Received an Alaskan yeast packet as a wedding gift....and I was hooked!
Characteristics
The more I use my starter the lighter it is in flavor, richness and texture. Typically, I like to use it about every 5-6 weeks for a more sour, rich flavor., I've gone as long as 9 weeks and the flavor is too pungent for the grandkids, but we love it! If I had to describe it the texture is light, tart sweet on the tongue.
