HERMAN SOURDOUGH STARTER
This is a recipe for a sweet sourdough starter known as Herman. There are a number of things that can be made from it. It's very important to NOT use metal utensils or bowls! It will take 15 days for the starter to mature and be ready to use the first time you make it. After that it can be ready for use every 10 days.

Steps:
- combine all ingredients to a smooth batter in a 2-quart glass or ceramic container (no metal). Cover with cheesecloth or other loose covering, and keep in a warm place (around 80 degrees F) for 3 to 4 days to ferment. It should expand and bubble. When ready it should have a yeasty, slightly sour smell.
- At this point, this is Herman's "First Day" in the ten-day cycle of Herman Life. He's ready for his first feeding.
- Feeding Herman: Mix together 1 cup flour, 1 cup milk, and 1/2 cup sugar. Stir this into Herman, cover loosely, and place in the fridge. It will be lumpy. Stir daily (but if you forget a day, he'll be fine).
- In five days, you'll need to feed him again. (Day 5).
- In five more days (Day 10), you'll feed him again and/or use him to make something. Pay attention to the specific recipe to see whether you feed him just before making the item or afterwards.
- Herman can be used for biscuits, coffeecake, pancakes, cookies, banana bread, sweet rolls, and more. I believe the recipes I have have been handed down from one Herman owner to another for decades. Hope you enjoy!
Tips:
- Activate the Yeast Properly: Ensure the water is between 105-115°F (40-46°C) to activate the yeast effectively.
- Proof the Dough Twice: Proofing allows the dough to rise and develop flavor. Cover the dough tightly and let it rise in a warm place for 1-2 hours, or until doubled in size. Punch down the dough and let it rise again for another 30-60 minutes.
- Shape the Rolls Properly: Roll the dough out into a 12x18 inch (30x45 cm) rectangle. Spread the softened butter evenly over the dough, leaving a 1-inch (2.5 cm) border at the top. Sprinkle the cinnamon sugar mixture evenly over the butter. Starting from the bottom, roll the dough up tightly into a log. Pinch the seam to seal it. Cut the log into 12 equal pieces.
- Bake at the Right Temperature: Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) before baking the rolls. This ensures they bake evenly and develop a golden-brown crust.
- Glaze the Rolls: While the rolls are still warm, brush them with a simple glaze made of powdered sugar and milk. This adds a touch of sweetness and shine to the rolls.
