This is a take on Walnut Bread but using Pecan and Hazelnuts.

My wife is the only one who likes sourdough in our household. But at 2 slices of bread a week it isn't worth keeping a starter, I have been thinking of making a fake sourdough using lactic acid in the mix and making a small loaf I will have to experiment with hitting the right amount to add to the bread. I do add vinegar to all my bread for pH to help the yeast so I think the lactic acid will do the trick and give it that sour tang. Does anyone have a recipe using lactic acid?

I’ve heard there is a ‘cheat’ method where you mix some starter into a dough. Maybe you could have a starter ticking away in the fridge and dip into that. A kind of compromise.

Vinegar or pickle juice. Lovely.
