I used to make sourdough years ago but the bread was always heavy - you could hardly lift it. In fact it would be better suited to building a wall than to put on a table. I gave up after a few goes of that.

A couple of weeks ago I had some sourdough bread made by my daughter in law and it was delicious. Now I plan to try making it again.

I've got one on the go at the moment, started it about Easter time and have made a few loaves off it at the weekends (not got time in the week) and it often settles out like that. I find that it benefits from a wizz round in the food processor every few weeks but a good beat with a fork works well too. Love the smell of it, 'tis fab.
