关于作者
My name is Eliza Hearthstone, and cooking is the heart of my life and my home. As a child, I learned the value of simplicity and authenticity, watching my grandmother bake bread each week with patience and care. Over the years, that memory has shaped my way of living: cooking mindfully, respecting every ingredient, and always seeking to reduce waste. This philosophy led me to fall in love with sourdough and discover how even the discard can be transformed into something delicious and nourishing.
Since becoming a mother, my quest for a more sustainable and healthy kitchen has become a true mission. I have two young children, and like any parent, I know how hard it can be to find time to prepare healthy meals without compromising on taste and quality. That’s why I’ve studied and created recipes using sourdough discard—recipes that anyone can follow, even on the busiest days. Each time I make one of these dishes, I feel like I’m adding value to every single ingredient, doing something positive for my family and for the environment.
In my book, I offer more than just recipes; I guide you on a practical and enjoyable journey toward a more mindful kitchen. I share not only what I’ve learned, but also the solutions that have helped me overcome challenges and create a balance between time, flavor, and sustainability. I hope these pages inspire you to try new ways of cooking and to discover that, even with a simple sourdough discard, we can create something extraordinary for ourselves and for those we love.
