| It's alive! |
I fished the sourdough starter out from the back of the shelf of the fridge. It's been sitting there, untouched, for three and a half years. I wasn't sure if it would even be viable at this point. But I got it out anyway.
After giving it a good stir and a feeding, I set it on the counter for the night. Low and behold, that thing is still alive!
Anyway, I'm thrilled it's still viable. This afternoon I started a batch of rich sourdough to make jam-filled kolache buns tomorrow. I'm working through our stash of homemade jams this month and next. I think kolache sounds like a good use for the plum jam.
So, during the pandemic, did you ride the sourdough train, too in 2020?
I ran out of yeast early on and couldn't get any until mid-summer of 2020. I made sourdough pizza crust (very good -- gave the pizza a cheesier taste), sourdough burger and hot dog buns (my son and his wife thought those burger buns were the best they'd ever tasted), sourdough bread, and sourdough raisin and spice rolls (favorite of mine) that spring.
