Mold on Starter
Hello! I hope everyone is having a great day.
We recently had to leave for a week to go to North Carolina. For the first time, I put my 4 month old sourdough starter in the fridge. Came home and it looks alright but it formed a thick, dry layer on top, and the very top of that had a tiny patch or two of mold. I scraped it out and threw the mold out since I can't give it feed until morning. Is this normal? Do I need to throw my starter out with the mold?
