Since 2015

My mother used sourdough when I was a child so as an adult I decided to start and use my own starters.

Characteristics

Ed is named after an instructor I had in college who had a bubbly effervescent personality. Ed is the same-bubbly and frothy when fully active. Ed makes good bread and pancakes.

Result

Savory or sweet. Great way to use excess starter instead of discarding it.

Bread

Primary use for Ed. Bread is delicious toasted with butter and a little honey.

I enjoy using my 2 sourdough starters to try new things and learn from each experience to improve on the next baking session.
