Different flours, different hydration levels, different fermentation times. My kitchen turned into a science lab, and my family learned to recognize the &#8220;starter smell&#8221; before their morning coffee.</p><p>By day three, I was sure I&#8217;d ruined everything.</p><p>The dough was wet and sticky, and my loaves looked like deflated balloons.</p><p><strong><a href="https://pages.bloomcooking.com/gf-sourdough-cookbook-sl-1?utm_source=substack&amp;utm_medium=email&amp;utm_campaign=7+days">Skip the trial and error: see the Gluten-Free Sourdough Masterclass &#8594;</a></strong></p><p>Here&#8217;s what I didn&#8217;t know yet: gluten-free flours soak up much more water than regular flour, so a good dough <em>looks</em> too wet. My instinct was to add more flour, and that&#8217;s exactly what makes a loaf dense and gummy.</p><p>So if your gluten-free bread has ever come out heavy, it probably wasn&#8217;t your baking skills. Nobody taught you how GF dough actually behaves.</p><p>By day five, something shifted.<br>The texture came alive.<br>The crust developed that golden crackle.<br>And the smell (tangy, nutty, just

preparing fruit, especially during the colder months, when warming spices make everything feel a little more special.</p><p>My <em><strong>Mulled Wine Poached Pears</strong></em> with Dark Chocolate Ganache &amp; Mascarpone Cream brings together everything I love about an elegant homemade dessert.</p><p>The pears turn beautifully tender as they soak up red wine, honey, orange, cinnamon, cardamom, and vanilla.</p><p>Then comes the best part: a generous drizzle of silky dark chocolate ganache, a spoonful of soft mascarpone cream, and toasted flaked almonds for a little crunch.</p><p>I love how every element works together, balancing fruity sweetness, rich chocolate, creamy textures, and warming spices.</p><p>Planning a Christmas dinner or a special gathering? Trust me, this is one dessert that will make everyone ask for another spoonful!</p><ul><li><p><strong>Prep Time: 20 minutes</strong></p><p></p></li></ul>

Her advice? <strong>It starts well before the loaf goes into the oven.</strong></p><p><strong>1. It&#8217;s all about the starter</strong></p><p>Most failed loaves come from a starter that wasn&#8217;t quite ready. A starter is a little wild, and it changes with your kitchen: warm or cold, humid or dry, summer or winter. So the trick is to watch it every day and only use it once it&#8217;s properly mature. Use it too early, and your bread comes out dense and heavy.</p><p>The good news? Once your starter is ready, the rest is surprisingly easy.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank"

It&#8217;s supposed to look too wet</strong></p><p>Gluten-free flours soak up much more water than regular flour, so the dough will look like it has too much liquid. Don&#8217;t panic, and don&#8217;t add more flour. It all comes together in the end.</p><p><strong>3. Knead less, not more</strong></p><p>Forget everything you know about regular bread. With gluten-free dough, the less you knead, the better. If it&#8217;s still a bit sticky, that&#8217;s actually a good sign.</p><p><strong>4. Bake it longer than you think</strong></p><p>Because of all that extra moisture, gluten-free sourdough needs more time in the oven. The crust might look very dark, almost overbaked. It isn&#8217;t. A cast iron pot helps a lot.</p><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank"

sometimes feels like it has its own calendar, it&#8217;s nice to have small things that make your life just a bit easier. When energy swings, cravings, or bloat show up, especially around PMS or perimenopause, the food we consume really can make a difference. Here&#8217;s where <em>fermented</em> foods really help me, and I hope they will help you too. </p><h2>Why it may help</h2><ul><li><p><strong>Gut support (microbiome):</strong> Naturally fermented foods can introduce or encourage beneficial bacteria. A more balanced gut is linked to better overall health and hormone signaling - useful during times when digestion feels off (PMS, perimenopause).</p></li><li><p><strong>Blood sugar steadiness:</strong> Long fermentation can lower the <em>effective</em> glycemic response versus quick regular breads, helping smooth <strong>energy dips and cravings</strong>- especially helpful when hormones make insulin sensitivity fluctuate (e.g., in PCOS or the luteal phase).</p></li><li><p><strong>Inflammation being down:</strong> Fermented foods have been associated with lower inflammatory markers in some research; less inflammation can make hormonal symptoms feel more manageable.</p></li><li><p><strong>Weight &amp; satiety support:</strong> More stable blood sugar + fiber (especially in whole-grain sourdough) can help you feel full longer - useful for appetite changes around your cycle or midlife.</p></li><li><p><strong>More access to key minerals women need.</strong><br>Fermentation breaks down phytic acid (&#8220;phytate&#8221;), which otherwise blocks minerals like <strong>iron</strong> and <strong>zinc</strong> - nutrients many women track. Sourdough processes consistently show improved mineral bioavailability. </p></li></ul><div class="captioned-image-container"><figure><a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" target="_blank"

-<strong> </strong><em><strong>slow, natural fermentation</strong></em>, can support pillars that matter for women across PMS, pregnancy/postpartum, perimenopause, and PCOS: <strong>gut health, steadier blood sugar, and calmer inflammation.</strong> The benefits depend on using <strong>genuinely long-fermented sourdough</strong> (live starter, no additives) and pairing it with an overall healthy routine.<br></p><h2>What to choose (and how to use it)</h2><ul><li><p><strong>Seek the real thing:</strong> Look for <strong>naturally fermented sourdough</strong> made with a live culture and <strong>no gums, conditioners, or additives</strong>.</p></li><li><p><strong>Watch portions, pair smartly:</strong> It&#8217;s still a carbohydrate. Keep portions sensible and pair with <strong>protein, healthy fats, and fiber</strong> (e.g., eggs + greens, salmon + salad) to further steady glucose.</p></li><li><p><strong>Lifestyle still leads:</strong> Best results come alongside <strong>sleep, stress care, movement, and colorful plants</strong> on your plate. Think &#8220;supportive staple,&#8221; not &#8220;quick fix.&#8221;</p></li></ul><p></p><p>Quick reality check: sourdough is not a hormone therapy. It&#8217;s a meal-structure helper - steadier glucose, better nutrient access, and (often) better comfort. The wins add up over weeks.</p><p>If you want a calm, doable way to bring this into your kitchen - especially gluten-free - <strong>we teach a long-ferment, everyday-gf flour method</strong> with close-up videos and printable guides:</p><h3><strong>Limited-time offer: Get the Gluten-Free Sourdough Course today for 50% OFF!</strong></h3><p></p><p class="button-wrapper"

If not, you&#8217;re in for a treat!</p><p>Inspired by French cuisine, where Camembert cheese has been enjoyed for centuries, these little pies bring a delicious twist to a classic cheese-and-pastry combination.</p><p><em><strong><a href="https://pages.bloomcooking.com/try-bloom-membership?utm_source=substack&amp;utm_medium=email&amp;utm_campaign=Camembert">Camembert, Cranberry &amp; Hazelnut Pies</a></strong></em> are everything I love in a savory bake: golden, buttery gluten-free pastry filled with gooey cheese, juicy cranberries, and a touch of natural sweetness.</p><p>The hazelnuts add a lovely crunch, while fresh thyme brings a subtle herbal aroma that ties all the flavors together. Plus, cranberries offer antioxidants, and hazelnuts provide healthy fats and vitamin E.</p><p>I&#8217;d serve these little beauties as a festive appetizer, a holiday party snack, or a cozy afternoon treat when something special is calling. They&#8217;re elegant enough for guests yet comforting enough to enjoy at home.</p><p><em><strong>Ready for a golden, cheesy bite with a sweet-tart surprise in every mouthful?</strong></em></p><div

Sort of.</p><p>But this is the part I found especially interesting:</p><h3><strong>Your brain literally makes room for sweets</strong></h3><p>In 2025, scientists at the Max Planck Institute found where the &#8220;dessert stomach&#8221; really lives: in the brain. The same nerve cells that make us feel full after a meal are also responsible for our craving for sweets afterwards. </p><p>In a study, researchers found that after people ate a sweet lunch, their desire for other sweet foods dropped. After a salty lunch, their desire for salty foods dropped instead. Researchers measured these changes shortly after the meal.</p><p>Which got me thinking about how I approach <em>my own cravings</em>.</p><p>Could I spend less time negotiating with myself about chocolate, and more time <em>actually enjoying the chocolate I wanted?</em></p><h3><mark data-color="#fff2cc" style="background-color: rgb(255, 242, 204); color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">But I came to </mark><strong><mark data-color="#fff2cc" style="background-color: rgb(255, 242, 204); color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">understand that having a little something sweet is actually more useful than simply telling myself to stop wanting it.</mark></strong></h3><p>And it&#8217;s one of the reasons I was so happy when our pastry chef suggested creating our <strong>Healthy Chocolate class</strong>.</p><p><em>Because instead of depriving myself of things I love, I want to know how to make it better and healthier, with ingredients and sweetness I can choose myself so I can enjoy a piece guilt-free knowing EXACTLY what's inside of it. <br></em></p><p class="button-wrapper"

But chocolate is the one thing I have been battling with to this day.</p><p>And do you know what frustrates me the most?</p><p>Cacao itself is not only &#8220;not bad&#8221; for you. It is actually incredibly good for you. It is naturally <a href="https://pages.bloomcooking.com/healthy-chocolate-land?utm_source=substack&amp;utm_medium=email&amp;utm_campaign=choco3">high in fiber</a> and packed with beneficial plant compounds.</p><p>So if the main ingredient is so good, how do store-bought chocolate bars end up being one of the worst things for our healthy eating goals?</p><p>Because when you read the label, you often find far more sugar, fillers and strange ingredients than actual cacao.</p><p>And the &#8220;healthier&#8221; options?</p><p>They can be expensive, overly bitter, or, let&#8217;s be honest&#8230; just not very good.</p><p>So essentially, I did not want to give up chocolate.</p><p>I just wanted to find a way to make it better.</p><p>So you can imagine how happy I was when our pastry chef suggested creating an entire course about <em><strong><a href="https://pages.bloomcooking.com/healthy-chocolate-land?utm_source=substack&amp;utm_medium=email&amp;utm_campaign=choco3">healthier homemade chocolate</a></strong></em>.</p><p>Because I am sure I am not the only one with this problem.</p><p>I knew there must be so many other people who love chocolate but want an option with better ingredients, less sugar and, most importantly, a taste that still feels like a real treat.</p><p>And that is exactly what we decided to create.</p><h2 style="text-align: center;">Our NEW Healthy Chocolate Making Course.</h2><div
