I've tried making a sourdough starter before, but I just don't make bread often enough to make it worthwhile. I think you are also properly supposed to make a rye-specific starter as the culture that is optimal for rye grains is different than a wheat culture. On the other hand, this recipe doesn't use a sourdough starter at all. I'm skeptical the end result would be correct, but the picture looks pretty much spot on.
