Sourdough ideas
Now that you have a warm stack of sourdough, the possibilities for enjoyment are endless. Beyond classic favorites like crafting mini pizzas for a fun DIY pizza night or for use as soft tacos, these versatile loaves are ready for any culinary challenge. They're also my favorite as an appetizer, spread with hummus and topped with olives, diced red onion cucumber, and feta cheese, making a nice start to any meal.
But why stop here? Here are six unique ways to up your sourdough game:
-
Morning Delight: Turn your flatbread into a breakfast masterpiece by topping it with a soft-boiled egg, a sprinkling of crumbled feta and some hollandaise sauce. A few arugula leaves add a touch of pepper to this luxurious open-faced sandwich.
-
Sweet treats: For a sweet change, spread Nutella or peanut butter on your bread, add sliced bananas and a handful of chopped nuts for a quick and delicious pizza treat. A final drizzle of caramel sauce seals the deal on this decadent delight.
-
Cheese Charmer: Cut your sourdough into bite-sized pieces and fry lightly. Serve alongside a variety of cheeses, toppings and fruit for an elegant addition to your cheese board that's sure to impress your guests.
-
Delicious galette: Use flat bread as a base for a rustic galette. Top with caramelized onions, roasted vegetables and goat cheese before they are baked to perfection. It's a simple yet sophisticated dish that's perfect for a cozy dinner.
-
Salad with grilled bread: Grill your bread until lightly charred, then top with a fresh salad of mixed greens, cherry tomatoes, olives and a light vinaigrette. It's a refreshing and light meal that's ideal for those warm days.
-
Finish and roll: Spread a layer of herbed cream cheese on your bread, add slices of smoked salmon, capers and thinly sliced red onion. Roll tightly, slice, and you have elegant wheeled appetizers that are as beautiful as they are delicious.
These sourdoughs are truly a blank canvas, ready to be transformed by your kitchen creativity and the bounty of your garden. Whether you're in the mood for something savory or sweet, simple or sophisticated, there's a dessert creation waiting to be discovered. So go ahead, let your imagination run wild and see where these versatile loaves can take you in your culinary explorations.
