    Fresh and Bright Sourdough For Summer

    Fresh and Bright Sourdough For Summer

    A FREE 6-day email series to help you bake lighter, brighter, more seasonal sourdough when plain loaves feel a bit too cosy.

    When summer arrives, you don't always want a hearty rye loaf or a plain sourdough boule.

    There is absolutely a time and place for those. Usually October. Possibly with soup. Maybe while wearing thick socks.

    But when the days are warmer, you want your sourdough to feel different.

    Fresher.
    Brighter.
    A little zingier.

    More suited to garden tables, BBQs, easy lunches, summer fruit, picnic food and using up whatever seasonal produce is currently taking over the kitchen.

    That's exactly what this FREE email series is here to help with.

    A poster for summer sourdough email series with lemons and sourdough starter drawings.

    Sign up below and I'll send you 6 short emails packed with summer-friendly sourdough inspiration, including ideas for both active sourdough starter and sourdough discard.

    Just a simple, seasonal guide to help you use your starter in a fresher, more summery way.


    What You'll Get

    Over 6 days, I'll send you a quick-start guide to summer sourdough baking.

    Each email is short, helpful and easy to read, because I know you probably have bread fermenting, dinner to think about, and at least one tab open that you forgot about three days ago.

    You'll get:

    • Fresh ideas for using your sourdough starter in summer
    • Recipes that feel lighter, brighter and more seasonal
    • A mix of active starter bakes and sourdough discard recipes
    • Sweet and savoury ideas for warm-weather baking
    • Simple inspiration for BBQs, lunches, desserts, picnics and seasonal produce

    Who This Is For

    This free Summer Sourdough series is perfect if:

    • You already bake sourdough but want more seasonal ideas
    • You love flavoured sourdough and want to try fresher combinations
    • Your starter is active, but your inspiration is not
    • You want both active starter and discard recipes in one place
    • You are looking for sourdough bakes that suit warmer weather
    • You are mildly bored of plain loaves but not ready to admit it publicly

    If you've ever looked at your starter in July and thought, "Lovely, but what now?" this is for you.

    And honestly, once you start thinking of sourdough seasonally, it becomes much easier to get excited about baking again.

    Instead of asking, "What sourdough recipe should I make?"

    You start asking, "What would taste good right now?"

    Much better question.

    Pop your details below and I'll send the first email straight to your inbox.

    You'll get 6 short emails with fresh, bright sourdough ideas to help you bake with the season, use your starter more creatively, and find your next summer favourite.

    Hi, I am Ieva – the cook and baker in our North Wales home. I share my life with my husband Seb, who doubles as my number-one taste tester, our golden retriever Sawyer, who’s always on crumb patrol and multiple sourdough starters. My days revolve around food—whether I’m experimenting with new recipes, tending to my veggie garden, or sneaking bites of “taste tests” (quality control, of course). Cooking isn’t just a passion; it’s my way of keeping Seb from reaching ‘hangry’ levels! Somebody HAS to feed Seb…
