Great shot! I think the RR Farmer's Market opens in April and runs through July. Luckily most of the same vendors will be in Georgetown Tuesdays and Thursdays. I love it there and next year I'm determined to remember to start visiting as soon as they open in the spring! <br /> ...t<br />see below for link to market addresses and times in georgetown and RR:<br />http://www.gtfma.com/Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15417436.post-58225406613669354582009-07-19T09:56:30.938-05:002009-07-19T09:56:30.938-05:00We had a lot of home made bread that year!

My mom's bread was always crumbly, and I thought that was the natural state of home made bread, until I attempted a batch while extremely pissed off at SSS. That bread turned out to be the best I had ever made, and the only difference was the length and violence of the kneading. I made a note to self: When angry, bake bread.Ronnihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02062796442588373271noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15417436.post-26813689208398327962009-07-19T09:48:34.283-05:002009-07-19T09:48:34.283-05:00Melissa, the raw flour is put on to make a crusty ...Melissa, the raw flour is put on to make a crusty crust and to keep it from sticking. They put it on the clay baking stones. I use corn meal myself, but the flour does give it a nice dusted look. You can brush much of it off. <br /><br />The sourdough flavor comes from a little fermentation in the dough before you bake it. If you bake it before fermentation, it's mild and sweet with no "tang" in it. You can bake sweet loaves and then let dough ferment for sourdough.<br /><br />I got a recipe for easy no-knead bread dough that you stir up, let rise a little, and refrigerate until you're ready to make baguettes and loaves as needed. I had great fun making dozens of loaves just to get the recipe memorized. (Except now I've forgotten it.)Driverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14483403354004651524noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15417436.post-59223581283594463112009-07-19T09:19:26.686-05:002009-07-19T09:19:26.686-05:00Oh...and thanks for the compliment on the picture!...Oh...and thanks for the compliment on the picture!Ronnihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02062796442588373271noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15417436.post-66767883712524249172009-07-19T09:18:55.048-05:002009-07-19T09:18:55.048-05:00Lisa F, next Saturday is the last one here in Roun...Lisa F, next Saturday is the last one here in Round rock, for the year, but they are at Sun City on Thursdays, I think, and San Gabriel Park in Georgetown on Fridays through August. For some reason, they only do it in Round Rock in June and July.
