Clarification needed #212

Closed cedounet closed 10 months ago

cedounet commented 10 months ago

In sourdough-starter/sourdough-starter.tex around line 173

"But only the fittest microbes fitting the sourdough's niche are going to survive."

Is that niche or needs ?

Also, aoround line 239:

"I\~also frequently dry it and use it as a rolling agent for pizzas that I\~am making"

What is a rolling agent?

Let me know.. I am rewording that chapter a bit so i can fix it while at it.

@hendricius any input?

Thanks

@cedounet - sorry, these days have been busy.

  1. That is correct. The microbes that are most adapt to fermenting flour win and will outcompete the others.

  2. Maybe rolling agent isn't a good word? I use the dried sourdough starter on my pizza peel. It helps that the pizza does not get stuck in the peel.

Not being native I can't really be 100% sure...

hendricius commented 10 months ago

@cedounet then I think it's okay. I had a couple of native speakers look over this :-)
