It should theoretically be ready sometime between 8 and 11 am tomorrow. In the meantime, I made some really tasty pancakes with the starter I would have otherwise discarded -- hence the confidence about having fixed the starter.<br /><br />The sourdough site I used recommended running the starter on the counter for 30-90 days to develop the flavor completely. I can see where more time would mean more complexity. We'll see how it continues to play out.<br /><br /><img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=leanne&ditemid=41996" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/> comments https://leanne.dreamwidth.org/41996.html bread cooking food content public 0 https://leanne.dreamwidth.org/20360.html Thu, 23 Feb 2012 00:47:26 GMT https://leanne.dreamwidth.org/20360.html Pimento. The word conjures up olives with pepper stuck in the location of the pit, no? Or perhaps another word for sweet pepper.

Pimento means <i>allspice</i>.<br /><br /><img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=leanne&ditemid=20360" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/> comments https://leanne.dreamwidth.org/20360.html i learned something cooking food okay public 0
