Sourdough Sandwich Bread That Came Out Perfectly Fluffy and Golden

After weeks of feeding my starter and experimenting with textures, I finally nailed it—sourdough sandwich bread that’s soft, airy, and slices like a dream. Light on the inside, golden on top, and with just the right tang… this loaf was everything I hoped for (and more).

The key? A slow proof, the right hydration balance, and a touch of patience. I used milk and butter to enrich the dough, creating that pillowy crumb ideal for toast, grilled cheese, and everything in between.

Why This Loaf Was a Winner

Perfect rise with no gaps
tender, sliceable crumb—great for sandwiches
No commercial yeast, just wild sourdough starter
Mild tang—kid-friendly and toast-approved
