After about 3 minutes of intense research, I learned that this is common, but not why it happens.
The solution seems to be either throw it away and start again, or press on. If you press on, you must throw away most of it anyway, and keep feeding it and hope for the best. Someone mentioned adding yoghurt, so I did that. Now I'm hoping for the best.
If it doesn't come good by the weekend I will throw it away and start again.
Yesterday I added some yoghurt when I fed the starter, plus I stirred it throughout the day. These were two separate recommendations from my intensive we research.
ReplyDeleteThis morning the starter smells great! No more nail polish remover stink. I'm glad I didn't throw it out and start again.
OK it still stinks. Bye-bye starter. Can I be bothered starting again or will I go begging to Peter?
