Wholegrain bread
Chef Emma highlighted that a starter can be kept for a longer period of time in the fridge? Should it be refrigerated or put in the freezer prior feeding it for use in the long run?

To freeze is the best method to conserve bread. Even gluten is getting broken when freeze

Hi Sharon.
Welcome to the Scoolinary community!
Chef Emma is right, sourdough can be stored for a longer time in the refrigerator. As for freezing, it’s not necessary if you plan to use it within a few weeks, as the refrigerator is enough to keep it active and healthy.
If you want to store it for a longer period, freezing is a great option. You can divide the sourdough into small portions before freezing, which makes it easier to reactivate when you need it. Just make sure to let it thaw in the refrigerator, and after a couple of days, feed it with flour and water to revive it.
In summary:
For short or medium-term use, refrigerate the sourdough.
For long-term storage (several weeks or months), you can freeze it.
We hope this information is helpful.
Best regards.
