Well as a matter of fact I am in the process of fermenting right now..............my liver. Sorry, couldn't resist
Sourdough Starter is easier to keep and use than you might think.We keep ours in a old butter tub in the fridge and try to use it every couple of months by adding it (the night before baking with it) to a couple cups of warm water mixed with a can of evaporated milk and as much white flour as it takes to make it look like thick pancake batter. That's it nothing else. In the morning after it has bubbled all night, we take out a cup of starter and return it to the fridge for future use, then usually make Pancakes or Biscuits and throw some in our bread machine to add a little kick to the English Muffin Bread. The dark liquid that you might find on top of your Starter is a form of naturally-occurring alcohol known as "Hooch", which indicates that your sourdough starter is hungry. Hooch is harmless but should be poured off and discarded prior to stirring and feeding your starter. If hooch is forming on your starter regularly, increase the feeding frequency and/or move the starter to a cooler spot (like the fridge) to slow things down.Doug
