Today I made Savory Sourdough Buns. They are perfect for a snack. Chiara often takes them to school from the bakery, so I decided to make them at home. And let me tell you, they are much tastier!!! If you don’t have sourdough, don’t worry, 5 g of fresh yeast or 2 g of dry yeast will do. I love focaccia, here are some more ideas to make it.
