I have read to feed your starter once a day or twice a day, I have done both works either way for me. I have put my starter in the fridge so I only need to do weekly or bi-weekly feedings, I did this after 3 weeks of daily feeding.<br /><br />also the pineapple juice is for the yeast to grow and mold not to grow.<br /><br />referenced http://www.thefreshloaf.com/node/233Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12088205.post-1160889999623828712006-10-15T18:26:00.000+13:002006-10-15T18:26:00.000+13:00Brilliant present that starter, got a loaf of sour...Brilliant present that starter, got a loaf of sourdough in the over right at the moment! The pancakes are a great way to use some of the starter when it needs to be fed and you don't need bread.Emmahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04239687384235518507noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12088205.post-1160497159455340772006-10-11T05:19:00.000+13:002006-10-11T05:19:00.000+13:00Those pancakes look so wonderfully fluffy.
