JUNIPER BERRY SOURDOUGH STARTER
Take about a dozen juniper berries and make sure they have a glabrous (smooth, no hairs), the milky-white coating is yeast. If you rub on the berry you will see it is green underneath.

Put the juniper berries in a jar with a cup of flour and a cup of warm water and loosely cover. Let rest for a week on the kitchen counter. After a week, remove the berries and add a cup of warm milk and another cup of flour. Stir and let set for a day or two. You now have a great sourdough start. Store your start in the refrigerator and add to it after use.
Use the juniper berry sourdough starter with your favorite sourdough recipe.
