Tried time and again to create my own starter from scratch but failed. Till I got this one from a teacher and I haven't looked back since . I started sourdough baking in my quest for adding more and more fermented foods into our diet . And being gluten sensitive, this is one bread that works for me.

특징

She bubbles a lot and tends to bubble over at times. My starter is very resilient . There was a time when I moved house and hadn't been able to feed the starter for a month . I was sure it had died in the fridge . But when I took it out , discarded the hooch and started feeding every 4-6 hrs , she bounced right back and pretty sone she was happily bubbling away.

I take the starter from the fridge and feed it about 100gm of flour and 100 gm of water . Mix and leave in a glass jar on the counter top with the cover loosely on for 8 to 10 hrs . I keep the original level marked with a rubber band . If the starter has doubled I use it for making my dough , if it hasn't , I will discard 100 Gm and again feed it 100 gm water and 100 gm flour and leave for 6 hrs .
