anyone have a recipe using unfed starter?
I have a highly demanding 1-year-old. The ability to make a levain (especially a multi-stage levain) is usually a limiting factor in my sourdough bread production. I'm wondering if anybody has a good sourdough recipe (for actual sourdough bread, not like muffins or something) using unfed starter. I'm not picky (well, I am, but not in this case). It can be highly acidic a la SF or sweet and creamy (probably not likely in this case) like the French love. I'm just looking for a flavorful bread. Anybody got a recipe/method for that?
I noticed Reinhart says it's okay to use unfed starter as long as it was fed recently in Bread Baker's Apprentice. But I'm apprehensive and looking for a little more guidance.
