I love lambic beers and I'm fascinated by the idea that yeast is everywhere. I was curious what my local yeasts might taste like and was happy to find that making a starter from scratch was so simple. I have a new hobby and a delicious one too.

특징

It's still young and hard to tame. It has a lot of lift but can be very sour if fermented too long. Breads have plenty of lift and pancakes a tangy zip. An overnight proof yields a tender crumb.

1
When the starter is ready to be fed, discard all but 40g. This gets rid of the spent flour and keeps the acid load down.

Add 20g of each of the flours and 40g of the room-temperature, dechlorinated water. Mix well and let sit covered in a warm place until the next feeding.

Let chlorinated tap water sit uncovered on the counter overnight to let the chlorine evaporate.

2
Rye flour has all kinds of yeasty critters in it. It really kick-starts the starter.
20g Rye flour
3
Cultures adapt to the flours that they are fed so all-purpose flour is added to make sure the starter likes to eat more than just Rye.
