I have followed your starter recipe with great success. My results are identical to yours. <BR/>I will soon be making a firm starter. I have a question about the ingredients for the bread dough. Does the recipe call for 1 lb + 4.5 oz flour or just 1 lb flour? The volume measurements are throwing me off. If flour weight is 1 lb + 4.5 oz, volume should be 5 cups, if it is 1 lb flour, volume should 4 cups, right? Your blog says 4.5 cups flour.<BR/><BR/>Appreciate any feedback.<BR/>Artisan.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33168922.post-71396287711348047352007-08-14T10:39:00.000-07:002007-08-14T10:39:00.000-07:00oh, oh I wish I had flour right now!

These are good for a few uses at least. I'll be trying to give the bag a rinse and hang it somewhere to dry when I'm done with it. These came in a pack of 4 and I'm hoping to get quite a bit of use out of each. Now I just have to keep my fingers crossed that the sourdough starter wasn't too young yet for making bread...guess I'll find out in less than a day (I'm a terrible insomniac, which explains my being up still at 3am-ish).Jen the Bread Freakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09620504757724896039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33168922.post-11970410868500789062007-08-10T23:54:00.000-07:002007-08-10T23:54:00.000-07:00I've seen those bags at Ace Hardware, and they're ...I've seen those bags at Ace Hardware, and they're described as being for Sports - as in, people but balls & shin-guards and such in them.<BR/><BR/>Great idea! I always end up using these long lengths of plastic wrap ... and feeling guilty because they really aren't being used, so much, you know?David T.
