  • Experiment Time! Today I am going to experiment with alternative liquids to water. I will be trying out beer, milk and whey. We'll see what difference it makes in the handling, the crust, the crumb and the taste.

    I used Guinness once. The result was delicious, and not overpowering, plus of course, you get the colour from the Guinness. I have also used tomato puree, chopped sun-dried tomatoes and a handful of dried herbs. It doesn't rise quite as much but makes a delicious bread. I used to make this tomato bread with yeast, but the sourdough version is much better.

    Two other experiments I have done: both contained 60 - 80g of black treacle (molasses), 100g rye flour, 500g white flour, 12g salt. In the first, I added a handful of chopped walnuts and raisins. In the second, two teaspoons of fennel seeds. Both were really nice breads. Rye + treacle is a marriage made in heaven, but don't use too much treacle or the bread becomes too sweet.

    Thanks Sune for producing all these amazing videos and experiments! You always mentioned in your video that “the dough is ready after xx hours for shaping...” I struggle to judge when bulk fermentation is finished and can start to shape the dough. I know I can’t just follow the suggestion of a recipe as temperature affects a lot. Can you please make a video teaching us how to determine when fermentation is done using features other than temperature?
    Thank you so much!

      I agree. That’s probably the hardest thing for me. I think I usually ferment the dough too little. It’s hard to measure how much the dough has grown too, even then in a flat container. I guess it gets better with practice.

    Very nicely done Sune! I have on several occasions used plain water - that I've taken a medium sized, raw, peeled, and thinly sliced Russet potato, and boiled it to mush in said water. After it cooled down, I poured it through a fine sieve, which removed the majority of the potato solids. The resulting bread rose more, but didn't have much of an improvement with oven spring. The bread was quite moist after baking, and had a relatively strong flavor, with a close crumb. I'd be very curious what your results might be. I'm learning a great deal from your experiments!

    I've done one with unfermented kvass wort (wheat bread used for wort was sliced and heavily toasted after baking, no raisins or lemons added). Had too much, didn't fit in the fermenter, so I boiled it to reduce the amount (from 500ml to 300ml) and used that for bread instead of water. This gave crusty flavor to the crumb. I loved it.
    Right now I'm thinking about using different infusions to the water, first on my mind are medium toasted french oak chips - would love to get that taste but I somewhat fear getting too much tannins. Also Schlenkerla Rauchbier - bread tasting like sausage beer.

But with instant yeast it makes a really soft, nutty loaf with an open lacy crumb. Really super good with a mix of wholewheat, unbleached and whole spelt. Never fails!

    Hi Sune, I'm a newbie in Sourdough baking and been watching your videos for guidance. Thank you for your amazing videos! Coming from a country where alcoholic beverages are not easily available, I thought of substituting Beer with Soda Water. It would be great if you could do an Experiment Time with Soda Water. :) Many thanks in advance!!

    I’m not a huge fan of sourdough breads but I like the milder sourdough flavor of the long fermentation bread.
    I came to your channel to check out the scoring patterns. They certainly do make beautiful bread.
    I have only a oval Dutch oven so I need to get an oval bowl to proof in.
    I tried making the long fermentation bread with beer and didn’t care for it, since I love beer I was very surprised.
    I’ll have to give your sourdough recipe a try and perhaps I’ll like the flavor better.
    Thanks for your information. It was very helpful.
    I’m surprised you don’t have a ‘lam’, for sale here. I’ll find one on Amazon.

    Interesting video! I wonder if soy milk would give a different result as it's unlikely it has the protein you mentioned in cow milk. I regularly have whey from making soy yogurt, I'll give this a try...and the beer 🍻

    I'm thinking about trying to bake using a dark beer, like a porter or stout, instead of pilsner. It would be interesting to use an imperial beer too, which is sweeter and would add quite a bit of sugar to the mix, possibly changing the rate of fermentation.

    This is my favorite video of yours so far not that I have got to see them all YET!!! If you used the milk in a tangzhong bread how would that work and add a little extra milk to make up for the solids in it ? I grab husband's beer once in awhile and make bread with it and it is a hit, I don't like American beer, maybe I'll have to get hold of some Pilsner, but in bread it rich ens it, I think. THANK YOU for this FANTASTIC experiment.

    Hei! Nice video!
    I've tried making a sourdough with my ginger bug (for my ginger beer), so more lactic acid therefore a little bit more sweetness. The bread itself is like a typical sourdough (I'm doing a 80% hydration rate), airy with a nice crust, although developing the gluten quite fast.

  • @Brunojn

    I recently made a sourdough loaf with dry mushrooms. I hidrated the mushrooms with hot water, let it cool down and used both the mushrooms and the water on the loaf. It turned out pretty great, although I think using only the mushroom water would have been enough.

  • @peenut2222
    @peenut2222 4 года назад

    I use homemade kefir milk - because my body can't handle gluten and I figured the more fermentation the better. 😀
    Sourdough saved me from a life without bread! I even keep a quart size mason jar of starter (or as I like to think of it - premade pancake/waffle/crumpet mix) in my fridge at all times.

  • @martinwyke
    @martinwyke 4 года назад +1

    When making curds and whey; make sure to use either raw or pasteurised milk only, with homogenised, sterilised or UHT milk the protein is denatured and it will not separate correctly. In the UK we have milk bread, it is soft white and usually in small soft rolls, but only 30-50% of the hydration comes from the milk, the rest is water. On the milk front it might be worth testing skimmed vs semi-skimmed vs whole milk and whey. This would help identify if the difference was protein or fat related.

  • @73694410
    @73694410 4 года назад

    id you want a huge boom in flavor you should try adding unhopped wort instead of beer. you can make it yourself by extracting it from barley malt and even use the spent grains in your bread just like you would use seeds.
    for extraction you dont need fancy beermaking equipment. just steep the malt at around 68 C for an hour and strain it to get the liquid.
    hope you try it!

    Dear Sune, firstly, let me thank you for this very nice channel and content. I got into the sourdough business during the Covid quarantine (I am sure so did many people), and your videos have been very useful. I wonder, however, if it were not time to revise your Sourdough Bread for Beginner video. I think you have modified you cooking technique and sometimes I wish for a new videos showing every steps of your current baking process. I don't know if you have time or interest in doing so, but thanks in any case.

    As an experiment, how does it impact your loaf if you do the folds at different stages if the bulk ferment? i.e. all up front (the control), all at the end, dispersed throughout. I often have unexpected circumstances that stop me being able to do them all at the start, but not sure what impact that's having...
