Guest guest Posted July 17, 2004 Report Share Posted July 17, 2004 I was reading about this recently in an older _Joy of Cooking_ cookbook and I got the impression that just means if you bake with yeast, then your air has yeast spores in it. If your kitchen is ultra-clean and you don't bake with yeast, it won't have yeast spores. Just my interpretation of what I read wrt making sourdough starter.

Guest guest Posted July 18, 2004 Report Share Posted July 18, 2004 Tom, You may want to look into EM. That is one very effective way of "priming" or culturing one's kitchen environment, from the air to all the surfaces, with beneficial and in fact, beneficial leader bacteria. Leader as in leading, training, entraining, culturing all the bacteria including "harmful" or unwanted bacteria. It's a fascinating area to work and play with. I'm just starting. below is a good place to start if you're interested. Tonio http://www.rawpaleodiet.org/em/ How on earth does one "prime" one's kitchen air with the right species of bacteria???
