Esther
Depuis 2016
Many previous tries, then becoming part of the Perfect Sourdough FaceBook group, purchasing all of Teresa Greenways courses, and the rest is history!
Caractéristiques
Esther is a slightly soupy, yet tacky, sourdough starter, off white. She is happier when used regularly, she gets sad when she gets lost in the back of the fridge. When fed regularly Esther rises quickly to the occasion and adds a distinctly sour/fruity taste to the bread. She works well with others, loves to pair with fruity yeast waters, & enjoys the addition of freshly fermented grains.

This was one of my first starters, more soupy than later ones.

Crumpets, English muffins, pizza
We make a ton of things with our starter discards, one of my faves were cheddar crackers
