My son recently got a new job and brings a turkey sandwich to work every day for lunch. And to keep up with his bread-consumption and make it easier for him, I've been buying loaves of non-organic white bread every week. Yuck! (And even just the thought of turkey every day makes me gag. I don't know how he can stand it.)
I hate it that I have to buy non-organic white bread, but he's a picky eater and won't eat the heavy whole-wheat organic ones, especially if they have seeds or nuts in them. But that seems to be all I can find out here lately.
And while the organic, artisan-type loaves of sourdough I've been baking are wonderful (I'll share my recipe and process eventually), they're too large and holey for his sandwiches. So we've been stuck with the non-organic white bread for now.
But no more! I'm sick of it. And I hate feeding it to him. And so it's time to find a good sourdough sandwich bread recipe, one that makes a nice, softer, tighter-crumbed loaf of sourdough that slices thin and holds together well (and freezes nicely, because we always freeze the extras - sourdough freezes and thaws beautifully).
Hopefully one of these will work. It's worth a try.
