Looks great!

Currently, M&S White/Rye Sourdough is my fave bread at the moment.

£2 a pop though.Wonder how that compares to the cost of make your own....

I’d guess likely around 4 times the cost really it’s only flour and water, just time and effort but worth it and rewarding when it goes right !

Quick question.
I make my starter dough, 500g, half it and top it back up to 500g etc.
How much of this do I use per loaf?
Say I was making a 500g loaf, do I use half the starter or less/more?

busterbenny2001 Publish time 26-11-2019 04:53:05

For sanfransisco style sourdough I use about 200g of starter to Make 2 small ish loaves around 600g per loaf

If you build up too much starter you can reduce it just keep a small amount,lots say ditch it but I’m looking for recipie ideas for the waste Unfed starter, trying pancakes tomorrow!

Been reading up on low impact sourdough where you hardly need to knead at all !,

So got a batch mixed and proving overnight gone for a 50 50 white with seeded whole meal at 60% hydration, it’s going to sit overnight and hopefully be workable in the morning.

Also found a recipie for buttermilk pancakes and waffles out of the waste starter so got a sponge going overnight for them too good fun this sourdough stuff !

First time I had sourdough was on holiday some years ago. The ball was scooped out and filled with clam chowder which was a delicious combination.
I often get a sourdough loaf from Lidl which is ok if eaten the same day. But I bet your fresh baked is amazing.

Well first effort at using waste starter was a roaring success

Best pancakes ever apparently !

Lovely taste of sourdough soft fluffy pancakes
