Why such an unrounded mass if it’s a 1:1:1 ratio?

Here is the final part in how to start your sourdough starter from scratch! In this video, I go over how to care for your starter once it’s ready! For easy access to this series, I have a full playlist here on my channel! I did have to split some videos into multiple parts because of the 1 minute time limit! Here are some tips to remember when feeding your starter: 1. Continue to use filtered water and unbleached all purpose flour! In the winter time, I like to warm up my water just a little bit until it’s lukewarm. This can help your starter use quicker in cold weather! 2. Weather and temperature could cause your starter to rise quicker or slower. This means your starter could take more or less than 3-4 hours to rise and be active. 3. Your starter can stay for quite some time in the fridge. If you aren’t using your starter, put it in the fridge! If you leave it out on the counter for a long time, it will die!
