This sourdough bread is the best. Makes great french toast and is so good with just butter or jam. The recipes I used is from Piney, I believe. I got it many years ago and is my most requested bread.

Thanks for looking.

I will post reciepe tomorrow morning
Does this look like it:

1/2-cup sugar
1 cup Starter
1/2-cup oil
1-1/2 cups warm water
1-1/2 teaspoons salt
6 cups Bread Flour

1. Mix all ingredients in large glass or plastic bowl (use whatever you have). Dough should be fairly stiff.

2. Grease another very large bowl. Put dough in and turn over to put oiled side up.

3. Cover with plastic wrap and let set at room temperature overnight. Punch down dough and knead a few times. Divide dough into 2 equal parts. Knead each part on a floured board about 10 times. Place each portion in greased glass loaf pan (spraying pans lightly with cooking spray works well). Stretch dough over bottom of pan. Brush top of loaves with oil. Cover with plastic wrap or bag. Let rise at room temperature until dough bulges slightly above tops of loaf pans.

4. Bake at 350F for 25 minutes, or until loaf golden brown all over.

5. Remove from pans, brush with butter and cool on racks.


This how you make the starter:

1 pkg. Active Dry yeast (2-1/4 teaspoons or about 7g)
1-1/2 cups warm water
3/4 cup sugar
3 tablespoons instant potato flakes

Use a plastic container with several air slits in lid. Mix yeast with 1/2 cup of the warm water. Combine sugar, remaining 1 cup of warm water, and potato flakes. Stir. Add yeast mixture, stirring again. Let mixture stand all day. Refrigerate that night.


FEEDING STARTER

After 3-7 days, remove from refrigerator and feed with the following:

3/4 cup sugar
3 Tablespoons Instant Potatoes
1 cup warm water

Mix well with wooden or plastic spoon. Let stand out of refrigerator 8-12 hrs. (Does not rise, only bubbles.) Take out 1 cup to make bread and return remainder to refrigerator 3-7 days and feed again. (If not making bread after feeding discard 1 cup or give to a friend).

I got this recipe from a member here years ago. I believe it was Piney, but not sure, I may have tweaked it a tad for me.

Close, I posted mine
 
Is that a regular sourdough starter that is made with half flour and half water or the one that is more liquid made with sugar?

I have never seen that one. Going to have to give a try. Thanks
Flour and water. I made this starter using a king author recipe from internet. Feed it every day type of thing.

My wife loves this bread and requests it often.
