Winter

Winter is one of my favorite times of the year. Cold weather means having your oven on inside serves double-duty: baking bread and warming the house. I crave dark and crusty loaves of bread that go well with stew and soups at this time of the year. Check out the following recipes, which are perfect for this time of year:

• Sprouted buckwheat sourdough
• Sour cherry and toasted pecan sourdough
• Einkorn miche (an amazingly large loaf that’s just incredible for the holidays)
