Sourdough Bread

This proven recipe from Chef Shellie Froidevaux takes the guesswork out of baking a delicious sourdough loaf. Using the Panasonic SD-YR2550 or SD-R2530 Automatic Bread Maker to create the starter, knead and bake the final loaf, ensures the consistency required to guarantee a perfect loaf every time!
