Tartine Starter Day 3

Starter Day 3

As my Tartine Bread obsession continues, I've been diligently feeding my starter. Day 3 brought the stinky smell that Chad Roberts describes in his book. Somehow though, that stinky smell did not keep the kitten away as I attempted to photograph the starter.

I removed 80% of the starter and added equal amounts of the flour mixture and lukewarm water. I gently mixed them all together by hand until the lumps were gone.

Starter Remixed Day 3

The starter is back resting, growing and forming. At this point, you start feeding the starter everyday around the same time. I've been feeding my starter in the morning.
