On day 4 with the sourdough starter

Tweet

Back in the early days of the COVID lockdown I was like everyone else and decided to try making a sourdough starter. I didn't do much research though and the whole thing was a failure. I recently received a copy of The Perfect Loaf which is a baking book all about sourdough so here I go again. I had to get rye flour to get the starter going and it is now on day 4. Today started the twice a day refreshing/feeding. I have a couple more days to go before I can actually use the starter to make bread and when I can start saving the discard for other purposes. We shall see how it goes!
