"starter" uses.
I went through the process from BBA for making a starter and then left it in the fridge for several weeks if not months. Reread how to refresh an old starter and dumped all but a cup of the starter and added 4 cups bread flour and 2 1/2 cups warm tap water and set on the counter overnight. Nothing happend and so let it go another night. When nothing happend I put it in the fridge and there it sits. So now I have around 6 cups of flour, water and a starter I am not sure will do anything to such a large addition.
What if anything should I do with this. Simply make something with it like a sandwich loaf or lavosh? If so do I add commercial yeast? Or just send it to the scrap pile and focus on the rye starter of wich I am on day 3.
