Hi Bold Bakers! Make Sourdough without any fuss: bit.ly/SourdoughBreadRecipe
Is the starter supposed to smell?
Hi. It has a sour smell, but that is normal because it's fermented.
Wow your baby is so cute
Thanks so much Gemma. I've been looking for a sourdough recipe that doesn't require so much needing. Cant wait to try it🥰
To make your own bread flour, start by measuring out all-purpose flour according to your recipe. Next, add 1 teaspoon of vital wheat gluten for every 1 cup of flour to give the bread a firmer texture. For example, if your recipe calls for 2½ cups of flour, you would use 2½ teaspoons of vital wheat gluten. During this lockdown its hard to find any flour or wheat gluten lol ;;;) God Bless Us All in these times!!!!!
I have been watching baking videos for years but yours is one of my favorite. You explain it so straightforward, no fuss, nothing fancy, just right. Making it easy to follow and recreate. It reminds me of my mom when she first taught me how to bake. Thank you. Keep it coming.
I made this dough last night and baked it today. The flavor was really good. In fact, out of the half dozen no-knead sourdough bread recipes I've tried, your recipe produced the best flavor result. I think the addition of olive oil gave it a good flavor and a more delicate crumb without sacrificing the crusty crust! I used the Americas Test Kitchen method of proofing the dough on parchment in a dutch oven, covered with cling wrap, and placed in a cold oven (oven was kept off) over a pan of steaming water during the proofing period. When finished proofing, removed the cling wrap, scored the dough, put the lid on the dutch oven and put it back into the cold oven, turned the oven on and let both the bread/dutch oven and the oven rise up to 425 degrees at the same time. Worked like a charm, and no need to use a banneton or cloth covered bowl for proofing and no need to preheat the dutch oven or the oven.Thank you for this delicious recipe. I will make it again!
That’s fantastic! Thank you for giving my recipe a go. Well done to you!
I do the total mix, Flour, salt mix well then add to water, starter mix. mix well and no autolyse, just 2 stretch and fold then bulk fermentation. 10 hours later fold shape then 3 hours later bake...single day baking - simple and easy. Thumbs up!
Thanks for sharing, Jeyanthu.
Thanks Gemma and Kevin. Blessings to you and your little one😊
You are welcome. Thank you for the well wishes.
Thanks for the great tips and recipe 👍
The sourdough looks perfect and yummy 😋
Who here is big fan of Bigger Bolder Baking? ❤️ 🙋♂️🙋♀️
You are welcome.
I just subscribed
My husband's grandmother did all her baking with her hands and she taught me what it should feel like. Love your recipes and your sweet new baby boy!
I just made my own starter using your recipe! I’ve seen a lot of video explaining about sourdough but I never understand the process but you explain it clearly and easy to understand. I never had sourdough before in my life, I hope it’ll taste amazing🤩 Thanks a lot Gemma😇
I'm delighted to hear that Is'ad. Go ahead and give this a go. Here's the complete recipe bit.ly/SourdoughBreadRecipe
To all of our Canadians friends, flour in canada usually contain a higher amount of gluten due to the variety of wheat thats grown here. I’ve got great results using regular all purpose flour for bread here. Best of luck with your bread!
I am from India. It's quite hot in here 38 degree celcius. Can I keep my dough for proofing at room temperature only?
One more - can I prepare my starter at this temperature or should I keep it in the refrigerator?
Thank you for sharing this Shelly and for being here. If you're going to give this a go, here's the complete recipe ttps://bit.ly/SourdoughBreadRecipe
@@biggerbolderbaking please answer my question too...
@@TheFearlessCooking You can try creating a starter at 38C, and see if it will stay alive. Look for the bubbling and keep track of its smell for signs that it's alive. I would think that a higher temperature means less proofing time for your dough. When proofing at your room temperature I think it would take less time. Experiment with sourdough! you wont know what works until you've tried it
thanks for sharing was not aware our Canadian flour was different. I have had great success baking bread with AP flour.
I’ve been trying a lot of sour dough recipes lately and just baked this one today in my Dutch oven. It’s fantastic!! Thank you for this recipe Gemma. It’s my new go-to.😉
Well done to you, Joanne. Thanks for sharing.
Third time is the charm! My first two attempts totally failed. I just couldn't get surface tension for the proof and ended up with loose blobs. The third time, I refrigerated the dough before shaping it and got a great result. The final product looked and tasted amazing! Thank you for the recipe and great instructions
Well done to you! Thank you for sharing.
George looks like her mamma and he looks soooo cute when he is sleeping. And also Gemma your cooking is really good and helps us very much in this quarantine. Iam really fortunate that I found your channel.
Thank you for your kind words. Stay safe!
Wow! This is really gorgeous bread! Thank you so much for walking us through the whole process. It was great to see every step. I've always been a bit intimidated by sourdough, but now I want to try it.
Stay with us! You''ll bake with confidence anytime anywhere!
If not for you, I would have never discovered the joy of baking my own sourdough bread. Honestly did not even like sourdough that much, but your video made me want to try. Five months later and sourdough bread is the only bread for me! Thank you so much for your inspiration and your wonderful videos. Congratulations on your new home!
Thrilled to hear that, Suz! Thank you so much for your support and this glowing review! Keep it up, happy baking !
You are the best chef you have to be in a TV show😘😍
Thank you for your kind words.
Totally agreed !!!
After months of watching videos on sourdough bread making and many failed attempts, your technique was the one that helped me to finally break the mold. My bread today came out awesome. Got a nice ear, even and tender crumb and delicious subtly sour taste. Thank you so much!!!
That's fantastic, Enrico! Well done to you!
WOW! Thank you SO MUCH for this recipe. I am relatively new to making sourdough bread and I am so excited about the loaf I baked today following your suggestion to bake it under a metal bowl. I haven't been quite satisfied with the ones I've baked in a loaf pan, but I don't have a dutch oven and really didn't want to buy one. Today's loaf - my fourth one since I started my sourdough journey 2 months ago, turned out AMAZING!!! Thank you so much - I have enjoyed many of your recipes - they are always amazing! God Bless.
Gemma - Bravo!! Fabulous!!
Finally someone with simple, clear instructions for one single loaf, cup & spoon measurements and simple household items. Love, love the napkin/breadbasket tip and stand mixing bowl idea. Worked like a charm. After quite a few dense failures, and nearly giving up, I turned out a beautiful, perfect loaf of sourdough bread. Thank you so much.
BTW I live in Jerusalem used the AP flour here without a problem.
Now I want to try one with part rye flour & caraway seeds and and one with part ww flour.
Go for it, Chaya. Thank you for the kind words.
chaya q 👏👍
Truly simple and easy to understand! Thank you from the bottom of my heart! Been watching sourdough videos for weeks now to be ready when my starter is ready and I'm not kidding when I say I almost gave up on baking sourdough bread because it seemed too complicated without a science degree,which I don't have. Again, thank you.
Glad it was helpful! Carry on baking!
@@biggerbolderbaking Update: Bread came out nice and tasty. I'll bake another one for grandson when he is back from vacation this weekend, he loves bread as much as I do.
I love love your baking recipes cause they are delicious and easy and everyone in my family loves it
Thank you for your kind words.
Same !!
I have to say, baby george is the HIGHLIGHT of your new videos!! He’s so cute I can’t!!
Thank you for the kind words.
Thank you, Thank you. Since I’ve been working on my starter, for about 4 months now, I’ve been trying to make a loaf of sourdough bread, with not happy results. Every one I’ve made turned out like a 10# brick of dough. Yesterday I started using your recipe, and today I baked my sourdough bread, with results, I would be proud of putting in any bakery window. Again Thank you so much. John 😊
Thrilled to hear that! Well done to you! Keep up your great work!
My dough looked a little wet.can or should i add a bit more flour
This is wonderful - very informative, thank you! I've made bread, but never sourdough. Yeast is a gift from heaven, isn't it? Can't wait to try.
I’n glad this was helpful to you. Go ahead and give this a go www.biggerbolderbaking.com/sourdough-bread-for-beginners/
Thank you so much for this lovely recipe and video. I started to make sourdough again as it's spring season here in New Zealand. Sourdough came out super soft and fluffy and chewy in the middle. The amount of salt was perfect!
And I did my starter watching your video too. Its now 9mths old starter. Very proud to kept it alive this long
That’s fantastic, Terri! Well done, you!
I love this recipe!! Its so easy!! And the starter is so easy too!! Love love this!!!
Delighted to hear that, Janet. Thank you for being here.
Thanks for sharing I tried your starter recipe first three days it didn’t do anything it was a little runny...on the third day I added some more flour to it and it started bubbling it was almost like the bubbles were at the bottom hiding!!! The fourth and fifth day it was bubbling more and it smelled like starter. I baked bread on Monday and it came out really good and delicious thank you again for sharing...I love the fact that I don’t have to feed it every day and that I can put it in the refrigerator take it out add some water...that really made my day! Thanks
'Well done to you! I'm glad your starter turned out well.
Im so blessed to have found this channel. Thank you verymuch Gemma🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
You are so welcome! Thank you so much for being part of this community! Feel free to search for recipes, baking basics and our premium quality products you like on my website www.biggerbolderbaking.com!
I love this recipe! Definitely, after the first rise, put in the fridge for another 24 hours or more hours to develop more flavor that is to die for. And thank you Gemma. I have learned so much from watching your videos.
I’m glad you found this helpful! Thank you for sharing.
I have my own starter and made this Saturday and cooked Sunday. The easiest and tastiest sour dough bread ever and we had 5 over for tea and it was a hit.
Well done, Elizabeth. Thank you for sharing.
That is the best name for a starter! I’m jealous.
Hi gemma, you're one of the best bakers, glad I found your channel as I'm just a student and a beginner who has nothing except an oven, but sadly it's quarantine and I dont even have my oven near me, but definitely I will give your recipies a try, Thankyou gemma, lots of love from🇮🇳😄
Thank you for your kind words.
That is a very great recipe. Stay safe and remember we will get through this together.
Thank you for your kind words. I wish you and your family the same. Yes, we will get through this.
Hi Gemma, thank u for the healthy recipe in this lockdown time. Stay safe
You are welcome. Thank you for the well wishes. Stay safe!
Thank you
My teenage son and I just mixed our dough and are waiting until tomorrow to make our loaves. We both made one each. So excited to see and taste the results tomorrow!!
Hope you get on well!
Love, love, love this. I have taken inspiration from this lovely baker as well as some other people I have been following on RUclips. I decided to post up my attempt in real time, wish me luck!
How did it go, Tom?
Hey Chunky Bird, it went really well thanks. Been making loaves successfully every week since. I need to upload my results.
@@tompatrick795 Yay! Sounds delicious 😋👍
I've made this sour dough loaf a few times now and really love it, thanks for sharing Gemma

I am, at this very moment, putting the final bake on my first boulle of sourdough. The house smells amazing. Thank you for helping me and I look forward to baking a loaf a day.
I hope it turned out well! Thanks for giving my recipe a go.
So beautiful golden brown colour 😍 crisp crunchy bread 👌👍😋😁 gorgeous
It is a beautiful bread. Go ahead and give this a go. Here's the recipe bit.ly/SourdoughBreadRecipe
I am glad i found you i made my first sourdough starter it was great 😃 but when i mixed everything together then neading it and leaven it in a warm place to rise it did not rise☹️ then neaded it again put it in a baking bag see through then in the oven on 250 for 20 mins it was a waste of time 😞 it was so flat i have some great sourdough starter in the fridge now i have found your way of making it i will try again love how you explain how to do it as on RUclips so many make it look so hard God bless you 🙏
I hope it was helpful, Mary. Do share how you get on with it.
@@biggerbolderbaking hi Gemma sadly may bread did not turn out well it was flat it was not because I followed you I followed someone else but now I found your method I will have another go I was so sad my sourdough starter was great it blow out of the jar so I got that right will wait a bit before I start again God bless you and your family from UK.
I made a sourdough yesterday from the perfect loaf.com. It was a labor of love that’s for sure a two day process. I bought a Bannaton on Amazon for $17.I think I’m gonna try your bread next it looks a lot simpler.
Go for it Randi. Here's the complete recipe ttps://bit.ly/SourdoughBreadRecipe
Hi Gemma made this loaf last week it turned out great going to make another one tomorrow.
Thanks for sharing this recipe and all your great tips .... Steve
Thanks . Wonderful vid , very explanatory and easy to understand. It's worth giving it a try.

Sourdough is my all-time favourite bread!!! Definitely going to make this. 😄
Go for it! Here's the complete recipe www.biggerbolderbaking.com/sourdough-bread-for-beginners/
Hello Gemma, Congratulations to you. Baby George is so adorable. Thank you for the sourdough starter recipe and this sourdough bread recipe. I love making bread and I never buy bread from stores or bakery. In my country people dont bake so much, and bread baking is out of the question. We have so many bakeries here that its much more convenient to buy bread. Yet I love to bake my own bread. I have tried many of your other recipes too during the past. As you had mentioned, Yeast is not available here nowadays. So I am definitely going to try the sourdough starter tomorrow. I was always hesitant to try it out. But you make it seem easy and your videos are so informative and clear. Thank you so much. Have a good day.
Thank you for the kind words Roxana. The demand for baking ingredients is quite high because most people are staying home. I'm happy to know that you have made your own sourdough starter. Bread making is an important life skill, especially when people have limited mobility these days.
Great recipe.Thanks for it and your baby's amazing!!
You are welcome. Thank you for your kind words. If you're going to give this a go, here's the recipe ttps://bit.ly/SourdoughBreadRecipe
I've been looking out for this video since I grew my starter according to your starter video. Thank you! Would love to see more sourdough-based recipes, like cinnamon rolls perhaps? George is so adorable. My son has the same name 🤗
Thank you for sharing Tori. I am working on sourdough recipes, so stay tuned. Thank you for the kind words. Keep safe.
Monday I plan to make my first ever sourdough starter. Your previous recipe has encouraged me
Go for it, Desirae. Here's my guide on how to make your own sourdough starter www.biggerbolderbaking.com/how-to-make-a-sourdough-starter-guide/
You’re my favorite chef. Congratulations on your son! He’s adorable!
Thank you for the kind words.
I’m 14 and just learning how to cook, but I made this recipe and it was perfect. It had lots of bubbles and it looked just like yours.
Great job!
That looks so yummy that I feel like I am forced to try it😂😂 Love your recipes and videos!!!STAY SAFE AND HEALTHY!!!💖💖💖💓💓💓
It is. Go ahead and give this a go. Here's the complete recipe bit.ly/SourdoughBreadRecipe
@@biggerbolderbaking Thank you. I will!!!
Hello, thank you for your guide! So helpful!
I have a doubt, The temperature here is around 26-28 deg C- Quite hot, and humid as well.
I prepared a starter yesterday evening at around 6 pm with whole wheat flour and water. When I checked today at around 3 pm, the starter had risen drastically and was smelling sour and pungent. The starter hasn't gone flat, nor is there any mold. Should I feed it some more flour or throw it away?
I'm using her starter recipe and videos too. If it smells sour (like bread), it's fine. Follow her instructions - remove half and then feed it
Wonderful sourdough bread😉
Bravissima Gemma 👏👏👏👏😘
Baby George is so so sweet when he sleeps👶😍
Thank you for your kind words.
Hope u guys have a good day ily>3 ❤️
It’s because of you I started baking I got lots of tips and I love baking like 5 times a day I like how I improve every day 😊😊😃
Thank you so much for making this video. I am anxious to try.
Go for it, Jolene www.biggerbolderbaking.com/sourdough-bread-for-beginners/
Thank you for this recipe and video! So helpful. I’m on day 1 for ‘Sarah Starter’ I hope someone monitors comments 😳 but just really curious - the recipe says ‘loosely cover’ but I followed the video and used a large mason jar and sealed it up. As this yeast feeds on the atmosphere just hoping I’m doing it right! Excited. I love sourdough so much and excited to expand my bread baking skills. Thank you!!!
Hi Dawn. The recipe is correct, it should be loosely covered. Hope this helps!
oooh myyyyyyy cant wait to to try this out in my next video. You always inspire me to bake, will do and tag you ....yeeeeeeeehh
Go for it!
Thanks @Bigger Bolder Baking
I'm locked here 😍
Thank you for helping me add skills 😊
Thank you for this video and recipe. I have just made a lovely loaf for the first time. I have tried some other sourdough recipes and found them too complicated and a bit overwhelming. I am really pleased with my attempt at this type of loaf.
I’m delighted to hear that, Catherine. Well done to you!
Wow you are wonderful I love the way you explain things GEMMA
Glad this is helpful to you, Mahin. Thank you for the kind words.

Perfect timing for the video. My sourdough starter just matured. I am gonna make this asap
Great minds think alike! Can't wait to see what you bake!
How timely this video is! I'm moving into day 3 of making my sourdough starter! Sourdough is soooo trending now. Hahaha.
It takes time but it's totally worth it !
I tried it and I love the end result. Mine got a tiny bit browner than yours and I dint got those big air pockets inside, I suppose I need to let it ferment for a couple more hours. But the end result was super delicious and quite simple, and it worked! Thanks a lot.
Well done, still!
Thank you for a great program.I will surely try this recipe.
You are most welcome! Hope you get on well !
Thank you for explaining the scoring! I've been sitting here wondering about that while watching artisian/sourdough recipe videos.
So fun listening to the Irish talk. "And while it proofs, you can go have a cuppa." :-)
Thanks a million for the support!
That is one fantastic looking sourdough bread Gemma, I love the crust, it’s wonderful. Thank you for a detailed video as always
Thanks so much for watching! Glad you enjoy it !
Congratulations Gemma, wish your family joy! Thank you for this simplified version. Hope it works for me

Lucky you! Then let's get baking! Do share your bake here!
Loved your video Thank you :-) Question I can't have regular yeast, wheat flour or wheat bran no regular flours. I'm using spelt flour now and want to know if I can make sourdough with it? Do I need to all something to it? We so love sour dough Help me find some way of making it.
Yes I would like to know about spelt or rye or whole wheat sourdoughs.
I can't wait to try this sourdough bread. Thank you for sharing.
You are so welcome! Hope you get on well ! We all learn from practice !
Thank you for explaining it thoroughly.....❤️
Sourdough is always delicious and your sourdough recipe seems like no exception!
Thanks a million!
I tried it and it is very very yummy! Thank you!!
Your loaf of bread is such a work of art! :)
Thank you for the kind words, Lorenzo.
Love sourdough but normally resort to buying it as I don't always have time to make it with my own recipe - may have to give this one a go. Thank you for sharing Gemma! 👍🙂
Happy to hear it, Elliott. Let me know how you get on!

Baby George is just adorable❤❤❤❤🤗😍😊🥰🥰
Great recipe Gemma!❤🌍💞
Hi Gemma. Your recipes along with the way you instruct are awsome_fast and easy :-) Thanks.
3 questions:
1. after i use the sour dough starter on day 7, how do I maintain the rest of it for future use: feed and keep it in the fridge? no more room temperature. This is what I understood from your video. Please confirm. In that case what if I want to make another loaf on day 8. The feeding + fridge time (over night) will give me enough yeast and functional to use?
2. where to buy your collection of mug meals (only)?
3. what is the volume of the mugs that you use for your mug meal demos? I don't think your are using the 250 mL, looks smaller like a tea cup.
Many thanks again.
Elli
Thank you for your recipe and explanation of each step. Can you please tell the purpose of the oil? Thanks again.
Hi. In baking, oil helps in the lubrication of dough, for ease of dough handling and its expansion. It makes it easier to slice the bread once it is baked. It also tenderizes baked items and helps in prolonging shelf life by slowing down retrogradation or staling. I hope this helps.
Ooooh amazing video, thanks! Wanted to make sourdough for a long time but was too scared... have to give this a go!
Go for it, Rodney! Here's the complete recipe www.biggerbolderbaking.com/sourdough-bread-for-beginners/

ms gemma, after proofing for 18hrs...can i cut the dough before balling them? my banneton is a bit small and I have 2 of it so I was thinking of splitting the dough so I can create 2 sourdough bread?
Yes, you can do that, Mau. I hope you get on well with it.
When I saw your last video on the starter I pulled mine out from the fridge, it has been kind of neglected but it is still alive it is now 3 years old actually as of 4/8! I have made 2 loafs of bread and waffles. I’m giving a jar to my mom along with one of the loafs later today. I can’t wait to try out this recipe though ❤️
Wow, that is amazing. Thank you for sharing here.
And go ahead, give this recipe a go bit.ly/SourdoughBreadRecipe

Lovely...what does the olive oil do...I have never used it, but am interested in doing something a bit different...great video...thanks.
It gives out a lovely flavor in your bread. I hope you’ll give it a go. Here’s the recipe www.biggerbolderbaking.com/sourdough-bread-for-beginners/
Gemma, I love your recipes and videos, they have helped me so much! I have a question about sourdough, I tried two months ago, but should never get my starter strong enough. I’m thinking about buying a starter, do you sell them, or do you recommend anyone?
Sorry I don't. What did you use for your starter? Make a few changes, you'll be grand !
From now on, feed your starter at water: flour: starter ratio 1:1:1, twice a day (roughly every 12 hours) and keep it over the counter. Use unbleached (no chemicals) all purpose flour or unbleached bread flour. Whole wheat flour has more bran which will weigh down your bread to make it difficult to rise.
Use bottled water instead tap water which may have chemicals to slow down or kill your starter ( same thing applies flour). Warm it to around 45C or a little bit warmer than blood temperature.
You should use your starter when it's close to or at its peak time to achieve the best result including best oven spring. Each time it behaves differently. I suggest you take time to learn your starter better. To watch the highest point it can get . To test whether it’s ready to use: mix your starter to distribute bubbles evenly then drop a spoonful of starter into a bowl of water. If it floats, it’s ready to go.
Thank you for this great video! Simple and easy recipe and technique!
Glad you liked it!
Thank you so much for creating and sharing this great video! 🙏 Easy to follow and very inspiring! Again, many thanks! 🙏
You are so welcome! Hope you give it a go and enjoy !
I'm salivating 😋
Go for it! Here's the complete recipe www.biggerbolderbaking.com/sourdough-bread-for-beginners/
Nice information. I’m kind of new to bread baking maybe a few years - i’m retired and a guy who loves to cook (now bake). I started with yeast breads. Just now trying to make my first sour dough starter. I also about a year ago bought my own grain mill. I did find some of my recipes with fresh red wheat berries needs adjusting - normally a little more water. Do you think this one will work with 1/2 whole grains (milled wheat) and 1/2 all purpose?
Technically, it is possible. I haven’t tried it so I can’t recommend proportions to get the best result.
on your video on sourdough bread baking do you need to heat the dutch oven before you put the dough in the dutch oven then put it in the reg oven
Yay I’m gonna try this
Go for it. Selah. Here's the complete recipe www.biggerbolderbaking.com/sourdough-bread-for-beginners/
