Baking is one of my love languages and when the sun shows herself, I venture out to share fresh baked goods with neighbors and friends. Lately, these herbal butter candles have been accompanying my still-warm sourdough boules and have been so well-received that I’ve chosen to share my recipe and tutorial so they might accompany your homemade baked goods too.
In March 2020, our state shut down. Our schools closed, my photography business screeched to a halt and my husband began working full-time at home. There are a lot of mixed emotions that came with this shutdown. But we were grateful for our new home and land to stretch out. In fact, I couldn’t imagine a better place to call home during these times. As a way of channeling my anxiety and worry into something positive, I did what many of us did and jumped on the sourdough train!
