Patiently Baking I

Mariya is completely stressed out! She thought making her own starter would be easy. It’s just flour and water mixed together and fed over time. Although, she did add a little pineapple juice to make the starter more acidic. But the yeast are supposed to love that! Her neighbor said the starter should be ready by now, but it doesn’t smell very good and it isn’t bubbling and rising like her neighbor’s does. Mariya thinks she messed something up, but she has no idea what it could be.

Mariya has never felt so defeated at something cooking related. She just wanted to start making some fresh bread everyday. Why is this so hard?

Will you bring Mariya some fresh bread to drown her failure in?

(Hint: The bread is in Thomas's Tavern Tote which is available at Cecil's Curios in Town)
