A few weeks ago a friend of mine tried making sourdough from a mix of kefir milk and flour and it work well!  So I decided to give it a try to. 

Mix together 1 cup kefir milk and 1 cup whole wheat flour.  Cover and let sit for about 4 days, each day stir it.  By the fourth day you’ll see it starting to separate and get runnier.  Add 1 cup of water (not chlorinated) and 1 cup of flour.  Let it sit over night.  Once it’s bubbling nicely it’s ready to use. 

Use in any of your sourdough recipes.

This worked very well for me.  The only problem I had was none of us are used to the strong sour taste.  I may try adding more sweetener to it and see how we like it.
