Savoury Baked Goods
I’ve been working with breads for about 8 years and have a lot to learn. I’ve never been successful with sour dough starters but recently was introduced to Baker and Spice: Baking with Passion by Lepard and Whittington.
I tried Gail Stephens’ San Francisco sourdough starter but seem not to get it to start. I used the recipe from the book and included grapes. Still no visible result.
Do you have a suggestion that will result in a good starter…I’m anxious to add sour dough breads to my list of regular yeast breads.
Hi Win.
I have made my own starter. I think I used organic raisins.
Making sourdoughs requires a lot of waiting around, frankly I am too impatient.
We do have kind of a resident expert here in Berlin. His name is Daniel Rios, he has this blog http://aehrelichgesagt.blogspot.com/ and he is also on Twitter as @misterrios
His sourdough is some of the best I have ever tasted. He also gave me some of his starter. Which I neglected, sadly.
Hope that helps you.
