Sourdough Journey Day 2: First Feeding!🫧

Day 2 of the #lemon8challenge and it’s mine for the first feeding! 🥣 My starter currently has a pancake batter consistency and I don’t see any bubbles yet, but I’m staying patient.

🙋🏾‍♀️Question for the pros:

• How long did it take for your starter to show the signs of life?

• Is it normal to have no bubbles on day 2?🍞

Feeling intimated by your starter? Do not overthink it! If you feel like things aren’t going how you expect it I promise you, restarting is not worth it! My starter took almost a full month to establish due to environmental factors and climate. Have any other questions? Let’s chat! #My2024 #L

A guide titled 'Sourdough: for beginners' outlines a 6-day process for creating a sourdough starter, including daily feeding instructions and ingredient quantities. It features an illustration of a baked sourdough loaf and lists necessary ingredients like a glass jar, filtered water, bread flour, a small rubber spatula, and measuring cups.

Sourdough starter : for beginners

TIP #1 : For your first measurement, weigh the flour using a kitchen scale so you can get an idea of how the mixture should feel. Do not weigh the measuring cup! It should be like a thick paste, like peanut butter. If you need to add a little more water to incorporate the flour, that is OK too!
