Got talking bread and #sourdough with my SO's cousin during our travels, and she expressed enthusiasm at getting some of my rye starter "Gary" to try. So I've ramped up my starter and it's nicely happy today.

Will dry it out and send it along with rehydration instructions.

Some smears of starter on waxed paper and now I'll let it dry for a day or two.

Oh hey, if anyone is enthusiastic to get a bit of unique #sourdough starter tuned to work on #ryeFlour, I'd be happy to send some to you. I'll cover the postage.

(You'd have to private msg your address to me though, which you prob don't want to do to with some bread-obsessed rando on the internet. )

If you do get some though, I'd love to see your baking results.

This is my "Stewart" starter which is very happy today. It's happiest with white or brown flour.

It'll be used for my attempt at ciabatta. Watch this space.

@ottaross I've been watching but nothing is happening. Is this a video?
@Aussiemandias lol – it's bubbling very actively, but only when you're not looking.
