What’s you plan for the Super Bowl? Watching at home-with friends or Not watching it – well what ever your plans mt Saturday recipe will get you ready ! Inspired by the game :

“The sour flavors come from lactic and acetic acids produced by inevitable environmental bacteria, which are working on the flour’s sugars along with the yeast. … And there you have it: San Francisco’s sourdough bread is good because San Francisco’s bacteria is particularly tasty.
