Sour Dough Starter Day 2

 If you are just joining, you can catch up !**** Sour Dough Starter Day 1****

Today is the second day of making a our dough starter.
I know that you can go online and buy a ready to go starter but sometimes it's more fun to make it yourself and it's always good learning  new skill.

Your starter might look like this:



So now you need to take your starter and stir it a bit. you might notice a sour smell already.
DISCARD half of the mixture and add:

1/2 C warm water
3/4 C rye flour

Combine and place in your warm spot for another 24 hours.

                              ******Starter is ready for another 24 hours of warmth******

Tomorrow the routine changes a little and we will switch to all purpose or bread flour. Make sure you have some ready!!

In about 5 days we will start baking!!!!

See you tomorrow!
