Now, I know sourdough isn't good for diabetics. Check. But, that
is using certain, often white, flour. Unbleached makes little
difference. Whole wheat does, but... it is a bit heavy on it's
own. Flax, coconut, almond, and a few other flours might work?
Imagine, say, a coconut flour bread, leavened with einkorn sourdough.
Get it? Why no experiments in that area.
The sourdough starter is going have almost no carbs. The yeasts will eat
those... yeast, yeasts, and bacteria? Essentially, that is a
fermentation process. So... why not use that to create lift, and flavor,
in other types of bread? My guess is because sourdough starter is a bit
beastly to keep live and going. It really is. Feeding at least
weekly, culling some of it from time to time, juggling that with every other
fermentation, and... it happens, starting with "sh".
Still, I am considering starting again. Oh, as to the excess? As I
begin making waffles, various keto breads, pancakes, and even (potentially
fully from excess starter) dumplings in my various soups, I could take care of
that excess. Heck, maybe make little keto sourdough donuts or
such? There is plenty to try. So I went looking. And
found... a woman who pretty much... has gone there.
Now, I don't know about diabetes, whether this will work for that. But I
think it will. There is only one way to find out. Oh, I'll still
fall, fail, go off the cart. That... I've... I know. I
understand. But, the longer and better I can stay on the wagon, the
better. And things like this might make that a whole lot easier.
Assuming I can keep up. A boy can dream.
Oh, I still have einkorn. Some of it has been sprouted. It is...
rather old. Still? I... may try beginning that tonight.
Ugh. Later.
