My first attempt:
Used my bread maker on dough only setting. Made a receipe like french bread except I substituted 1/2 cup of water for 1/2 cup sourdough starter.
result- looked good
taste- NOT SOUR, TASTED LIKE FRENCH BREAD!
Dissapointed in the flavour. Did more reading. Need to go for a slow rise to develop the sour flavour. The concern I have about using my breadmaker is the metal container. I have read sourdough should not be put in a metal container to rise. That is why I still used yeast as well as sourdough starter. The bread rose so fast once I shaped it into the loaves. They doubled in size in half an hour.
I will try again, next time without the bread maker.
