PJ - Just a quick note to let you know I tried the sourdough Ciabatta (no banter for that recipe), and it worked out well. They came out a little rounder, and the holes were not quite as large as I hoped for, but everyone thought they were delicious and very light. They had a great sourdough flavor. I may try the more whole grain type in the other recipes, but with my starter of course. I can't seem to make anything without the starter these days. The best use for the starter you may need to remove when feeding (not a problem for me as often, as I make a few different breads each time) is to feed it and give it to a friend with a printout from KAF on starter care and the rustic loaf recipe. The more of us using the starter the better, the more we learn. Thanks - Ron Indeed, Ron - sourdough is a GREAT thing to share. Thanks for passing it forward. And kudos on your successful experiments! PJH
