You may wonder: "what exactly is Amish friendship bread?"

The easiest answer is that it is a quick bread made with a sourdough starter. It is shared - maybe distributed is a better word - like the chain letters you get in your e-mail...you get it from a friend and send it to x more friends. In the case of Amish friendship bread the number of friends you need to share it with is usually three.

From the research I did, no one seems to know how this sourdough bread got the Amish name pasted on it! The Amish traditionally do make friendship bread but that is just a bread given to the needy or the sick.

I guess some romantic person liked the sound of "Amish friendship bread." I must admit it does have a nice ring to it. No matter how this bread got its name this is a very good sourdough bread which has a lot of versatility.

Also from this simple starter you can make many Amish bread recipes. I will give you the original instructions. Then, if I may, I will give you my variations.

I will also give you the way I handle this sourdough starter so that I don't produce so much of it as to fill a swimming pool - or to alienate my friends!

I am no expert and do not have all the answers...so as always all your tips, comments and recipes are welcome!
