This robust gluten-free starter combines white rice flour for its mild flavor and bouncy texture, which adapts well to many gluten-free bread recipes, and teff flour, which brings an earthy, almost wheat-like flavor to doughs, and a high protein content that helps build structure in bread. It needs a full week of feeding to become active before it will properly leaven bread.
