How To Make Sourdough Bread

Once you have created your own yeast, you need to “feed” it regularly. This means adding 1 cup flour and 1 cup water to the mix so that the yeast can keep growing.

You will need to feed the starter daily if it is at room temperature, or weekly if it is in the fridge. If you don’t bake bread that day, you will also need to toss out one cup of the starter after feeding so that the ratios stay the same.

This is an important step, and can be a great motivator to bake regularly so that none of your hard work goes to waste!

Thank you for the Sourdough starter recipe. I remember making a sourdough bread from a starter someone gave me, but I had to put it into a seal-able plastic bag and leave it on the counter. There was something I had to do daily and on day 7 I made bread. Do you by chance know about this starter?

It turns out super tangy and most of the work is hands-off. And by hands-off I mean you’ll basically just be waiting for it to rise after each step.

Beginner Basic Sourdough Starter Recipe Using Yeast

I’m not going to pretend to be a scientist so I’m going to share what King Arthur Flour says about this bread.

“What makes the sour in sourdough bread? It’s a combination of lactic and acetic acids, created as the dough rises and ferments. Refrigerating the dough encourages the production of more acetic than lactic acid, and acetic acid is much the tangier of the two. Thus, sourdough bread that’s refrigerated before baking will have a more assertive sour flavor.”

How cool is that? Personally, I want my sourdough bread as TANGY as possible, and with this recipe that is exactly what you get.

If you’re new to the world of bread making this is a pretty easy recipe to start with. Plus, besides the waiting, it’s really easy and you’ll be rewarded with 2 beautiful loaves.

After my loaf has cooled I wrap it in plastic wrap, place it into a large freezer-safe zip-top baggie, and store it in the freezer for up to 3 months.

Besides the obvious option – eating it plain with lots of salted butter. I also like to use my sourdough bread in a few of my favorite recipes!

How To Make Grain Free Bread (gluten Free & Vegan)

When you feed your sourdough you give it fresh flour and water that gets mixed into a small portion of your starter. The remaining starter can be thrown away, given to a friend, or added to a compost pile.

Add 1/2 teaspoon sour salt/citric acid to the bread along with the kosher salt. This will give you an even tangier bread.

Yes! I wrap my cooked sourdough in plastic wrap and then store it in a freezer-safe bag. I typically keep my frozen bread in the freezer for up to 3 months for optimal taste.

Basic Sourdough Bread Recipe

You want a nice strong starter to successfully pull off this recipe. At a minimum, you’ll want to have fed your starter for at least a week but I like to let mine go about a month before I start cooking with it. If you have a starter you have fed regularly for a year or more you do not likely have to wait this time. This is for unfed or brand new

So...all that blogidy blog, blah, blah, blah and there's no recipe for the actual sourdough starter? The comments appear to be more like fan mail. It appears no one has actually made this bread, and I can see why. It's literally impossible to make sourdough bread calling for starter WITHOUT THE STARTER RECIPE. Zero stars. Not a fan. Will not return.

Artisan Sourdough Bread Recipe (with Video!)

Hi Emma - thank you so much for your super helpful comment! I can see I caught you on a good day. The recipe is for the bread, not the starter. Or I would have named the recipe homemade sourdough starter. You can find sourdough starters available from King Arthur Flour or by asking your friends and family who might have some starter they can give you. You don't simply whip up a batch of sourdough starter from scratch for 1 loaf of bread. In fact, at a minimum making your own starter takes at least a week and is a whole list of steps. It would not be feasible to teach you how to BOTH make your own starter and make bread in 1 post. Maybe after you have mastered making your own starter, you can come back and try this recipe. Thanks!

You know what would be really great? If people wouldn't comment that they follow on teitter, instagram, blh blah, or people who haven't tried it but feel compelled to say it sounds interesting. Really, who cares? You are filling up c9mments that are not helpful to anybody!

I have used this recipe many times and it's the best and easy. I do use a dutch oven for 20 minutes with top on and then 15 minutes or so till the internal temperature reaches between 200 and 210 degrees fahrenheit. I also have added both roasted garlic and olives with the second flour addition (2 cups). Works every time.My birthday was coming up, and I decided that what I wanted most was to have a bruschetta potluck. I would provide the bread and we all would bring toppings!

The Best Sourdough Sandwich Bread, Yeast Free

Of course I wanted to make sourdough for the bread. But a search of the internet brought up no reliable soft sourdough French bread recipes that had no yeast. So I decided to write my own recipe! It turned out beautifully the first time.

Of course you need to start with an active sourdough starter. An active starter is one that’s been fed 8-12 hours previously, has doubled in bulk, and is bubbly and sour.
