Not sure if your dough is ready? Try the poke test. Gently press one floured finger into the dough and watch how it responds. If it springs back quickly, it may need more time. If it slowly fills back in and leaves a slight indentation, it’s likely ready for the next step.

Our step-by-step baking guide teaches you techniques like this, while showing you photos and videos (without ads) that are personalized to your preferences. It's like a personalized recipe book and baking class all in one. Check it on our website, link in bio.

Sourdough, olive oil, and something savory to bring it all together.

Our Onion Provençal dipping mix is made with gourmet chive and toasted onion seasoning for a simple, French-inspired companion to your favorite loaf. Pair it with toasted sourdough or crackers, set it out with a little olive oil, and watch how quickly it becomes the thing everyone reaches for.

It’s an easy and convenient way to add a little more flavor to the table. Available as part of our seasoning trio, or individually, on our website and on Amazon. Search for "Maison Fare onion dip mix"

Scoring is one of the easiest ways to make a loaf feel like your own.

Keep it simple with one clean cut, or play around with a design that adds a little personality before it goes in the oven. A quick chill in the fridge can help firm up the dough, making it easier to score with more control.

Every loaf can look a little different, and that’s part of the fun.

A cozy place for your loaf to live.

Our beeswax bread bag keeps sourdough covered, without hiding it away in a cabinet. Leave it on the counter, tuck in the cut side, and come back when you’re ready for the next piece.

It’s more practical, more reusable, and definitely prettier than plastic wrap.

Find it on our website at https://shop.maisonfare.com/ or shop on Amazon.

A sliced loaf is an open invitation.

Set it out with butter, jam, cheese, or whatever you like best. Keep it simple, or make it your own with the flavors and pairings you love.

That’s the fun of homemade sourdough. Everyone has their own way of serving it, sharing it, and going back for one more slice.

One of the things we love about homemade bread is how versatile yet simple it can be. Serve it with dinner, bring it to a friend’s house, or set it out with our Onion Provençal dipping blend and olive oil so everyone can pull off a piece. It’s an easy way to make a fresh loaf feel like part of the meal, without overthinking it.

We love that sourdough baking can be personal.

Some people like to do every step by hand. Others use a machine. Some people love the feeling of handling the dough, stretching it, folding it, and learning what it needs. Others prefer to bake the bread quickly and keep things simple.

It’s all good. You get to choose.

But for us, this is one of our favorite steps: the windowpane. When the dough stretches thin without tearing, you can see a nice, strong gluten network starting to form. That’s when we start getting excited about taking a beautiful loaf out of the oven.

A loaf becomes part of the moment, whether it’s at home, at a party, or carried over to someone else’s table.

Thank you, for bringing Maison Fare along for the good bread and good company.

For Maison Fare staff, August is a time for one last vacation, but it’s also a time when things start getting busy for fall.

That’s one of the reasons we love sourdough. It can fit the mood of the moment. On busy days, keep it simple: slice it up, set it out, and let everyone build a quick meal with whatever is nearby. On vacation days, add something a little more fun, like herbs, seasoning, good butter, or your favorite toppings.

And then you get to share that with family and friends. That’s why we love baking.
