You only know if you try. The wheat will grow again every spring.

Mine died from neglect. It's not rocket science. Just leave some flour out uncovered for a few days. Make a paste and let nature take its course. I bet my stuff in the fridge is just mostly dead. I could revive it with true love.

Can't say I thought of it that way. People make the process sound so unnecessarily complex (i.e. take X and Y amounts of flour and water, each day remove Z amount of stuff out, put X and Y of flour and water back). And you have to do that for a week, and then like once a week or something forever as long as you want it to live.

Bah... It's stupid easy. Just letting spores from anaerobic microbes fall into the flour. Internets making a big deal over nothing.

Maybe I will just experiment that way. The other option is checking a local bakery or two and seeing if they sell starter but I dunno if that's even worth the effort.

Made some instant pot French onion soup. It was really easy and hit the spot - tastes better than it looks.

(That is pepper not a dead fly at the bottom of the bowl) haha

It's not. Shit floats around in the air everywhere. Leave a plate of the flour-water mixture out on a plate a couple days. Extra surface area will capture more bugs. Use distilled water or tap water that's been left out or heated to cook off the chlorine. Bugs are the whole reason it's added n the first place. They'll start breeding on their own, guaranteed.

Add a tiny bit of milk. SF sour culture is lactobacilli.

I know most of the US has no idea what a butter tart is since it is one of the few truly Canadian foods but my daughter-in-law made butter tart muffins yesterday and they are out of this world good.

The actual ones look pretty much like the mini-pecan pies that are sold here. Still both the muffins and the pies look delicious.
