Day 1 - King Arthur Flour Fresh Sourdough Starter - FEED ME

My Sourdough adventure begins.

I am excited, nervous and anxious to see how this new baking journey is going to go!

King Arthur Flour and I have a long delicious history together.  And when I saw a great sale on their website, I decided it was time to embark on my sourdough journey.

My one ounce Fresh Sourdough Starter arrived today and a simple booklet with Sourdough tips and recipes.  And the message, "Feed Me".  In order to keep the starter alive and healthy it is recommended you feed it within 24 hours. 

So after I put my boys to bed I followed the instructions carefully.

It was time to feed my starter for the first time.  **it is recommended to weigh out all the ingredients for accuracy**

I weighed 2 ounces of lukewarm water and added it in the container of fresh sourdough starter.  Let me tell you, the sour and acidic aroma made my mouth water in anticipation of recipes to come. 

I gently stirred the water around to loosen up the starter.  And then the starter and liquid were added into a bowl with 8 ounces of lukewarm water and 8.5 ounces of Unbleached All-purpose flour.  A quick stir to incorporate all the ingredients and now it was time to cover the bowl loosely in a cool room and wait 8 to 12 hours for the next step.  I am hopeful as I already saw some small bubbles.


To be continued....
