It's crucial to discard all but 1/2 of your starter at this stage to promote resilience and further development. Adding 1 & 1/4 cups of flour and 2/3 cups of water ensures the starter remains hydrated and well-fed. Allow it to rest for a few hours, and watch for it to double in size; this indicates it’s ready for baking! Engaging in daily care and adjustments fosters a strong ferment which is key for great bread. Sourdough baking can be an exciting yet challenging venture, especially for beginners.
