  • How to Make Sour Dough Starter Day 1 From Scratch
    Make sure, for fun, you give your sourdough starter a name! It is a living thing, after all! haha
    This is the first of nine videos, creating sourdough starter from scratch! Each day we will come back, together, and feed it and grow it. After 9 days, we should have a beautiful starter that we can use to make bread! Fingers crossed! haha
    I am so nervous and excited!
    OK......here are some materials that may help you:

    Starter - Day 1
    50 grams of flour (rye or whole wheat are best but all purpose and bread flour can work too)
    50 grams of non-chlorinated water
    Mix together in a large glass jar and then put it in a dark warm place.

    Dear Heather. I came across your channel a short time ago when your story of the terrible tragedy popped up on my video list. I am so sorry that I found you this way but I am grateful I did find you. I have been binge watching your videos and loving them. You have such a beautiful onscreen presence and I love how real your videos are i.e. kids chattering in the background or your husband asking if there is something he can taste lol. I am so sorry for the loss you are all going through. What I really want to tell you though is that you are amazing. You are so strong and I can see your faith in your words and the way you can still smile. You have experienced something so awful yet you are still able to be an inspiration to all. God bless you and your precious babies. In the midst of all of this you still have so much to smile about. God is good. 🙏

    I know you made this series of videos two years ago, but I just found them and beginning my Starter today, 1-15-22. Using wheat flour and hoping it works for me. Years ago I was given a Starter and directions for feeding it. The woman who gave it to me called it Friendship Starter since you were instructed to share the starter. It also came with instructions for making a fruit bread. If only I’d known then what a treasure it was. Sure wish I still had it today. The woman who gifted me didn’t realize exactly what she had either.

    I’m a late comer but I am starting my sourdough starter today. I have kept up with your terrible accident and lose. I started to watch your utube channel right before your accident. I have learned so much from your different utube teachings. You are such a special person and I hope you will feel up to starting up again soon. You are an excellent teacher and I thank you for sharing what you have learned with all of us. May God continue to bless you and your family. You are truly an inspiration to me. I praise Him that He has great plans for your future and you will grow each day with Him.

    Hey Heather, I was just thinking about this community sourdough effort and had an idea. See whatcha think. Every area of the country has their own unique airborne yeast, all tasting differently. (At least that's what I've heard.) It would be so cool to have folks exchange some of their Sourdough Starters with each other, baking some bread, and comparing the differences, if any! Love ya....

    My Dad was a Baker and made the BEST Sourdough Bread! He had his 'secret' recipe for his Starter, and didn't share it with anyone, except 1 Female Cousin. After YEARS of bugging her, she finally relented and told me his 'secret' ingredient.... Pineapple Juice instead of Distilled or Filtered water for the 1st day ONLY. After the first day, it was flour and Distilled or Filtered water. Now, with the self-quarantined going on, this is as good a time as any to see if I can find the ingredients and see about starting my own Starter! I will follow you as you go through your process! THANK YOU!! =)

    I just got mine started!! I Love to bake and have never tried sour dough. I am so excited to do this with you. I had started my research on sourdough after seeing you had started Walter. I decided to wait and just follow you in the process, so glad I did. Thank you for all of your videos! I learned how to can from you, I am now addicted and a jar hoarder 🤣😂🤣 Have a Blessed Day!❤️🤗
