Cookie, I am going to give this a go this weekend.  I spoke to Chookie on Saturday night and she explained the process to me and it sounds great.  I also always thought you had to have a rye starter so was shocked when Chookie used other flour for the starter.  Looking forward to seeing the final result.  Chookie thanks for sharing your knowledge with us all - I learnt a lot from you.

Cookie,  I can't wait.  It looks perfect,  and so easy.   Any Melb,  VIC  members,  I can make arrangements with you to have some free starter.  You can come to me or I may be able to leave some with my son and daughter in law in Melb.  Will have to ask them.  PM me if interested.

Cookie,  it is fine to mix methods.  Whatever works is  OK.

Well here it is. I won't cut it as it's very hot. I'm pleased with the way it looks. Next time I will use some rye flour in it.

Kezza do you have some starter?

Dear Chookie, thank you for that. I didn't want to offend you by using your starter in a weird way. Xx

Yes I do thanks Cookie.  Mine is a rye sourdough starter.  Your loaf looks amazing.
