Sourdough starter
Bread
Tip
Unlike traditional sourdough starters, you do not need to stir or agitate this starter. This starter is ready when it's increased in size and looks aerated (you can see small bubbles). In warmer climates, it might take less than 3 days for starter to be ready (we suggest checking once each day). The starter has not fermented properly if it's hard or firm all the way through (it may have a hard crust on top, but that can be removed and starter underneath used).
Use lefterover starter to make another loaf. You can store the starter in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.

Recipe is created for
TM 5
If you are using a Thermomix® TM6 measuring cup with your Thermomix® TM5:
For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl.Please note that the TM5 mixing bowl has a larger capacity than the TM31 (capacity of 2.2 liters instead of 2.0 liters for TM 31). Recipes for the Thermomix TM5 may not be cooked with a Thermomix TM31 for safety reasons without adjusting the quantities. Risk of scalding by spraying of hot liquids: Do not exceed the maximum filling quantity and observe the filling level markings of the mixing bowl!

I can’t see why not I would.
Very pleased with my baked bread. It Had body with a crusty coating. Just like the photo! Will be making again just need to plan ahead with fermenting the yeast. (Took less than three days to ferment n formed a coating which I removed)😊 Tku for the recipe.
Could you use wholemeal spelt flour instead of baker's flour.
Thanks Carol.
