Reconstituting Sourdough Flakes (or Dried Sourdough Starter)

Take about 2 tablespoons of your dried sourdough starter. Add enough water to make a paste. To your paste, add 1 cup each of water & flour. Mix well. After 24 hours, check to see if your starter is living yet. This would be in the form of many bubbles on the surface. If there are no bubbles, or not many yet, give it a stir and allow to sit for another 24 hours. Once you have revived your starter, feed as you would normal sourdough starter.

  1. Thanks for posting about this, Michaela! I had *no clue* you could dry your sourdough starter like this. I have some starter that just got done a couple days ago. Havne't done anything with it yet ... but I'm gonna get some bread started so it can rise overnight ... and while I'm at it, I'll put some on a cookie sheet to dry too. :-D

"....But if we are the Body
Why aren't His arms reaching
Why aren't His hands healing
Why aren't His words teaching
And if we are the Body
Why aren't His feet going
Why is His love not showing them there is a way

Jesus paid much too high a price
For us to pick and choose who should come
And we are the Body of Christ...."
