I just picked up a stainless steel teaspoon and stirred my starter with it. Please tell me I don't have to throw it out. I have just gotten it to making great sourdough bread. It was made according to SourDoLady's recipe using pineapple juice and unbleached flour with spring water. And it seems I read never to use metal to store or stir it with. What will happen? and do I really have to start all over? or can this starter be salvaged? Any answers will be greatly appreciated!
hi, you're not the only one...I did it many times and inspite of it, my 1 year old sourdough keeps healthy....when I remember a silicone spatula or wooden spoon...Bye Paolo
It is fun! I love to bake, but I just didn't want to have to wait another month or so for a new starter to be ready to make some more sourdough LOL I make other breads which are wonderful, but I"m really into the taste of the sourdough. I'm working up to bagels, saw a recipe for sourdough bagels i'm gonna try as soon as I get enough bread made for me and my freinds. Have a happy day everyone!
