Hi Ben,

RH> years of bronchitis and pneumonia). Doing better now so maybe I'll make
RH> a pizza some time next week. Maybe once we get our sourdough revived
RH> (froze it before travel), I'll do a sourdough crust--have done so before
RH> with whole wheat flour and it is good.

BC> Welcome back from Alaska.  Great that you are doing better.  I did not
BC> know about freezing starter to put it on pause.  I will experiment
BC> with that.

We've frozen/successfully thawed sourdough I don't know how many times.
It's a good way to store a back up in case something happens to your
working starter or, in our case, a move.


BC> While reading an outdoors book, i read a reference to old Forest
BC> Service Lookout cookbooks.  Below is a link to online versions.  They
BC> mention
BC> that a regular diet of quick bread (such as biscuits, pancakes, etc.)
BC> is not wholesome, and that sourdough is healthier.

I've seen (don't remember if Steve bought me a copy) one of the books,
maybe an anniversary edition? We're away from home now so I can't walk
over to the shelves to check. (G)
