Re: My Journey Thus Far

Holy whole wheat flour!

I fed the 2 on the right last night using Ken Forkish’s instruction.  The WW clearly liked it.  Ha.  I’m going to repeat it for the next couple of days.  We have plans on Friday so no pizza night.  Killing me!!  If I can get this consistent, I’ll use it for pizza this weekend.  Can’t wait to try it!

The one on the left is from Jim Lahey’s book.  The instructions are to use 10g starter, 100g water, 50g flour.  Let it sit for a few hours or days until it rises and collapses.  Then refresh again. I’m on my second go round with this one.  It has pictures to show the stages and it did exactly what the book explains.  It’s awesome!

I picked up a case of mason jars yesterday.  I plan on trying a bunch of different flours once I get the hang of this.  The wife is gonna love this.  Ha!

Just realized the labels are too dark to read.  Left is WW starter refreshed with AP.  Middle is all Rye, Right is all WW.
