I did not use a sourdough starter with this, instead I used LAB serum and a small amount of yeast?
LAB serum is easier to maintain and keep. I do end up with too much sourdough starter and waste lots of flour as it needs to be fed to keep going.
Pleased to know you can bake too!
I never even heard of LAB serum :D
You mentioned that some people don't like sourdough and that's the only thing I know. My sister used to make it for a while. Then she stopped.
I love baking! Breads, cakes, cookies... you name it.
