Excited (Day 8)

To toast my half way mark on my program, I decided to make a ‘Starter’. Huh…what am I on about you may wonder?? A ‘Starter’ or chef is required if you are interested to make sour dough breads which gives it a finer crumb and a better taste. 7 more days to D-day….I suppose, I need something to motivate myself to look forward at the finishing line!!

I decided to follow the recipe shared by wildyeast. By the way, I just love her blog, very interesting and so full of information for a novice baker like me. I must admit that sometimes I get lazy to read and just look forward to something quick. Shortcuts is my second name, ha ha.

I’ll split the count down on the Starter separately as it’ll be easier to zoom in for future references. I’m sure not everyone would be too interested to read my program progress. Ha ha…I’m sure a Starter would be more exciting – especially if you are a keen baker or bread eater like me. I promise to be weary and not be tempted by the ‘yeast’!! LOL
