Sourdough IS easy

indica

 Just a quick thanks, I followed the method from this site for making my own starter.

It works a treat, lives in my fridge and comes out once a week for pizza and bread baking. It is a simple rye starter, used straight from the fridge, refreshed and then returned.

I use 1 cup starter, 2 cups water, 5 to 6 cups flour (strong white with sometimes 1 cup rye). 1/4 cup olive oil and 3 tsp sea salt.

Mix, knead, prove overnight and it is good to go, never fails.

 

Cheers.

Thought I'd log back in and say hi again.

The same startes is still going. 5 tblsp starter into 1 litre whater.

Whatever flour to make a usable dough along with a tablespoon of himalayan pink salt is my goto pizza now.

Make it when I get up and it's good to go for dinner.
