Bread Lessons - Sourdough Starter: Step-by-Step (Day 4)

No life yet :(

Anyway,



Day 4

Today I took out 1/4 cup of the previous day's starter out and discarded the rest.

Then to this I added 1/4 cup of wholemeal flour and

1/4 cup of water and mixed it up well.
Make sure the water is not straight out of the tap (chlorinated!) Use bottled or spring water. Failing that boil some water and let it sit till cool to evaporate all the chlorine away.

Hopefully the yeasties will catch on soon....
