sourdough

Sourdough is a bread made by the fermentation of dough using wild lactobacillaceae and yeast. Lactic acid from fermentation imparts a sour taste and improves keeping qualities.

I have followed a guide religiously and used literally the exact same tools and ingredients with proper temperatures and everything. I have done feedings every 24 hours. This is what it looked like before the feeding I...

    Baker's Percentages and Sourdough

    Hi cookingbites.com. Been looking into this, but have gotten multiple answers to the same question. When calculating baker's percentages for sourdough bread, do you include the flour and water weight of the starter/pre-ferment? In other words if I wanted a 70% hydration dough, then do I use the...

    Recipe Sourdough Pancakes

    If you have your own sourdough starter, you will know that you need to replenish it every day and that means discarding some of the starter each time. This is a great way to use up some of the 'discard'. You can leave the pancake batter to prove overnight - or just leave it for an hour, as I...

    Sourdough Starter: Day 04 onwards

    Sourdough Starter: Day 04 Its been very active yesterday and overnight. So it's pretty much a case of replenishing it every day now until it's established. I like to give mine as long as I can really to get established but most literature I've read suggests a minimum of 10 days to 2 weeks before...

    Sourdough Starter: Day 03

    Sourdough Starter: Day 03 Looking at my starter this morning, it's clear to me that it had used all of the available food to it and needs a refresh rather than a straight feed. So today I'll throw most of it away and put fresh flour and water in it. I know this because my starter is very...

    Sourdough Starter: Day 01

    Sourdough Starter: Day 01 Right, hopefully you all decided that premixing your flour had benefits... It doesn't have to be an airtight jar like mine is. Because of where I live (rurally so think of mice, ants, etc) I keep all of my produce out of pests' way. And IKEA do these kilner like jars...

    Sourdough Starter: Day 0

    My original plan had been to run this as a 'Bake-a-long', but I have run into a timeline problem. I don't have enough of it before going on holiday to actually arrange with everyone a date to start on, say roughly 2 weeks from now when everyone has their ingredients and jars together and is...
