Any Home Bakers Here?

It just so happens that I had a sourdough starter out to feed and make a sponge later. Crumpet breakfast sandwich.
 
How did you like it? It looks wonderful!
I like crumpets anyway and these are superior to the yeast version I've made in the past. We both agreed they needed an egg with a runny yolk, a little less bacon and probably skip the cheese. I have another starter to feed tomorrow so we'll try again.
 
I just read an article about a bakery that uses sourdough for everything and feeds it 3 times a day to reduce the sourdough flavor. Me, I'm not a huge fan of sourdough tang in bread, so I may try that at some point. Maybe not feed it that much all the time, but feed it the night before, then at least once in the morning before using it again to reduce it some.

I do like crumpets and think they would make good pancakes, so I could save the extra starter from those 2 feeds and make pancakes with the extra starter.

Kusanar, When I first tasted Sourdough Bread...IT WAS NOT MY FAVORITE...you do acquire a taste for it. And you can Feed and change
tang sourdough taste. I now love it. All breads for ME are Sourdough.
You need to WORK with it. I know it is Healthy For Me. I do use Honey, and Whey Protein Powder in my Breads. ..and different Flours..
but it is always Sourdough...with just right amount of Sourdough Tang.
