What is Sourdough Starter?

Sourdough starter is flour and water mixed into a smooth paste which becomes leavened as wild yeasts start feeding on it, filling the mixture with the lactobacilli bacteria. It is used for baking bread and other baked goods that need some leavening. Foods made with sourdough starter have a tangy, sour taste.

Ingredients

water

...Water is a substance and chemical compound made up of hydrogen and oxygen. It is clear, fluid, flavorless and odorless. Water is a necessity in nearly every aspect of life, including cooking, baking and hydrating the human body. Water can be served as a cold beverage, or at any temperature comfortable to the mouth and skin.

all purpose wheat flour

...All purpose flour comes from wheat and though wheat is cultivated all around the world today, it was first cultivated in Turkey 10,000 years ago. All purpose flour is white in color and has a soft texture. This incredibly versatile flour is used in everything from breads, cakes, pastries, crackers, pasta, sauces and much more because of its pleasing and mild flavor that is slightly nutty and buttery. The gluten protein is what helps hold together breads and other products, part of what makes all purpose wheat flour so popular.
