Starter Gone Moldy
Hello,
I bought a sourdough starter and now it is covered in white mold. I cut off the outer edges of the dough to salvage what I could, but then found the white mold was also growing inside in any crevasse between the dough.
I have followed the instructions for feeding and maintaining a healthy sourdough starter.
Why has this happened? I know someone else that has the exact same stater and has been doing the same as I have and it is perfectly healthy and active.
It is very disappointing not to mention the time and money wasted as well!
Thanks
