May 18 Sourdough bread

I’ve heard that different parts of the country, even different kitchens, have variations in sourdough flavor. All based on microbes available. I had a starter for years that died in 2006 during a stressful summer. Neglect. It made a tangy chewy bread, essentially a butter sponge. Writing this makes me want to try again.

  1. At my first dinner out with new people in Vermont, a woman noted she didn't like sourdough bread. It's the only time I've ever heard that.

  2. I've never made it, but a friend is getting into it, and has offered me a starter.

  3. I really need to do this. After reading Sourdough by Robin Sloan, I was very motivated but never found the time to start. Maybe today.
