Hello friends!

I'm keen to start baking sourdough and want to create my own starter. There are a slew of recipes online, but I'm keen to know your tips/tricks/ratios/steps to begin this journey.

Much love from this UK loaf lover 🥖

Could try asking a good bakery around for a little starter.

Oh yeah, great idea! What steps would you take to maintain that?

You just need to feed it regurarly. If you store it in the fridge, it slows the process down but even then, once a week you need to get rid of old dough and add in some new flour (with some water potentially)
