A little bit of everything going on in my kitchen today!

I’ve got black beans and cranberry beans soaking, oat groats and sorghum fermenting, kombucha and beet kvass brewing, and a gluten-free brown rice sourdough starter going!

I’ve really been enjoying getting back to some of the old-fashioned ways of preparing food. Soaking, sprouting, fermenting… things people used to do regularly before everything became about convenience.

There’s actually a lot of science behind these traditional methods! They can make foods easier to digest, help our bodies absorb more nutrients, and in some cases introduce beneficial bacteria that support gut health.

I’m always learning and experimenting, and that’s half the fun! Some things turn out better than others, LOL!

This is the direction I’m taking Sprout Bake — sharing more about whole grains, sourdough, fermentation, and simple ways to make the food we eat a little healthier.

Anyone else have jars bubbling away on their kitchen counter? Or am I the only one? 😂

🍞 Good bread, great company! 💛

Sourdough is even more fun when you learn it with someone you love! Grab a friend, your sister, or a fellow bread lover and enjoy an evening of hands-on baking, delicious samples, and new skills you can take home.

🌾 No need to be an expert, just come ready to learn!

There are still a few spots left in Freedom Kitchen's canning class tonight!

I grew up canning all kinds of things with my family—tomatoes, beef stew, pears, and so much more.

Over the years, I’ve gotten away from canning, but I’ve been wanting to get back into it. So I’ll be there tonight for a little refresher! I’m excited to brush up on my skills and start making it part of my life again.

If you’ve ever wanted to learn how to can, come join us tonight!

Freedom Kitchen is hosting a canning class to cover both pressure canning and water bath canning.

Your next loaf could be homemade. 🍞✨
There’s something special about pulling a warm sourdough loaf from the oven and knowing you made it.
That first loaf is more than just bread, it’s the confidence that comes from learning a new skill and knowing you can do it again in your own kitchen. 🤎
My Sourdough Bread Classes are designed to give you that hands-on experience, while keeping the process simple and approachable.
Come learn the process, bake with me, enjoy some sourdough samples, and start your own sourdough journey. 🌾
