When I left WA State for Tennessee nearly a decade ago, I found it necessary to leave my beloved sourdough starter behind. A few years after settling here, I sent for another portion of your Classic Sourdough Starter to begin again. Well, that "begin" part was put on hold for I just don't know how long. Years, anyway. I found the starter in a jumble of pantry stuff last month, and only now have dared to take a peek/sniff... Hey there, Baby -- it looks okay to me! The small amount of liquid is brown, not pink. The aroma is nice and sour, nothing offensive about it. Could it be possible that this starter is still safe to use, despite my frivolous ways? Thanks in advance, Jody-Kat If it has been laying about for "years" pitch it. Frank @ KAF.
