Have you started a sourdough start yet?  I wish you would join in the fun cuz it adds a delightful tang to recipes and of course offers other benefits too!

Here’s a good sourdough started recipe from King Arthur Flour with some awesome tips and tricks for taking care of it.  It needs a little bit of love in the form of flour and water a couple times a week if it lives out of the fridge.  If you keep it in the fridge then once a week will do it!
