To Replenish Starter

Stir well to blend. cover and let stand in warm place until bubbly. 3 to 5 hours. Store starter in loosely covered glass container in refrigerator. If not used at the end of

one week remove 1 cup starter and discard: then replenish with equal amounts of flour and warm water as instructed above.

tiints for Successful Sourdough Baking

Always make starter in a glass container. Never store in metal containers or use metal utensils. The starter will react with the metal.

All ingredients, including starter, should be at room temperature (70°- 80°F). Cold ingredients will slow down the activity of the yeast.

When removing starter. always replenish it. Let stand at room temperature for 3 to 5 hours, until bubbles start to form. Cover and refrigerate.

If starter separates (liquid forms on the surface), stir until blended before using.

If the liquid that forms on the surface of starter turns pink in color at any time, discard the starter and start over again with

fresh ingredients.

important: Sourdough bread made in an automatic breadmaker requires the addition of yeast. The starter’s strength and the rising times in the breadmaker are not sufficient to allow for proper rising without the use of additional yeast.
