Since 2020

I’ve started before but because the process took so long, i often did not have time to maintain a starter. But since the pandemic happened, I now have all the time in the world.

Characteristics

Pateirick had a slow start, but was wonderfully consistent once he got going. He’s not too fussy when it comes to maintenance but will slow down activity if neglected for too long. Patrick was born from APF and still performs best when fed with it + a little bread flour. Doesn’t do too well with whole grains & rye. But makes great artisanal loaves, soft rolls & doughnuts. The taste is very mild.

Recipe

Starting ingredients

  • 30g All purpose flour
  • 20g Bread flour
  • 50g Purified water
  • 50g Yakult

Feeding ingredients

1
Measure out water in a stainless steel bowl, add starter, stir, add flour, stir until well incorporated, transfer to plastic container. Set in room temp until next feeding. But if not baking, starter is stored in fridge. Taken out for 4 consecutive feedings before use.

Working method

1
Patrick was born during the pandemic using the only flour I had on hand. Grocery store all purpose flour. Patrick is pretty stable but has subtle reactions and changes when the weather changes. The flavor of the bread made from Patrick is very mild and subtle.
