Make Your Own Sourdough |
|
|
If you make homemade bread, why not try sourdough. You save lots of money on yeast (which can be expensive) and once you get the starter going, it is pretty simple.
Just mix equal warm water, strong flour and either riced potatoes (not boiling) or (better), the water from organic raisins soaked for two days (until fizzy). The mixture should be a very soft dough. Let ferment in a glass jar for 3 days and refrigerate.
Use in place of yeast when making bread. You will need to . .
a) allow for long proofing times (approx. 3 hours each proof) and
b) refresh the starter after each use (just add more flour and warm water and let ferment overnight before refrigerating).
The results are a delicious sourdough bread, which is very inexpensive.
