@bakerbettie: Dried yeast can off often be villainized in the sourdough community, but I actually think it can work extremely well with wild yeast to make amazing bread. Hybrid doughs definitely have their place, and I don’t think a little commercial yeast automatically cancels out the benefit of adding a sourdough culture to your dough.

I think sourdough is overhyped. It’s just yeast - wild or cultivated.

Yes I agree! I like to put store yeast in my sourdough bagels because I like the flavor it adds and it always helps for my bagels to ‘float’ when boiling.

Way back when I was learning how to make sourdough, and I’d gotten so frustrated with gluey, dense loaves, I decided one day to “cheat” and threw in a small amount of dry yeast, which allowed me to practice shaping a dough that I as more reliable, which then led me to eventually not need the dry yeast (unless I wanted to). It helped build my confidence in a process that had been way, WAY over complicated by so many “pros,” to the point where I stopped overthinking, I stopped working on my dough like I was punching a timeclock for my job, and really, REALLY started to enjoy making sourdough. And I learned that, just like baking the non-sourdough loaves I’ve made my whole life, it doesn’t need to be that serious. “Purity” is for unimaginative people.

I don’t want to create & maintain a starter, is there a way to have sour dough without maintaining a starter?
