I’ve been getting some questions asking what consistency a sourdough starter should have. The rule is to always add the same weight of water and flour… and this should keep your starter at the correct consistency. I decided to make a video of my starter, falling off a spoon, to give you an idea of how ‘thick’ it is. If yours is much thinner than mine, then add some flour… if you are not sure then carry on using it and always adding the same amount of water and flour… it will always tend towards the correct thickness.
