I’m bringing sourdough back!
Everyone should have some starter in their fridge. It’s so easy and makes THE BEST pancakes. And bread. And biscuits. And chocolate cake.
It’s hard to believe that I never made pancakes before last year. Ever! I never made them on my own before we got married, and even when we made them together, I was never the one actually cooking them.
Thank goodness it’s an easy skill to master
