  • The beginner’s guide to making sourdough starter from scratch! In just 5-7 days you will have starter ready to make loaves of bread, pancakes, pikelets and other sourdough treats.
    Like many of you, I have found myself with limited access to ingredients and grocery stores due to the coronavirus outbreak. I filmed this video from the safety of my home, using the ingredients I had on hand. For flour, I recommend you use whole wheat flour, but you can use unbleached all purpose flour or even rye flour for this recipe. I hope that you enjoy the video, make lots of yummy sourdough and stay safe. The Sugar Geek Family is here for you!

    I left a jar of sourdough in the fridge for three years without doing anything to it. I recently removed a few grams and put the old stuff in a fresh jar, fed it water and flour, and after a few days of feeding, the sourdough was active again. Sourdough is very resilient!

    After searching through so many videos, I finally find one that explains things so well. Not just someone looking at the camera saying what to do or skipping steps, assuming I know what I am doing. Thank you.

    I've learned so much about sourdough starter from so many others but I have never heard anyone explain why we toss out half of the starter, thank you for explaining this. Now I know.

    I discovered a good way to make my active starter really grow and become bubbly after a feeding. What I did is not feed my active starter for two days (48 hours), and then when I did feed it I gave it some good sprouted rye flour. The starter then tripled in height! Starving the starter for a couple of days made it real hungry and when I fed it it really grew. It never happened like that when I fed it every 24 hours. My starter is about 2 months old and I have never refrigerated it , yet. I keep it fed daily with a King Arthur AP flour and when I am ready to make a bread I starve it a couple of days and then give it a sprouted rye feeding in the morning and when it triples in height I make a flour and then refrigerate it after making the dough and folding it a few times over a few hours. The bread is high-hydration and is 30% rye and 70% bread flour.

    So thankful you made this video! I was hesitant to make my own starter cuz everyone's been using rye flour, but so happy so see it comes out well even with using whole wheat flour. Also thankful for how detailed you explain every step including the levain. You're seriously so awesome <3

    I have a 2 year starter I just fed today. I'm excited to see how it grows. Can't wait to make some pancakes with it.

    Hi there! I made my very first starter using this video! Mine is VERY strong!! Thank you so much for your clear and useful info. I never had the guts to do it before. I'm baking my first loaf tomorrow. Will be using your other video for that.

    Thanks so much for the video. I got tired of waiting for my daughter to remember to bring me some starter, so I thought I would try and make my own. Great step by step tutorial and information.

    Thank you so much for your video! After watching many videos on this subject, this is the first time that I actually understand the whole process of yeast. No one teaches it better than you. I have tried to make 5 starters and none of them worked so I gave up. I'm beginning my new starter today with your recipe now that I understand it more. You're the best!

    You are great!!! Definitely helped me feel a lot less intimidated! I had been looking for a video that helped me make a starter for over an hour and Im so glad I came across your video!!! I loved it. My daughter watched it with me and wanted to say "I love you because you make the instructions to make sourdough starter for bread". Thank you!!!!!
