Is it OK to start a sourdough starter in a stainless steel mixing bowl?
All the mixing bowls I have are stainless steel, and I currently have a sourdough starter started in one. Is this ok? I plan on storing it in a crock when in the fridge, and not in a metal container.
Yes, stainless mixing bowl is fine. Is there a reason you didn't use a glass jar like a canning jar? That way you could see the rise and fall so you know when to feed it, see the hooch so you know that the little beasties have used all their nourishment
If you are interested in sourdough starter making or sourdough bread, this is the place for you!
