Bread

I’ve taken my sourdough starter out of the fridge after 4 months, have fed it once, 48 hours ago, and this is what it looks like.

And that’s just after one feeding. I can’t wait to see what it looks like next week.

I’m looking to make 2 loaves of bread; a sandwich loaf for both of us, and an artisanal loaf for moi. I can always make croutons with what doesn’t get eaten, right?

I also fed the kombucha, so now all I need to do is find the bottles I bought with the twist on caps. They can’t be far.

Until next time, stay safe.

Update: my starter developed a mold infestation, so I had to get rid of it. Fortunately, I had dried a batch in 2021, so I took a few pieces from the jar, and fed it with flour, and boiled/cooled water, and it’s coming back alive in just a few hours. Let me show you the dried sourdough.

The dried sourdough on the left, and the new starter on the right. And, yes, that is a 1L tube of the best of unsalted butter. Par of it’s going into the small tub just above it.

2nd update: I found my jars, washed them, filled them with mango pieces, and they’ve been on the counter since the 9th of Nov. Let me show you.

Where all of the other 7 screw cap bottles are, I have no idea. But, look at the lovely SCOBY on the top of the Kombucha. It’s gorgeous, not to mention healthy.
