San Francisco sourdough starter and Carl's starter
San Francisco sourdough starter and Carl's starter
Hello
A friend on another ng recommended I post here with my query about
sourdough starter and Carl's starter. Three or four years ago, a poster
from uk.food+drink.misc sent me some San Francisco starter and also
mentioned 'Carl's starter'. Gradually, the starter changed and became
'London starter'. Can anyone please tell me where I can obtain San
Francisco starter? Many thanks in advance.

could pick it up from me somewhere. I work in Marylebone if that would
be convenient. Wrtie to me off list.

Hello June!
What's the problem with using your London starter?
I made my starter to an American recipe after sarah sent me some which
eventually died. I'm sure mine is now a Yorkshire one - but it works
perfectly well.
The directions I used explained that starters are affected by you and your
local conditions. Now I know that some here don't agree with that but it
makes sense to me :-)

Hi Mary. I didn't know you posted here. My starter used to make nice
bread with a good crust and lots of holes in it. The bread now comes
out a bit heavier and is chewier. Still OK but not as much to my liking
as it was.

You can write me directly, substitute . com for .invalid and I'll send a
template with directions on where to send a SASE. I'm in the geographic
center of SF. I send doughballs around frequently; and the ones that
have gone to the UK have made it intact.
