Experience
Hannah made her first starter after leaving her job in public relations in 2018, and soon after started the blog makeitdough.com to document all the lessons she learned as she nurtured her sourdough starter. Hannah's blog ignited a newfound interest in recipe development. In 2019, the blog won the Reader's Choice Special Interest Blog Award from Saveur Magazine. One year later, Hannah published her first cookbook, Sourdough Every Day. She's been featured on the Sourdough Podcast and have published recipes for the King Arthur Baking Company, Challenger Breadware, and Brod and Taylor.
First bake: "First thing I ever baked were oatmeal chocolate chip cookies."
