Sourdough Starter

Print Recipe
Prep Time 7 days
Servings 1 loaf

Ingredients
  

  • 75 g flour
  • 75 g water room temperature

Instructions
 

To create your starter

  • In a jar, add the flour and water and mix until it forms a gloopy paste similar to a pancake batter consistency.
  • Partially cover the jar and keep in the kitchen at room temperature.
  • Every day, add more flour and water and mix together, until it is 'ripe'. The mix will have a yeast like smell and will be covered in bubbles. This is an active starter.

To maintain your starter

  • Keep your starter in the fridge and 'feed' it once a week by adding more flour and water.
  • Never use up all your starter, otherwise you will have to start the entire process again.
