Since Unknown
I received my starter from a good colleague who received it from her mother at her wedding. It has been her family's sourdough starter for generations. She couldn't tell me how many generations they've had it. He loves pear syrup or molasses and survives a good 4 weeks in the fridge without food. But after 1 day at room temperature and 1 feeding he is ready for use again. It is a rye starter
Characteristics
Balanced between yeast bacteria and vinegar bacteria. If you feed him too much, he also likes to escape over the kitchen counter. Tip: Always place in a second, larger container
