Reply from my dear DIL

Gretchen,
I Recently bought this book on sourdough
http://www.amazon.com/Alaska-Sourdough-Ruth-Allman/dp/0882400851
Basically I made my starter and kept feeding it. Then added grated veggies, chives, tomatoes and cheese and a bit of bicarb soda. Cook them like pancakes :)

I asked if there was flour and her reply was this.


no flour, just 2 cups of sourdough, 4 tsp oil, salt spices, veggies 1 tsp bicarb soda and cheese.
Though I checked out the recipes on the forum, and the difference with the starter recipes either rye or wheat I use, both have a tiny bit of yeast to speed it along.
I have had this sourdough for ten days now and just keep adding to it, then letting it bubble overnight. If I am not using it for a while, I keep it in the fridge.

Too easy eh? Thanks D DIL

They look nice Gretchen. How is your loaf going, is it rising yet?

No it is  not JD. I am taking it to bed with me so I can check it through the night?  Very worrying  is Snow White.

You think it will rise?

I would have thought it should have risen a bit in all this time Gretchen.  It's all a bit tricky isn't it?

My dough rose exactly 1 centimeter last night so after reading cookies hints I think it may have come in contact with the salt so I am going to put it back  into the THERMOTHINGY with more starter and some flour  and see what happens to "Snow White"

Well this will be interesting.

I didnt have enough starter to make a full loaf, so have made 1/2.  Its a funny dough, liquidy?!?!

I put it in a pudding bowl with baking paper.

I am thinking this is too funny ;D a bit of an experiment.

Have fed the remains & my new starter.

I had to ditch my starter last night. I had been neglecting it and it really didn't smell very good. I've got a huge week at work this week and next before going to Thailand so will start some more when we return, hopefully things will be a little less crazy.

Ok re-done the bread as it was too liquidy. Threw back in TM added more flour & kneaded for 4mins.

I wonder how it will go.

This sourdough seems to take more time to tame than a new puppy!!!
