Esther is a slightly soupy, yet tacky, sourdough starter, off white. She is happier when used regularly, she gets sad when she gets lost in the back of the fridge. When fed regularly Esther rises quickly to the occasion and adds a distinctly sour/fruity taste to the bread. She works well with others, loves to pair with fruity yeast waters, & enjoys the addition of freshly fermented grains.
