Hey, fam. If you haven’t fed your sourdough starter in a while because [gestures at everything] reasons… I’m telling you it’s fine. This bish been languishing for months in the back of my fridge.

Take a minute to open the container. Unless you have pink streaks, active mold fuzz on top of the goo, or it smells like the Bog of Eternal Stench instead of just very sour dough… in the words of Granny Weatherwax, she “Aten’t Dead Yet.”

If you need some help perking up your carb-childe, holler and we’ll walk you through it.

If it’s dead-dead, throw the whole thing in the bin. You don’t need that kind of dead weight right now.

But if you’re ready to being home a new Bready Mercury or Breadgitte Bardough, I’ll bet someone near you has some discard looking for a new home.
