The explosive moments.
Some of the things that happen behind the screens at The Bakery at 1871 are so hilarious that we’ve thought about starting a bloopers reel. If we did, this would definitely be on it.
Most of the wonderful baked goods that come out of our bakery are naturally leavened with a sourdough starter. We’ve been caring for and feeding our starter for more years than I can count. She’s good and strong. So strong, in fact, that last night she exploded out of the jar and threw pieces of herself all the way up to our 10’ high ceilings.
Looks like we’ll be doing a little extra cleaning today.
No need to worry, we always have a back up starter. Baked goods next week will still be naturally leavened with all her strength.
