Submitted by: Kathy
Potato water and flour can do the job alone in four or five days, but you may choose to add sugar or yeast to hasten the fermentation process.

All you need is a few moments every day to stir, and in five days you will have a unique starter enriched with potato flakes.

Some 25 years ago, I received this recipe and some starter from a good friend, who is now a neighbor. I use it to make many loaves of the Sourdough French Bread (recipe also in Recipe Finder).

This starter is definitely my favorite active starter in my kitchen. It's working better than my white flour starter and yeast experiment. 

Herman Sourdough Starter

Submitted by: Sue
This is a recipe for a sweet sourdough starter known as Herman. There are a number of things that can be made from it. It will take 15 days for the starter to mature and be ready to use the first time you make it.

Make your starter in a glass container and store in the refrigerator after fermentation has occurred.

This no-knead bread is no fuss to make and delicious, too, which I first learned when I was the cook at a remote fishing camp. It has a crisp crust and distinctive sourdough flavor from the 'starter' yeast mixture you stir up in advance. I was surprised at how easy it is! -Evelyn Gebhardt, Kasilof, Alaska 

Sourdough Bread II

A little forethought is required here, as the starter takes several days to ferment. Once you combine it with flour, yeast and other standard bread ingredients, you 'll get a San Francisco-style sour loaf that will do you proud.

It may take a little time, but making a good starter is easy! It is best to use organically grown flour and non-chlorinated water because they contain no chemicals which might kill the wild yeast.
