About Valeria Weaver

Valeria lives in Chicago with her three kids and beer-brewing husband. Born and raised in Russia, she incorporates her Siberian heritage into everyday cooking for her family. She loves baking with ancient grains and all things naturally leavened. There's hardly anything she hasn’t tried fermenting. She works full-time as a medical device rep but always finds time for her two passions: photography and cooking. You can find her at Beets and Bones.

Made from the whole grains that were prevalent in colonial times, Boston brown bread is a New England staple that's sadly fading from American tradition. This version is leavened with sourdough starter and steamed in the Instant Pot!

The one thing most flan recipes have in common? Processed, condensed milk and lots of sugar. With just a few wholesome ingredients and the helping hand of my beloved Instant Pot, this Maple Flan is a breeze to make. Best of all, it's not cloyingly sweet and has the perfect creamy texture!

Sourdough Sandwich Bread {made with einkorn, spelt, & oat} | Any time I get a whiff of the heart-warming deliciousness of freshly baked bread, all the best of my childhood memories come flooding back. And this sourdough sandwich bread is my tried-and-true staple. I could make it in my sleep! | TraditionalCookingSchool.com

A festive Russian gathering always includes a lineup of chopped salads. Make this yummy probiotic potato salad a meal of its own, or serve it with a cup of soup and crusty bread!

I have a theory... Cinnamon rolls, like pizza, are enjoyable even when imperfect. These cinnamon rolls, however, are better than just enjoyable. They are soft, fragrant, and beautiful -- plus naturally fermented for additional nutrients and easier digestion.
