My sourdough starter was tragically thrown away during my recent move. I’m working on getting over it! I had a jar of discard in my freezer that I thawed and have been trying to revive! I’m 2 days into the 12 hour feeding cycle and I’m seeing only 4-5 bubbles and no growth yet. Is reviving unfed discard possible? It smells… odd. Not alcoholic, not quite vinegary, not quite rotten. I’m going to keeping working on it but wondering if it will be worth it!
