Easy to Make Sourdough Starter Using Potato Flakes

Here is the video on how to make the bread kzbin.info/www/bejne/mJeZq62DirJ_r9U

This is the bread my Dad's second wife made. We all loved it and I made it for years. They were both tragically killed in a horrific car accident in July of 2005. And I had lost the recipe. She has three daughters and oddly enough, none of them had it. I tried to do it from memory several times but something wasn't right. I'm 99% sure this is it. Thanks so much!

[@SouthernFoodJunkie]

So sorry to hear of their passing. I truly hope this is the one! Thanks for sharing.

[@sueroberts7048]

This is recipe I used to use for years., my boys and neighbor boys loved it. They would get off bus and come running to sample the bread

[@SouthernFoodJunkie]

I love when mom took it out the oven and I’d get a hot slice with butter! So yummy. Thanks for sharing that.

[@rebeccawigginsknowles8739]

A tore my rotator cuff and ruptured my bicep and in the process of having surgery and recuperating etcetera I let my sourdough starter go too long and my bread wasn't rising correctly. I was so glad to find your recipe for the starter!

[@SouthernFoodJunkie]

Sorry to hear of your struggles! I’m glad your on the mend d and back baking bread 💪

[@mythreechildren1737]

I used to make this bread a few years ago, but I lost my starter recipe. This has been so helpful! I had no idea that I could feed it every day and make it every day! That was a big revelation! My kids will be so happy to hear that! Thank you!

[@SouthernFoodJunkie]

Yes! I’m glad it helped out and know you can make it everyday!

[@johnlamb3056]

Ta daaaa! Did it! My bread was delicious and gorgeous (I divided the dough into 3 loaves). I had a neighbor give this starter to me in 1987 and I made bread until 2009 when I moved to another state and didn't feed my starter. I am now back in the saddle and the bread baking business! Thank you!

[@SouthernFoodJunkie]

John that is awesome buddy. I’m so glad it worked out for you! Thanks for the comments.

[@debbymiller5570]

Thank you for this starter for sourdough. When I lived in Mississippi I was given a starter from a friend. At that time I made bread at least once a week. I tried to make a starter using flour but I didn't do something right. So i went back to the potato flakes but didn't have have the initial directions. I typed in what I wanted and you were the first video to pop up. So glad I found you. God bless y'all. 🥰🤗😇😋🤤🙏🙏🙏

[@SouthernFoodJunkie]

You are welcome 🙏 I hope it does great for you.

[@annaberlin1257]

I made this bread years ago and started searching for a starter, I believe this is it. It is a delish bread. I used to bake 7:00 it in a bunt pan!!!

[@SouthernFoodJunkie]

I really love it too. So good. What do you mean and bring in a bunt pan? I always use bread pans when baking. Thanks.

[@annaberlin1257]

I am replying about the bunt pan. I just put the dough in it in a pretty ring . Slice it like cake!

[@SouthernFoodJunkie]

Oh ok. I understand now. Thanks for sharing that!

[@suedent5767]

You are a (MY) life saver! My sourdough starter of 40 years; died! I have been wanting to know how it was started & no one could tell me. I started naking bread since 1982 when I was given a cup of it. My friend who gave it to me got it from her mother, who got it from her mother and so on! So you can imagine 😊 how excited I was when I came across your video! I'm gonna start it today! By the way, I still have the starter in my refrigerator but I guess it's to weak to rise. THANK YOU SO MUCH!

[@SouthernFoodJunkie]

This is a awesome comment. Thanks for sharing. I truly appreciate it.

Making homemade bread is so good. I use to be in all the pizza dough making and some breads. Love banana bread. Fun video. Hope you and your family are well. My mom has Covid and high risk so keep praying my friend. Take care.

[@SouthernFoodJunkie]

Yes homemade bread is so good! I like making pizza dough as well. Banana nut bread is my favorite! Praying buddy. Stay safe.

This is cool. Not sure I've ever seen anyone do it this way before.

[@SouthernFoodJunkie]

It’s so easy and it makes such wonderful bread. Could replace homemade white bread. This is a very light sour tasting bread that is fluffy and sweeter than traditional sourdough. Give it a Go bro!

I just ate me a slice a little but ago lol. I made this so I could post it on my website really. But if nothing else, I have all my recipes online to look back on when I need them 🤣 Give it a try brother. I’m telling ya, it’s so good.

[@debbievinsant4610]

I’ve been making this bread for years I’ve tried other bread and it doesn’t hold a candle to potato flake bread I have to let my starter die occasionally because you will gain weight baking this bread! I use 1 cup warm water 1/2 cup sugar and 3 tbs potato flake 1 package of yeast makes 3 loaves I set it on counter for 3 days feed it 1/2 cup sugar 1 cup water and 3 tablespoons potato flake leave set another hour or so then place in the fridge for 3 days then I make bread using bread flour and 1 cup of my starter. I highly recommend bread flour it does make a difference trust me in a pinch I use all purpose flour but my bread doesn’t have the same consistency still good though. It’s great you are sharing this I think the whole world should be baking their own bread!

[@SouthernFoodJunkie]

Yes it is the best bread! I agree bread flour makes a difference! I use that sometimes too. Thanks so much Debbie. I appreciate your comment.

[@SouthernFoodJunkie]

Yes! It’s so good. I got a cinnamon roll recipe too but I think it’s only on my website and not on here. Like you said, it makes both great. Thanks for sharing.

[@SouthernFoodJunkie]

It’s ready after 5 days if you are just making it. Otherwise on a regular basis you feed it and then it’s ready to use in 6-8 hours afterwards.

[@helengillette4339]

I used to make sour dough bread many years ago. I am glad that I found your starter recipe, as I wanted to surprise my daughter with cinnamon rolls for Thanksgiving. My question is do you have to wait a full five days for the starter to ferment before feeding it and using it for a recipe? Thanks in advance.

[@SouthernFoodJunkie]

I have never tried it before the 5 days on the first time. I appreciate you trying out recipe. I have a cinnamon roll recipe using this starter on my website! Southernfoodjunkie.com.

[@Keaton-Casablanca]

I have been using a Potato Flake Starter that a friend gave me some time ago. (She lives in another town.) I usually keep two Starters, just in case something happens to one, then I have the other one. I had planned to make bread so I fed my starter. I decided to mix both starters together so both would be fresh. (That was a bad decision.) I had my two starter mix in the oven with the light on to keep it warm. A friend brought over a freshly made raw pizza. He didn't know I had my starter mix in the oven, so he came in and turned on the oven to 425 degrees!!!! Yep, he killed my two starters. So I am using your recipe to make a new starter. I am on day two. I will let you know how it goes.

[@SouthernFoodJunkie]

Oh no! I had something similar happened two weeks ago. I had mixed up a batch of dough, I stuck it in the oven to rise. They both were in plastic bowls. My wife came along and turned the oven on to preheat the oven without checking to see if anything was in it. Yep,dripping plastic all in the oven!! Lol 😆

It is so good. It also makes awesome French toast! Thanks for sharing your comment. I really appreciate it.

[@bonniesbestcreations6817]

Just found this. My first starter has liquid on top of flakes. Is that normal? Do I stir whip waiting the first 5 days or just leave it. Thanks so much

[@SouthernFoodJunkie]

This starter will be watery, not thick like traditional sourdough starter. I usually stir once a day. I hope that helps.

[@publishwithintegrity11]

Hi, thank you for the clip! I am new to this kind of starter making: I accidentally bought the fast rise yeast not the original. Today is day 3 that it is sitting out developing. I heard that I could feed it in the 3rd day and it will still rise bread. My question is: can the fast rising yeast be a substitute for the regular yeast to make the starter ?

[@SouthernFoodJunkie]

I have not officially tried that yeast but I think it should still be fine. Good luck with it!

Can I use instant dry yeast? I don't have the active one. Also my house is about 65 degrees. Any tips on how to keep this at this temperature? Wanna do sourdough potato rolls for next weekend. Thanks

[@SouthernFoodJunkie]

It should still work. Maybe set it near a sunny window or place it in an oven with the light on. Just remember to check your oven before preheating to cook. Ask me how I know 🤣🤣

[@LakeGitcheGumee]

Very helpful. Thanks

[@SouthernFoodJunkie]

Thanks so much!

[@eastcoastwilly1373]

So can you change the starter feeding starch to unbleached flour after the 5 days ? Sorry I may have missed that part.

[@SouthernFoodJunkie]

No you continue to use potato flake starter. This isn’t a traditional sourdough but a potato flake sourdough. It makes a soft and sweeter more white bread type of sourdough. It’s very yummy too!

[@eastcoastwilly1373]

@SouthernFoodJunkie awesome thanks so much for the info 😀

[@SouthernFoodJunkie]

@@eastcoastwilly1373 You’re welcome!

[@shanedavis9309]

I only used 1 packet of the Active Dry Yeast when i made my starter. Im on day 5 now. I just fed it. Will the one packet of Yeast be enough?

[@SouthernFoodJunkie]

Give it a try. It might be.

[@shanedavis9309]

I tried it. I mixed everything up this afternoon about 12:30 And it’s now 5:00 here and has barely risen at all.

[@SouthernFoodJunkie]

I hate to hear that. I would think it would still work since the active dry yeast kicks it off then wild yeast take over. It may take a couple of feeding cycles to build up since you started with a lesser amount. I haven’t experimented with it to see if this works or not.

[@shanedavis9309]

@@SouthernFoodJunkie thanks for the info i did get it cooked it turned out pretty good. It just took a little more time to rise.

@ That’s awesome!

[@cherylroberts3395]

My starter has been in the fridge and now is ready to get out to make bread. Do I feed the starter when I get it out of the fridge or wait until room temperature, WHEN do I feed it? Awesome video!

[@SouthernFoodJunkie]

I feed mine right away then let it sit for 6-8 hours before making bread.

[@annamariebrown7617]

So after taking a cup out to make my bread than feeding the starter do I add yeast each time

[@SouthernFoodJunkie]

No. You don’t add yeast anymore you feed it first m. Then let it sit for 6 to 8 hours. Then take out the cup of stater to make your bread with.

[@ginacarr9717]

Does it make the starter salty by using that brand? Would Bob's red mill natural be better?Yeast doesn't usually like a salty environment

[@SouthernFoodJunkie]

I have not noticed it being salty. I think Bobs red mill would work for this recipe.

[@christijones7814]

Thanks for making this video. A coworker gave me a starter many years ago. I made bread a few times with it and it was soooo good. Can’t wait for my starter to be ready to make some bread. QUESTION: when you store in refrigerator, do you use a plastic lid or still use the paper towel? I’m going to be out of town next month for 2 weeks and it won’t get fed.

[@SouthernFoodJunkie]

I use a paper towel on mine and have for many years. If you use a plastic lid drill a few holes in or or leave it loose on top. I’ve gone a month without feeding mine but mine have been around a while. I think it should be fine though. Thanks for your comment! It does make awesome bread! I love it!

[@tinahall7858]

what lid do u store the started in the ice box ? thanks

[@SouthernFoodJunkie]

I prefer to use a coffee filter with a rubber band. Works great, cheap, and last a long time.

[@melissaspencer8341]

Thanks do you make sour dough rolls? If so how do you make them?

[@SouthernFoodJunkie]

I am working in a recipe for that now! Stayed tuned!

[@vickiethompson6373]

Also does it make good bread the first time you feed it or is it best to discard it a few times before making bread from a new starter

[@SouthernFoodJunkie]

I’ve made it with the first time but it gets better with age. It’s still good the first time too though.

[@susanhettinger5390]

Quick question: I probably missed this detail in your video-once your starter is established and you feed it for baking, how long do you let it sit before using it? I used this starter and your bread recipe years ago but recently have had issues with my bread. I’m wondering is I’m letting the starter sit too long and maybe over proofing my bread? Help!

[@SouthernFoodJunkie]

Once I feed it, I typically let it sit for 6-8 hours. This is for an already made starter that has gone through the 5 day process. This is how I work it: I get it out first thing in the am and feed it, then that evening I use it to mix up the bread for the first rise. I let that rise overnight, then punch it down in the AM and knead, then split and form into two loafs. Then place in bread pans for second rise. I let it rise a second time until it doubles, usually about 2-3 hours. Then bake it.

[@barbarareed878]

can you add a flavored potato flake, like buttery potato flakes

[@SouthernFoodJunkie]

I would t recommend it. I would use plain. I’m not sure what the extra stuff would do to the yeast. It’s possible it would be fine but I’ve never tried it.

[@sarahperkins9019]

When do you put it in the fridge? An how long do you leave it out?

[@SouthernFoodJunkie]

When making the starter for the first time, you will leave it out for 5 days. After the 5th day you will take a cup out then put the remaining starter up in the refrigerator. You can use that cup to make bread. It needs to stay refrigerated until your ready to make bread at which point you get it out, feed it, leave it sitting for 6 to 8 hours, then take out a cup to make bread with. You will feed it at least every 5 days. If you don’t want to make bread that often you can discard the cup or give it to a friend so they can have a starter. You can make it everyday if you wish by feeding it every day or stretch it out to every 5 days etc.

I was gifted the discard part today. It’s very liquidy. Should I add the flakes, sugar,and water tonight ? And then keep it on my counter till it’s ready ?

[@SouthernFoodJunkie]

It should be very liquid. You will feed it 5 days after the person that gave it to you feed it. So if the just got the discard off of their starter yesterday, wait 5 days before feeding it. I hope that helps. Thanks.

@@SouthernFoodJunkie oops I fed it last nite. Same day she gave it to me now what ? Did I kill it ?

[@SouthernFoodJunkie]

@@thepickypainter9854 You can actually feed it everyday if you use it everyday. Make sure to take the 1 cup of starter off of it after 6-8 hours after you have fed it. You can make bread with that cup or you can give it to someone to use. There are also many recipes to use the discard with as well.

Why does potato flakes work for making starter?

[@SouthernFoodJunkie]

It takes the place of flour in a traditional sourdough starter. The microbes feed on the sugar and potato flakes to produce the fermentation that causes the rise in the bread.

Hey Ronnie, this is the fifth day of using your recipe to make a new patato flake starter. I am the type, if I am going to do something, I over_do it,,,,lol. I ended up making four different jars of starters. I know, I only need one, but for two or three days I would think I had put my dough proofer too high, so I would make another starter, then I got confused and I couldn't remember if I had used yeast in both of them so I added yeast to the two I had and made a third jar of starter. I got them out and looked real closely and nothing was bubbling, so I made a fourth jar of starter,,,,,lol. Today was the big day, were my jars going to give birth or not??? I got the first jar out,,,,,OH BOY THAT JAR WAS BUBBLING. I got the second jar out,,,,I WAS THE FATHER OF TWINS, it was also bubbling. I got the third jar out and,,,,I WAS THE PROUD FATHER OF TRIPLETS, it was also bubbling. Then came the bad news, my fourth jar was not bubbling and looked like thin watered-down milk. I had to pour it down the sink. I was kind of sad, then I said,,,,"Hey proud father of triplets, you only need one of the starters to work and you have three wildly bubbling babies."

I knew a lady that came from Louisiana. And she brought some potatoes back with her. And she led on like it could not be made, and she said it was a secret of how it was made. But I knew it was very simple to make I just didn't know all the opponents. But you, created the same kind of yeast that she said that could not be created or she let on that it could not be duplicated. Some people you just can't trust, to get the truth out of them.

[@SouthernFoodJunkie]

Yes it is simple to make. I have never made it from real potatoes but I had one viewer try it and it worked for her. This is started with commercial yeast and then the wild yeast take over.

But you can find the recipe and how to feed the Yeast, to where you'll have it around to make bread every week. Just look on KZbin for sourdough bread made out of potato flakes.
