      This sounds awesome But I dont know metrics and have no idea what a 100 grams even looks like. I have a triple beam scale at house- old school. It can weight grams ounces I believe. It was purchased for weighing precious metals in pieces and chips. Do you think it will work? But I'd feel much better using American measurements. Though I keep reading that for bread weigh is better than cups.

    I made my own very active starter 4 years ago with whole wheat flour and water. I named her Alphina and feed her at least once a week, usually more. I've learned recently that she does not need to be fed immediately before making bread. My loaves proof and bake just as beautifully with cold starter from the fridge as they do with freshly fed starter.

    I made my starter from a package of San Francisco sourdough starter my step-daughter sent to me. To be honest, when I read the recipe for growing the starter, I was totally intimidated, so I tossed the package in the pantry for like 6 months. One day I decided to give it a try. Figured nothing ventured, nothing gained.🙄 As I recall, it took about 7 days to see it become a wonderful, living, bubbly starter. It was like a miracle. I have kept that starter alive for about 8 yrs. now. Occasionally I will add a little rye flour or whole wheat flour to give it a new boost.
    When you pealed back the starter from the bowl, that sound made me smile. Gluten is a wondrous thing. With no disparaging against those who have Celiac Disease, I feel like many have jumped on the bandwagon against glutton without understanding what it is. Thank you for an informative and thoughtful presentation.

    I just tried this and it worked great! My grapes were not organic, so I made two separate batches, one with grapes and the other with organic dried figs. Both turned out exactly like the video. The fig batch ended up with a million little fig seeds in it, so I'm not proceeding with that one. But the non-organic grapes worked perfectly. I've never baked a thing, so thanks for the great tutorial, Nicole!

    In my country, Turkey, it is very popular to use crushed chickpeas or dried raisins at the very beginning. I cultivated my first starter, the truth, during the lockdown directly from organic whole rye and organic stone-ground whole wheat flour (50 gr each and 100 gr spring water, feeding is 50 gr starter that same 50+50 flour/100 water). I like the research behind your videos. Keep the cool stuff going, please!

    Mine is a sixty-year-old rye starter that I sourced from a small artisanal bakery in the Lake District in the UK. The discard makes the most wonderful blueberry pancakes, and the resulting bread, allowing the levain to develop for a little longer than usual, has a wonderful tangy flavour. I have also started to use 150g of the starter as a substitute for the 75g of flour I normally use in my Wholewheat, Spelt and Rye Soda Bread, which has added an extra mouthwatering characteristic to an already tasty loaf.

    Love your videos as always. Here in Italy we use "lievito madre" (mother yeast) that is very similar to your starter.

    Made my starter at the start of Covid. It lives on the counter and I feed it weekly or the day/night before I need it. In the mean time, I give it a peeled quartered russet potato to eat during the week and switch it out when they start getting small and shriveled looking. All I do is stir it every day or so. Its been fun to figure out all this bread making stuff and experimenting with new ideas for recipes. I don't like to use the scale and have been trying to explore more of a "feel" for the dough like what was done in times before scales and electronics when the sourdough was much more of a staple for every day life. I have got some good idea and recipes from Kent Rollins' channel. Thanks for the video.

    I enjoy your videos. I'm late to the sourdough game, but have been enjoying it. My starter is 5 months old. Started with organic rye to get it going. Now is a mix of 30% WW and 70% Bread Flour. Very active. I bake once a week. Just pull out my starter from the fridge and feed the night before I bake. It's ready to go in the morning having tripled in volume. During these summer months, I feed with cooler water as it will peak in 5-6 hours otherwise when sitting ont he counter.

    My first attempt at a started went "horribly" wrong. I only managed to feed it only once, and then forgot about it for 2-4 weeks in room temp.
    I was feeling sad about it and discarded the whole thing in defeat.
    Surprisingly, I think it took until the 4th week for it to start to "mold", up until then, it was just hooch, as I now recall! So, it was probably still "alive" and trying to preserve itself before the mold took over the population.
    I live near the equator, but thank God the temperature in my kitchen doesn't really get too hot and humid. Pretty resilient creatures. Thanks for sharing! ❤️

    I had an interesting experience this week. I've started the bread making process after 3 years away from it.
    I tried making wild yeast leaven, but I somehow killed it with R/O water that had some added chemicals.
    So I started again, and used some of the crusted flour from my banneton basket from 3 years earlier.
    That started just exploded the next day and almost tripled in size in the first go. Pretty cool.

    I have cheated and used "Beer" instead of "Water" for the first 30 day's to jump start the Yeast and get a much stronger "Starter " going. It also makes a great tasting bread and hamburger buns, items like that. You can skip a feeding if you have to go out of town or other reason. It will work out to be around 3 beers and then you can change over to water. I have heard of people using a small amount of honey, or even sugar to also give it a little extra boost if it's been asleep for a little more than it should have been. Good luck and I hope you are having fun with your baking.

    I started my sourdough starter around 3 years ago on my own! Sourdough bread isn't really a thing here in Costa Rica (not yet, at least), so I surfed the internet for a recipe. I used organic wheat flour from a very reputable brand which gave me no trouble, but it was hard to know if I had done it right until a few days passed.
    My starter smelled awful the first days (which you may have an idea why) and I regretted not using pineapple juice as I was suggested on a website to expedite the whole thing. I wonder if that's not common enough that you didn't mention it in your video.
    Now, on the other hand, I've never managed to get such a fluffy bread and thin crust like yours! I'm so envious right now. 😅 I'd love for a video on how to make a perfect loaf like that (I follow you on Instagram, but it's not quite the same watching just stories).

      @@TrueFoodTV Thanks to you. I love to learn so maybe in future I will try it. With our Indian dals and curries flat breads or Rotis are a daily affair 2-3 times a day.

    My go-to starter was "started" on 11-7-2019. Initially, It consisted of 50 grams of bread flour, 50 grams of whole wheat flour, and 10 grams of Spelt flour, to which I added 10 organic Cumin seeds for extra wild yeast, and 100 grams of water.. Eventually, after several feedings, the cumin seeds were weeded out. Now, it is amazing.

    I have experimented by myself too as my oven is broken and it took almost 3 months tp fixed it. I believe that there's almost a month that I just put it in the fridge without feeding and it still alive!

  • @rodneyferris4089

    My starter is about 8 years old. It went to sleep a couple of years ago. I revived it and it is really lively now! I never have any to discard. I bake twice a week and when I get down to scrapings i feed it and let it go crazy for a day then pop it in the fridge or take two heaping soup spoons to make my next bake! Don’t chuck the hooch! I did so until Mary from Mary’s n’est suggested that the hooch is part of tte sourdough starter and is the cleaner. I never wash out the jar ever! It seems to clean itself. As a single guy discard is a waste of flour!

  • @lolam.9291
    @lolam.9291 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    I have been making my own bread (I do not buy commercial bread any longer) for the last two year, and making sourdough for almost a year. At this point, I do not even discard any of my starter. I leave scrapings or approximately 30G-50G in a jar and place it in my refrigerator. I feed it every two weeks, when it is time to make bread; I make 2-3 loaves at a time. I would say, the only thing I can try and improve on is the spring in my sourdough bread, as I still need to improve with shaping. My sourdough bread usually has a 74%-75% hydration and I find this sometimes a little difficult to manage. Your sourdough bread has a little more spring as compared to mine; I would actually like to see my sourdough bread rise as high. I will subscribe to your channel and use your folding techniques in approximately a couple of weeks 😉 as I just baked 3 loaves yesterday... Thank you!!! ❤️... To be continued...

    I make new starters all the time. Usually 2-3 days it’s very active then it goes into the fridge. Feed it a couple times during the week, then bake on Sunday. Really don’t kneed to overthink it.
