This is my favorite Sourdough Hotcake Recipe. Add/replace Citrus Salt for regular salt for a more sour flavor.

my starter has been for 6 days. because I have very much sourdough so I decided to try pancake. I find it is amazing, porous soft. each grain bread inside the same as type "root bamboo". ("root bamboo" is the way we say about cakes furry structured stomata development vertical). I leave a few my starter, feeding and put in the fridge. Hmm nearly i'm weight gain so I think I should not eat starchy anymore.
