So, that “nasty” sourdough starter…
Produces some pretty great bread…

I threw my “nasty” sourdough starter mentioned in my previous entry into the fridge for a week… I pulled it out intending to throw it away and got sidetracked. The next morning it was bubbly and smelled AWESOME (not like moldy gym sock like it did when I first attempted to use it) so I fed it… and WOW! That thing popped back to life! Overflowed the jar all over my counter too LOL
So I decided to give a sourdough loaf another try. I used this recipe but with whole wheat starter and flour as detailed here. Other than my bread being a little flat (it was too wet and spread too much) the loaves came out PERFECTLY!

Just the right amount of sour, the kids love it – and I’m glad I doubled the recipe and made two loaves!
