Guest guest Posted November 7, 2001 Report Share Posted November 7, 2001 hi there thanks everyone for answering my questions the last few days. i really appreciate it! thanks for the sourdough info jen. I was doing a search on the archive about sourdough and found a stream in June (or there about) where people were discussing the sourdough recipe in NT and saying that it wont produce good bread - that it will be too sour. I guess I'm at a loss about what to do. I'm following the NT recipe perfectly (freshly ground organic rye). my starter has been going for 2 days now and its starter bubbling and i've noticed that when i put my nose to it its starting to give off a strong smell. Because i have seen posts where other people got a strong smelling thing and some other people suggested that there was too much acetic acid and not enough lactic (or something or other!) and that this wasn't giving the optimun results. I guess I just want to make sure that my bread works and is really healthy and really yummy so want to know the best recipe for this. has anyone that has followed the NT sourdough recipe got brilliant results or should I follow some other recipe. I read message 965 by jennifer which suggests that another recipe is better. Oh its all a bit confusing for a newbie! any bread veterans want to give me their experienced opinion? thanks (a bit confused!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
