Old starter update. I am re starting a starter that has been in my freezer since November 2021.

Yesterday I let it thaw, moved it to a jar, let it warm a little more and fed it.

Today I looked it over, and I think it needs a second feed. I discarded about a tablespoon and fed it again. It is bubbly and coming alive but not quite ready to bake with. Stay tuned for day three!

It’s been way too long.

We have wrapped up our first year as a homeschool family. We took a deep breath. We have begun summer and lately my kids have been asking where the sourdough is.

She was sleeping in the freezer. I had an active starter going in April and gave her to a friend who needed useable starter asap. I knew I had some tucked away in the freezer, as well as dried starter so I knew I’d be ok when I was ready to go again.

Today begins the process. I found my oldest frozen bag of starter and pulled her out. I let her thaw on the counter for a few hours, and have now moved her to a jar. You can already see her bubbles! I’m going to let her warm up a little more before her first feed. Let’s see how long it takes for my starter to go from frozen (since 2021) to useable.

Sourdough fans… is she dead or alive?

I have two more dates in April that I could squeeze in a class! Anyone want to claim them? - life gets crazy in May and June so now is your chance!

Also. She’s alive. Just super hungry! 😋

I completely forgot to take pictures during our class. Thank you to each and every person who joined me at the Brentwood Rec Center tonight! I had a wonderful time and cannot wait to see your breads! Please be sure to send me photos!

The rec is considering another class in April for those who missed out tonight. I heard that quite a few people couldn’t get in and I am happy to teach a second class. Reach out to them directly if that’s you!

I’m also booking classes for April if you’re interested in getting on my schedule. Things get pretty crazy in June so let’s get those classes on the calendar before summer takes over.

I have a sold out class tonight for the Brentwood Nh rec department. I always bring a treat for my students and tonight’s class is getting to try a sourdough croissant loaf. It is so fluffy and buttery, and yes, I will have the recipe available because everyone is going to want to go home and make this one!

I am horrible at balancing homeschooling, working my real job, and remembering to post on this page.

I just wanted to say hi! I’m still here! Still teaching. February has been quiet but I do have a full class for the Brentwood Rec department coming up next week and a couple of one on one sessions booked.

If you want to learn how to bake with sourdough, or just want a kit so you can figure it out on your own, I’m your girl!
