My husband's aunt gave me a sourdough starter shortly after our marriage. That was 44 YEARS ago. I've kept and used the starter since, but have always kept a back-up in the freezer, just in case. Once I tried drying a cup of it, but used my food dehydrater at lowest setting, so that probably ruined it as well. Thanks for this info... I will definitely try it out! Oh, when his aunt gave us the starter, she said that it was then 150 years old, and had been back and forth to Sweden several times. It uses milk rather than water and makes the best french bread ever. Thanks again!
