If you make the mix, you ferment the yeast with the dough, adding vinegar and sour milk. You leave it for about a week in a warm place free of drafts, such as a dark cupboard. That is the starter.

SD is actually made with a yeast starter that can be very old, and yes, sour. It is not rotten, just aged well. SD is actually quite good in the form of biscuits and pancakes.

haha I believe it ferments (like wine) which gives it the sourness :)

lactic acid and acetic acid from the combination of lactobaccilli and yeast.

It sounds disgusting, so I've never tasted it. If something smells, tastes, looks or even sounds nasty, I just won't try it.
