Rustic Sourdough Noodles

This delicious noodle recipe is from the Cultures for Health site, though the same recipe is also on The Nourished Kitchen site, and that one has lots of helpful comments. These noodles are thick, chewy, and delicious, plus they are another great way to use your never-ending sourdough starter. If you prefer your noodles less ‘rustic', feel free to use a pasta machine. This recipe requires an 8 hour or overnight proof, so I recommend putting it together the night before you want to eat them....

Sourdough Rosemary Crackers

Does it seem like craziness to make your own crackers? These crackers are easy and very tasty, and a great way to use excess sourdough starter. They are also a good excuse to make bacon (don’t burn it!) or discover lard. This recipe is based on the Sourdough Bacon Rosemary Crackers recipe from Cultures for Health. Ingredients: 1½ cups fresh sourdough starter ¾ teaspoon or so sea salt, plus more to sprinkle on top 1 tablespoon or so rosemary, either fresh and finely chopped, or dried and r...

Sourdough Waffles

This recipe is based on a very nice recipe on the Cultures for Health site. It is an easy and satisfying way to use your sourdough starter. These waffles are moist, tasty, a little bit tangy, and great for breakfast or lunch (as sandwich bread!) or an anytime snack. Freeze the extras, and then toast whenever you want one. I have a "defrost" button on my toaster, which is very handy. Ingredients/preparation: Preheat waffle maker. In a mixing bowl, combine: 2 cups sourdough starter 1 tables...

Sourdough Crepes

Crepes are pretty easy to make (especially if you don't mind what they look like), though they take some time, since they are cooked a one-at-a-time. They are also a very handy use of ‘discarded’ starter (what you need to take out before feeding). They keep well for a few days in the fridge, and can be served almost ANY WAY. For a sweet treat, spread/fill with jam, berries, whipped cream, syrup, chocolate, honey, cinnamon and sugar, etc. For savory, optionally omit the sweetener in the crep...

Sourdough Crumpets

Quick, easy, tasty, convenient and versatile! Also, dairy free/vegan. :) Crumpets are somewhere between a pancake and an english muffin. Make extra and put them in the fridge or freezer, as they are best toasted. With a little extra honey and added cinnamon, they are a lovely morning treat. Without the cinnamon, they can be eaten anytime, any way! This recipe is based on the one from Cultures for Health. Note: You will need ‘special equipment’ for these. I bought these metal english muffin r...

Sourdough Pancakes

Here is a sourdough pancake recipe [mostly] from What's Cooking America, perfect for using up starter (you might want to bulk up your starter just for this). The batter is a little goopy, so tricky to get onto the griddle without making a mess--but worth it! The texture is excellent. I made these pancakes recently with 3 cups starter and two eggs, and bumped up the other ingredients by about half. I had plenty left over for the freezer. Pop them in the toaster (or just let them thaw) and they...
