My first bread

I've made several breads - usually I don't use commercial yeast but fermented water made from leaves of black tea, organic honey and water. I'm not sure those breads I made also can be called as sourdough bread.

This was the first one I made. I made it with fermented water, organic whole wheat flour and salt. I wanted to make a crusty bread - but without oven, the result was more like a steam bread :(

This is fermented water made from leaves of black tea. I usually make starter with this water. The recipe is so simple - You need only small amount of black tea leaves, a spoon of honey or sugar, water, and patience. Put all ingredients together in a jar, and stir it several times a day. A few days later, you can see many bubbles on the surface and smell sourish.

This is my starter I usually use. I made it with 50 mL of fermented water and 50g of whole wheat flour. Mix fermented water and whole wheat flour together and put it in room temperature overnight. If the starter rise double in size then it's done.
Now I'm making real sourdough starter with barley flour and water. Today is the 4th day - I can check my starter is drawing its breath from small water drops formed all over my container :) While my starter is growing, I made homemade sugar free yogurt to make yogurt cream cheese using 60g of skimmed milk, 50mL of lactic-acid fermented milk, 400mL of warm water and a vacuum bottle.
