Hello and welcome 🤍
My name is Alina, I’m Ukrainian 🇺🇦🌾 Based in Poland 🇵🇱 EU🇪🇺
Bread - and baking as a whole - is my quiet love, something I carry in my hands and my heart.
Through flour, water, and sourdough starter I share this love with the world 🤍

If you’re drawn to slow cooking, warm kitchens, and the beauty of simple things, I invite you into my little world -
a place of recipes, observations, and knowledge shaped by patience and care 🥖🥐🍞

A few things about me:

👩🏼‍🍳 I find joy in cooking
🌲Nature is my way of resting and breathing
🐈🐈‍⬛ Mom of two curious cats
🍽️ I’m endlessly inspired by beautiful tableware
💐 Flowers — a love passed down to me by my mother 🥹

This channel is a space to learn, to bake, to share.
Let’s be kind and welcoming to one another, because even small warmth can make the world softer 🌍🌾🤍

Today’s bake 🥰 Ciabatta is my favorite bread — I love it for its crispy crust and soft crumb 🤍 Here are two different ciabattas: one with sourdough and the other with just a tiny bit of yeast (0.3 g). What’s your favorite bread?

Fresh from the oven 🤍
Today I tried baking bread on a baking steel for the first time, and it was amazing! While there's still room for improvement, I'm really happy with my first result!🥰

And what is your favorite way to bake bread?

Today is a Fat Thursday, known as “Tłusty Czwartek” in Poland, is a day dedicated to indulging in delicious, calorie-packed treats before the start of Lent. It’s all about enjoying pączki — fluffy, jam-filled doughnuts — and other baked goods without the guilt. This beloved Polish tradition turns bakeries into bustling hubs as people line up to get their share of these sweet treats, celebrating the last feast before the season of fasting. Living in Poland, I’ve also grown to love this tradition, so I’m sharing with you a recipe for some seriously delicious doughnuts that you can make with sourdough or yeast. Mine are sourdough, and I have to say, they’re super yummy!
Donuts for everyone!!!!!!🍩🍩🍩🍩🍩🍩

You can find the recipe in the recently added video shorts, there is a sourdough and yeast method! I hope it will be useful to you☺️🫶🏻
