HINTS FOR SUCCESSFUL SOURDOUGH BAKING

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

2.All ingredients, including starter, should be at room temperature (70°F-80°F/21°C-27°C). Cold ingredients will slow down the activity of the yeast.

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

4.If starters separates (liquid forms on surface), stir until blended before using.

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

6.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.
