One of the things I'd like to do from now on is sourdough bread, and according to what I hear, the best way to accomplish this is to capture the wild sourdough yeast.

After reading up on how to do that from multiple websites, today I gathered all the needed bait, and prepared the snare.

Below is the whole grain flour, and pineapple juice, which was mixed up in the proper way to make the environment most conducive to the elusive sourdough yeast bugs.


The "mash" ready for the bugs.  I don't really expect this to work the first time, and it takes about a week to know it the right yeast is growing, but you got to start somewhere.  On the other hand, if i can get the starter going, supposedly you can keep it for years as long as you feed it periodically.

How to do it yourself here.  

The adventure begins....
