I just started today, the 2:1 flour to water ratio seemed really dry to me. I’m using a locally (to me) grown einkorn flour. I’m assuming that if my mix is too dry (not moving at all) then it’s okay to add enough water to make it at least move a bit as you’ve shown in the video?
I went to your blog to print the sourdough recipe as instructed and there is no sourdough recipe to print! Can you tell me what I need to do, please? Thanks so much.
Yes so you want to scroll to the very bottom, where there is a “recipe card” that lists all the steps for the starter. There is a button at the top, under the title and description, that says PRINT. Let me know if that makes sense!
My starter is on the runny side.I use 1/2 cup (60 grams ) of local, whole grain einkorn flour that I mill at home and 1/4 cup filtered water ( also 60 grams).
@@TheDuvallHomestead Thank you.I wish I could eat it, but I have celiac. My kids said it tastes great, just like an artisan sourdough bread they had în Europe.
When you say you use all purpose flour to make bread with your einkorn sour dough starter are you talking about white flour or einkorn to make the loaf?
@@TheDuvallHomestead I’ll give it a try, thank you! I tried the recipe that Jovial has on TH-cam and my dough hasn’t done anything. It’s just like a lump of dough and it’s been over a week 😭
@@mckcustomvinyldesignllc3645 oh okay. Yes you can use fresh milled for this! You may have to adjust the water amount just slightly if it has a different consistency than my flour, but it’ll work great!
Can you send me a pdf of your recipe, but chance? There are so many as on the recipe it ended up being a seven page document and very hard too followed because the instructions are interrupted by ads!
Hi, I began the process with a different brand of flour and it started to bubble after the second feeding. by Day 2 in the afternoon it was beautiful, but then on day 3 after feeding it deflated and became creamy with almost no bubbles... I kept up discarding/feeding it for 13 days, but nothing else happened, it remained creamy. :(
@@JoseViana-sw2li that means it’s just hungry! Keep it in the fridge if you’re not using it. It will eat faster in the warm weather too. Does it inflate before it deflates?
@@TheDuvallHomestead it inflates on day 2 and less on day 3 when it deflates then it won't rise again. I have used almost all the 5lb-flour with two different methods. Starts awesome and then, plop.
@@JoseViana-sw2li it sounds like its sitting too long without food. If you’re seeing it double in size, you should use it in a recipe and then put the rest in the fridge. Only take it out at room temp and feed it before you plan on using it.
@@TheDuvallHomestead Thank you! I fed it every 12 hrs and I thought the starter should "mature" for a few days before using it. I guess then it is a super grain that gets ready fast. I'll let you know the progress with a new starter. Thank you!
Go to the blog post (theduvallhomestead.com/einkorn-sourdough-starter/), scroll down to the very bottom and there’s a printable recipe card. You’ll see the PRINT button! No email required.
@@TheDuvallHomestead I'm so frustrated. It ended up downloading anyway. So now at the top of my lap top screen is the Easy Recipes Search tap. WTH!!!!! I went to the bottom of your page and clicked on the print recipe.
@@TheDuvallHomestead Every time a choose continue to recipe or view recipe it sends me to the same place to download an ap. I can't get it to work. Your page is full of print recipe and it doesn't work. Very frustrating.
@@julieten2774 okay, what you’re seeing must be an ad. There is only one print button and it’s at the very bottom. Definitely do not download any apps. There is a recipe at the bottom where there are 5 stars ⭐️ and right above the 5 stars is a button that says print - that’s the only print option. Everything else is an advertisement that’s popping up for you. Sorry for the confusion 😩
An excellent explanation of the process. You speak calmly and reassuredly so we novices can do this, too!
Yes you can! Thanks so much 🧡
Very very helpful. Thank you!
You’re welcome!
Beautiful
Why thanks so much! 😊
So very helpful, thank you 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Enjoy ❤️
Thank you! This is very helpful! Can you tell me where your wooden measuring spoons are from?
Good! Amazon 😊 amzn.to/3wiQLEb

Yes that would make sense to me too. Chunky is good, you just don’t want runny.

What happens if it gets watery and has a pungent smell? I may have waited to long too feed it today.
It’s probably just hungry! Stir it and feed it and you’ll be good to go 👍🏻
Can i add all the discard into one container as i go to use for discard recipes?
Yep!
My starter is on the runny side.I use 1/2 cup (60 grams ) of local, whole grain einkorn flour that I mill at home and 1/4 cup filtered water ( also 60 grams).
If it’s too runny I would use more flour or less water
@TheDuvallHomestead Thank you. I made the bread today.Looks amazing.Waiting to cut it tomorrow morning.
@@ely42609 oh yay enjoy!! ✨
@@TheDuvallHomestead Thank you.I wish I could eat it, but I have celiac. My kids said it tastes great, just like an artisan sourdough bread they had în Europe.
What if I got tons of bubbles by day 3? Should I use it then, or still wait for 5 days
@@myhusbandsrib I would give it a couple more days but you can try it now!
Does this work with fresh ground einkorn?
@@hollydevine8866 yes! If the consistency is too thick or runny you can always adjust the water amount but it will absolutely work 👍🏻
Could we start with smaller amounts of water and flour but keep the same ratio?
@@adelakern7120 yes
When you say you use all purpose flour to make bread with your einkorn sour dough starter are you talking about white flour or einkorn to make the loaf?
@@cindypauquette7159 in this video I used 100% all purpose einkorn flour. But I normally use 50% einkorn and 50% white for a higher rise!
Would this recipe still work if I was using whole wheat einkorn flour?
I Have not tried it but I think it should!
@@TheDuvallHomestead I’ll give it a try, thank you! I tried the recipe that Jovial has on TH-cam and my dough hasn’t done anything. It’s just like a lump of dough and it’s been over a week 😭
@@TheDuvallHomestead well I’ve tried it and it works wonderfully! Finally I have a sourdough starter that works! Thank you for this recipe!
@@danugarbarino874 I’m so glad!! Be sure to leave a review on the blog post at the very bottom! : theduvallhomestead.com/einkorn-sourdough-starter/
Does this have to be done with AP Einkorn? Can I do it with FMF whole Einkorn?
What’s FMF?
@@TheDuvallHomestead fresh milled flour
