@brynn_ann: Sourdough Experiment: 1,000-Year-Old Starter vs. 1-Year-Old Starter The results are in! Both loaves were made with: • the same recipe • the same flour • the same process • the same bake time So… what did I learn? While I don’t believe this starter is actually 1,000 years old (there’s no way to verify that), there is scientific evidence that historic starters can survive and be passed down over generations. I’ll break that down in another video. With that being said, some companies market “historical” or “ancient” starters to make them sound more appealing or special. At the end of the day, great sourdough comes down to starter strength, not the age on the label. #sourdough #sourdoughstarter #sourdoughbaking #sourdoughbread #sourdoughtok
