1 c Cake starter
-STARTER FOOD-
1 c Milk
1 c Flour, self-raising
1 c Sugar
CAKE
2 c Flour, self-raising
1 c Sugar
2/3 c Oil
2 ts Cinnamon
2 ts Vanilla extract
2 Eggs
1/2 c Raisins
1/2 c Nuts (or other fruits)
15 oz Pineapple chunks,
-drained (one can)
PREPARE STARTER:
Day 1: Blend the starter feed together, and then hand mix in the
starter. I find it easiest to mix the flour and sugar together dry,
add the milk to the starter, and then slowly add the flour and sugar
to the liquid. The starter should never be beaten with a blender or
refrigerated. Pour the mixture into a large bowl, cover with
cling-film or a damp towel, and leave to brew.
Day 2: Thoroughly mix the sourdough, then leave to brew again.
Day 5: As day 1
Day 6: As day 2
Day 10: Print off three copies of this recipe. Here now is why this
is called a friendship cake. Take 3 cups of Sourdough mixture, and
give them away with copies of the recipe as starters to your friends.
Then proceed with the baking.
MAKING THE CAKE: Blend all ingredients thoroughly with remaining
starter. Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees F. Pour mixture into a
well-greased baking tin. Bake for 1 3/4 hours (less in a fan oven),
cool.
NOTES:
* A 10-day Sourdough cake — This is known as the friendship cake,
it’s a bit like a chain letter in that you have to find a set of
friends to pass on the starter to.
During preparation put the starter into a very large bowl (it foams
up), and cover with a lid or with cling film. Yield: Starter and one
cake.
* If you don’t get cake starter from a friend, you can probably buy
it in a baking supply store.
* Vary the spices to taste. The cake is quite pleasant if you forget
them.
: Difficulty: easy.
: Time: 10 days brewing starter, 30 minutes preparing cake, 2 hours
baking and cooling.
: Precision: measure the ingredients.
