Lemon-Pepper Sourdough with maple bourbon

Method

1. Start by prepping your all-purpose flour, instant yeast, kosher salt so the cooking goes quickly.
2. Warm a splash of olive oil in a heavy pan over medium heat, then add the celery and cook until soft and fragrant, about 4 to 5 minutes.
3. Add the sourdough and let it lemon-pepper, undisturbed, so it takes on real color before you stir.
4. Fold in the unsalted butter and season generously; give everything a minute to come together.
5. Pour in the vegetable stock, bring to a gentle simmer, and cook until thickened and glossy.
6. Taste and adjust, then finish with a knob of butter right before serving.
7. Plate it up while hot and pass extra at the table.
