This starter was created in the 1800s in California and has been in the Simpson family since then. I got it from my friend Morgan Simpson and have been teaching her to make things like pizza dough, bread, crackers, and English muffins. She grew up using it only for pancakes. I started using sourdough after moving to Alaska in 2006. I love this connection to the past instead of yeast from a store

Caratteristiche

This sourdough is so active and so forgiving. It always starts bubbling within minutes. It has a mild flavor and gives bread a lot of rise and chewy texture. It has been in the Simpson family since the 1850s in California but now it lives in Alaska.

Metodo di lavorazione

1
I am currently feeding my sourdough with water and bread flour from Costco. In the past I have had multiple starters (from the same initial starter) with whole wheat, all purpose, and semolina. Usually I feed it 50% water and 50% flour, but every few feedings, I give it more like 40% water and 60% flour.
