Crumpets

This is essentially a delicious way to eat fermented sourdough starter. I don’t think I had eaten a crumpet for twenty years before making my own and don’t think I would ever eat another again unless they were home made. There are many good recipes around and sourdough makes them especially delicious.

Eat the crumpets fresh from the pan or allow to cool and toast them. They might not be quite so spongy as the supermarket version but the flavour is much better and they soak up butter
