Hi,
I was visiting my Mother in Denver last week and found the Fleischmans
sourdough / yeast packets.. The cost is $3.00 for 3 packets.. has anyone
tried using their pre packaged sourdough mix in a home starter so that
you don't have to keep buying the stuff?? I thought Fleischmans has done a
good job with the flavor : )
Let me know what you think about trying the following:

good sour aroma. Starter should be kept in the refrigerator after
this five day period.

bubly again before using it.
6. Replenish starter after each use with equal portions of milk and
flour. Example: If using 1 1/2 cups add 1 1/2 cups each: milk & flour.
7. Repeat steps 1, 2, and 3.
