourdough bread since 2019, when my mother-in-law died. Before her death, she made me promise to track down her cultures and keep them going. Now my father-in-law is living with us, and he has a slice of sourdough made from cultures cultivated by his deceased wife. It s a good way for him to remember her.
There's a pretty good book out there : "Sourdough: or, Lois and Her Adventures in the Underground Market: A Novel", by Robin Sloan. The sourdough in the book is not only alive, but sentient!

I love this. It’s so cool when starters pass down to younger generations. Excited to look up this book
Steeeellllllllaaaaaaaaaaa 😂 Also great cookbooks to check out (perhaps literally, from the library), New World Sourdough by Artisan Bryan (make sure to check clarifications here as it was published with some mistakes https://www.artisanbryan.com/recipes/2020/06/24/new-world-sourdough-clarifications-and-faq?format=amp) and also Maurizio Leo, The Perfect Loaf.
Oh amazing very excited to check these out
