For those who are wondering about the stiffer starter and still sitting on the fence. I wanted to share how great it is to transfer your levian or liquid starter to a stiffer starter. The rewards and baking are so much better as well. I transferred this approximately 2 months ago.
I feed my starter yesterday afternoon and discarded late evening and refeeded it again to bake today. I just wanted to share how beautifully it grew overnight and surprised to wake-up to see it more than tripled in size. This is the first time, he rose so high and absolutely gorgeous and strong. I mixed my dough this morning. It was so spongy, soft, creamy and marshmallowy like. He is living up to his name as I named him 4 months ago as Marshmallow Bubbles. ๐ซง Just as exactly as he performed as a great starter.
I have a tough time whipping up the starter with this spatula. Please can you recommend a good size spatula for stirring as my spatula is difficult and smears all the starter all over my jar. Please excuse my jar even when I use a clean one it is difficult to keep clean.
I want to thank all the Stiff Starter Squad for all their help and advice. They are all available to help answer your questions as I am a beginner learner and experimenting and still finding my way round.
Please scroll to the right to see all the bubbles in the jar and how high it rose overnight. ๐ซง
