Sourdough Summer : When to push pause

 

Sourdough discard waffles.

A couple of weeks ago I pushed pause on my sourdough starter. I fed it and put in my refrigerator, and it sat unfed for 2 weeks. Guess what it revived just fine. In the past I would have tried to keep up with it but sometimes you have to know your own limits. 

I was lucky to receive some dried starter this spring from my best friend. This is always an option. I love she took these through security at the airport.

Here is a link to someone who froze their starter.  LINK - I think this might be a good option too.
