Sour Dough
When you receive that donation of sour dough, friendship batter or whatever they call it. Don't grit your teeth. There is so much you can do with it and you don't even have to give any away.
Here are my notes on satisfactory sour dough:
1. The starter sour dough can be frozen when received. When thawed
treat as Day 1 in schedule. Or use for baking that day after allowing the
sour dough to come to room temperature.
2. Day 1-receive 1C starter, Day2,3&4 stir or mush the bag, Day 5 add 1C flour, 1C sugar, and
1C milk.Stir or mush. Day 6,7,8&9 stir/mush, Day 10 add 1C flour, 1C sugar, 1C milk and stir/mush.
Give 1C starter to 3 friends in ziplic bag or 'sour cream' container. Do not refridgerate!
3. DO NOT use any type of metal spoon or bowl for mixing
DO NOT refridgerate.
4. Keep the lid on your "tupperware" just sitting on top, not actually sealed. If air gets into the ziploc bag, let it out and reseal. It is normal for the batter to rise, bubble & ferment.
5. It is a good idea to write the date of DAY 1 on your calendar, the bag or tupperware to keep you on track.
This collection of recipes come from my grandmothers, and the recipes that have been given to me with the sour dough.
