Sourdough Tools

Sourdough is written in grams and measured in patience. These are the pieces that make the difference between a loaf that works and one that doesn't.

A digital kitchen scale, because a cup of flour varies by 30g depending on how you scoop it. Carbon steel loaf pans for tin loaves. Breathable cotton bowl covers so dough proves without sitting in its own condensation. Silicone baking mats for the shaping stage, long oven mitts for lifting a screaming-hot dutch oven, and a bread slicer with an adjustable dial so the loaf you waited two days for doesn't get hacked to pieces.

About the Author

Hi! I'm Mel, the driving force behind The Homestead Fam, a platform dedicated to growing, preserving, and cooking REAL FOOD.

In 2024, I released my self-published recipe book, Back to the Basics, which encourages readers to embrace a more self-sufficient lifestyle.

In 2025, I published, Cook Like a Homesteader, an all-in-one homestead handbook filled with insider tips on making your own breads, preserves, and ferments without artificial ingredients.

My expertise has earned me features on various websites and in multiple magazine publications. Through my courses, guides, books, and online community, I aim to inspire others to preserve homemade traditions in their own kitchens.
