      My starter hasn't passed the float test even though I followed your . It rose and fell a couple of times. On this 8th day what do you advice. I live in a hot climate. Also when you say 'feed it once a week ' does that mean you discard every time? Thank you for your great videos. You are a great Mom and teacher!

    Maybe a silly question (I'm on day 6 & I think things are looking good!) but I understand the feeding & maintenance. But do you have to discard as maintenance as well? Like you have some discard recipes.. but when do you do that? I guess put more simply, what is the difference between taking some starter to bake bread with vs discard to make pancakes?

    Can I feed my starter directly out of the fridge in the evening? Id feed my cold starter with AP flour, room temp water, then use in the morning to bake. Is this possible? That way it’s cold when fed and warm by morning? Will it potentially double in size by then?
    I’m just wondering how you time it from the fridge without having to start stretch and folds into the evening. Thanks!

    Hello Elizabeth I am new to this and very much enjoying your videos to get started. so my question is on day 7 when you only add the 35 grams of starter and the 140 grams of filtered water and flour ,do those measurments stay the same to keep making more bread. ?

    • @healthyelizabeth
      @healthyelizabeth  22 дня назад

      Hi there! That’s a great question. You can make as much starter as you like! That is just a good amount of starter to keep for most recipes, but you can feed it more or less. (You can keep the 35g of starter the same and feed it 75g of water and flour or 300g of water and flour depending on how much baking you plan to do.) 💛🍞

    Hi Elizabeth why did you use so much water on day 1? Also why did you reduce the amount of starter on day 6?

    • @healthyelizabeth
      @healthyelizabeth  2 месяца назад

      Using more water encourages the yeast and bacteria more than a drier environment. :)

  • @staciegreen9950
    @staciegreen9950 2 месяца назад

    I did see a recipe that calls for yeast too. Not sure about that, is it authentic starter?

    • @healthyelizabeth
      @healthyelizabeth  2 месяца назад

      No yeast in a sourdough starter although some breads use both, but true sourdough will just use the sourdough starter to leaven it :)

    I've got a question if you have the time. No laughing at me! 😂 I watched another one of your videos, about 10 times. The one with GREAT instruction on how to make several different types of SD bread. I went with the boules. I followed your instruction meticulously. However, I must have messed something up. Trying to figure out what that is. Last night I got it to the point where I stretched the dough a bit, then let sit in a bowl overnight. Woke up this morning to the dough having pushed the lid off and about 20% of it was on the counter. 😂 what I don't understand is that the bowl I used was very large in comparison to what you used. Any idea what could have went wrong? Should I toss the remaining dough, or still try to finish the process today? Thanks!!!

    • @healthyelizabeth
      @healthyelizabeth  Месяц назад

      😂 I love it! Thank you!! Could it be a warm temp in your home? 🧐 definitely bake it off! I bet it will be airy and beautiful.

    • @overthinker1506
      @overthinker1506 Месяц назад

      @healthyelizabeth I don't think so. We tend to keep our house pretty cool. At least compared to others. Maybe my bowl isn't quite as large as I thought. I set the dough out last night around 11pm. This morning at 530am, it wasn't overflowing. Then when my wife woke at 9am, she sent me pictures. 😆 I will try to bake it off and see what happens! Thanks so much for your videos. They help a ton! So consise and very thorough. I watched, then immediately ordered more flour, linens, scraper, and a Dutch. 😂 I'll let you know how it turns out later today!

    Pro tip: thats happen to me, specially in warmer parts of the world. If you do not clean the side of the jar after feeding and left it for few days, there is a possibility that a black mold will grow. Not in the starter just in the side. Now, I do not know if using the started is ok or not, as the mold formed in side not in the starter. Anyone let me know pls.

    Do you are feeding and discarding every day? At the same time each day? What if there is no liquid, what do you discarded and how much? This seems to be more for those who know something about sour dough starter, perhaps that is why I find it this confusing.

    • @healthyelizabeth
      @healthyelizabeth  2 месяца назад

      You feed it every 24 hours! Yes, roughly the same time is best. I scape a little of the liquid or dried out part on top then just measure the grams from it. 👍🏼
