September is National Preparedness Month, and with it being an election year, preparedness seems to be all the rage! However, I am not into all of that doomsday stuff. What about when your kid gets a boo-boo at the park? Are you prepared for that? In this episode, I share the first place I started prepping and what I have on hand for everyday issues.

    • @thehomesteadchallenge
      @thehomesteadchallenge 2 года назад

      I'm no expert, but you can either bake it right away OR put it in the fridge. Putting it in the fridge allows it to ferment a lot longer and slower which adds a lot to the taste. It also helps bread hold its shape better and tends to allow you to get the nice bubbles/holes inside
