Use fresh, single grain gluten-free flours

01

To ensure the BEST gluten-free sourdough starter, use a single grain gluten-free flour like brown or white rice, sorghum, and teff. Starches do not work.

Use non-chlorinated room temp tap water

02

By using non-chlorinated tap water at room temperature, you are giving your starter the BEST chance to grow

Don't seal the lid

03

You don't want to create a bomb which can be done with a sealed lid. Just gently place it on

Make sure to discard each day

04

Discarding each day gets rid of the sour "hooch" and keeps your starter from growing too large too fast

Keep your starter in a warm place

05

Keeping your starter in a warm place will help it grow and ferment faster

Be patient to let it ferment fully

06

Patience really is the hardest thing to have during this whole process but think slow to success...
