Making Sourdough Bread, Bagels | Sprouts, Micro Greens and Sunshine

Today I decided to make some sourdough bread and some bagels. It's been almost a year since I made sourdough and at least 15 years since I made bagels. Sourdough is one of those things I have never quite gotten the hang of doing regularly, but I sure do love it. We also decided to take advantage of the sunshine and warm weather and go for a beautiful walk.

I was so intimidated when I started to learn how to make sourdough. I have grown to love it so much (naturally leavened bread is magical!) And now it is my full time job. I am a vendor at the farmers’ market in my city. I made over 3,500 loaves this past market season! 🤪

[@jenniferspeers2453]

Whoa. That's an awesome endeavor.

[@NaturallyCarol]

Can I ask you a question? I make 2-4 loaves each week and every single loaf sticks. I’ve used glass, cast iron, and stoneware pans. I put avocado oil in the bottom of the pan and they still stick. Is my dough too wet? I’m using Einkorn wheat.

[@cynthiatait7708]

Love Both options of hoodies. Might i remind you, YOU are a gift to our world. Thank you for loving your animals, children, husband, your outside BEAUTIFUL scenery, your plants....YOU ARE A BREATHE of FRESH AIR!!!

[@LittleMountainRanch]

That made me tear up, thank you sweet lady.

[@lucindagrant9790]

Love the larger one! Very cute! And...everything looks wonderful. The dough was perfect!

[@rebeccahandley2565]

I don't remember ever having the energy you have, it's amazing really. I havw been down 2 years with a broken knee and phnomia. I am binge watching you and enjoying every moment. Good job on taking such good care of your lungs during the fires. We live in the SIERRA MOUNTAINS just outside of Yosemite National Park, so we are no stranger to forest fires. Thank the Lord for our firefighters who keep us safe.

[@colleenmorrison3581]

Sourdough pancakes. Yummy. 1 cup starter, 1 cup flour, 1 cup water. Mix, cover, set on counter overnight. Next morning add 1 egg and 1 tsp salt. Adjust water to consistency you like. 1/2 cup on griddle and cook.

[@happyrapture1370]

Thank you for sharing Colleen!

[@jennifer6833]

Thank you for the recipe Colleen!

[@rkr5106]

And add some veg oil for waffles!

[@robinashultz7662]

And they freeze well if you have leftovers!

[@JoyAdele68]

Can you add vanilla?

[@weboughtaforest4235]

I think I like the larger logo!

[@MaverickONFIRE]

We all agree in our house the larger logo is the way to go:) Beautiful!

[@kayemoore]

I LOVE the larger, I’m a fan of color and shape so I really like the depth of the larger print you’ve created - beautiful and vibrant!

[@sarahtrew9331]

Exactly what I was thinking 🥰

[@ashleysocks4451]

I actually love the larger logo! And I started a sourdough starter this week, so this was a fun video to watch!

[@daphnehouchins1769]

When you wear your apron, if you crisscross your strings in the back. Then tie in the front. That way, you can hang a dish towel in the strings in the front. This helps me so much for wipping my hands.

[@kimigr7400]

Great tip!

[@joyfully_living]

I absolutely love the green sweatshirt exactly the way it is. I love the color and the logo. Hopefully, they are able to do plus sizes because I definitely want to buy one. I also love the idea of the “plant flowers everywhere shirt. It would be really pretty in a mauve, and I would buy at-shirt for summer with that design. I love your channel. I am so inspired to plant a garden this summer.

[@Gigi-fv9ky]

Yes on the larger plus sizes. I want one too. 😀

[@LittleMountainRanch]

Thank you so much! And yes, I’ll try my best to make sizes for as many body types as I can!

[@marytillison8392]

I love the Teal shows logo better!

[@hannahkayee831]

Agree!!!

[@shelleyhender8537]

LARGER pic and logo! BOTH…the vibrant RED and warm “sage” GREEN are 2 great choices! The colours you selected reflect the GARDEN beautifully…and reminded me…Spring is just around the corner! Oh the JOYS to behold!!🇨🇦☺🇨🇦

[@dianemaybee5635]

I love the larger logo and the colour you are wearing!!

[@lynnforrest3384]

I love the larger logo AND love that sage green colour!

[@dorykoszewski3162]

Love the larger logo. ❤

[@beatavincze]

Larger one looks better. And your farm is beautiful.

[@photororo52]

The larger Logo! Love it! Sourdough is so great, I have my grandmothers hand written recipe for sourdough pancakes! Such a treasure!

[@krishunter6355]

Your explanation on sourdough is by far the easiest to follow. Thank you

[@chrissyfrancis8952]

The larger logo for several reasons, IMO it looks better plus, it makes a better ad for your channel bc it’s easier to read when worn in public!!

[@bryanblanton2046]

My cousin lives in Alaska and she's actually from florida. The weather is soooo opposite, and thats where we are, in Florida. Strange, but yes i know before i say, i live with my Dad here in FLORIDA and i can only imagine. The whole car story and that book is just anazing. We actually can tomatoes a quite abit. Him, My father whatch ur videos together. Just enjoy every bit of it. Thanks for taking the time. Its very beautiful there.😊

[@evablcher8788]

Your logos are both super and I think they look so good. If you move them further up you may feel that you almost will swallow them!! But you know what your are doing so I look forward to seeing what you end up with. Oh your bread look so fantastic and you simply live in paradise the views are breathtaking.

[@JjJj-mx9ms]

Love the Larger design. The design is pretty and more impactful with the words lower like it is!!

[@samsal420]

OMGosh! I love watching your channel (newbie)! I miss Canada so much! My father was from Montreal and I spent most of my childhood living in Quebec and Ontario. I still have family in both Provence's but I rarely get to visit anymore. Last time I was there was in 2007 for my Grandmother's funeral (she was almost 101). I have lived in southeast Texas for over 30 years now and I still can't stand it! I so miss the 4 seasons... we only have 1 down here... HOT! I also love to listen to your accents which remind me so much of my childhood and family members that I miss so much. I'm so glad I found your channel!

[@deanolson3804]

Bread, I love bread especially home made , just ask my wife.(dough is my favorite). Never tried sourdough seems like it takes so much time. The hoodie you have on looks fine. Thank's, looks like were making fresh bread on Sunday. Cheers, keep the faith. Dean

[@MrRKWRIGHT]

Good evening Little Mountain Ranch. That homemade sourdough bread and those bagels looks absolutely delicious.

[@storytellersharonkirkclift6399]

The logo is so pretty. I definitely like the larger one. This is my first time on your channel. Love it! I'm glad I found y'all.

[@barbaranielsen2888]

Wow! No wonder you are tired! Thank you for teaching me bagels and sour dough instructions!

[@jennifermackie2913]

Oh my. I am sooo jealous of your blue skies! We are grey and wet until the end of March...day in, day out (south western BC).

[@paulaelves5160]

i love the larger one and green colour is my fave,,going to try sprouts in a jar, will be a perfect match with my egg mayonaise and potato salad xxx

[@donnahanson1691]

Bigger logo like on the green Hoodie looks much better. Love your site. Your positivity brightens my day. Your kids are so respectful, love it. I tell many about your sledding.

[@oldmilllife7494]

Hey Chelsea from the UK, just did my first canning and love watching your vids, we are fairly rural and have land and animals so keep saying we are homesteading 😂 love it

[@Kelly.A.]

Love the larger logo.

[@debbiemcelwain3279]

I love the larger logo on the sweatshirt. I think your idea of moving it higher is a good one!

[@elizabethkelly9039]

Hi Chelsea: I love your videos. Like you, I rarely wear an apron, even though I have them. One suggestion. Double the length of the tie so that it can be wrapped around and tied in the front. That way, you can loop a towel through it if you need it to dry your hands or lift something hot.

[@toniatalley1977]

I love the logo exactly how it is on the beautiful green hoodie. The larger logo is amazing!!!

[@pamscollageportraits]

The larger logo for sure for the hoodies and T's. Your channel is inspiring, thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience. God bless you and your household.

[@jmt7676]

Love the larger logo. And that green is beautiful. Thank you for sharing your day.

[@lynsmith2698]

Hi Chelsea. Love the green shirt with the big logo. But both are lovely. Such a wonderful picture. Your sourdough recipe is very similar to mine. So easy and turns out so good. Great video, enjoy this nice weather, it appears it’s around for a while. Cheers ❄️🇨🇦❄️

[@deno.520]

Julie was the first channel I started watching too! Love following along on your daily adventures. Thank you for always being so delightful and inspiring.

[@sallyhostetter2820]

I like the larger logo. I love sourdough bread.

[@sarahmoore405]

The larger logo is perfect and I love the color of the larger one too!

[@bellaloba2684]

Much prefer the larger logo! it looks great! I am graphic designer btw, i would do larger one which is much more legible from far away, other size gets lost in hoodie.

[@erinkinney4792]

I LOVE the larger logo!!! In fact, when I first saw it, I got super excited, hoping you were going to announce that they're available (especially that green one 🤗). Fingers🤞that you'll carry it in larger sizes, too. I like to wear my sweaters on the bigger side.

[@jessicajackson9164]

Hi, I like the larger Little Mountain logo, because you can easily read it from far.

[@shelleymoore7691]

I like the larger logo

[@brodiecouch174]

My kids love watching your videos, you give us so much inspiration in the kitchen and myself so much inspiration to power through the day. I have four kids all young ages and love gardening as well, I'd say it's a hobby but in reality it's an obsession. I prefer the larger logo :) We live in Vernon BC

[@LittleMountainRanch]

I'm so glad!

[@beckyb4068]

I like the larger logo too!

[@Gigi-fv9ky]

I like the larger logo much better. Also love that soft sage green color.

[@jennan3407]

We love the larger logo! So exciting!!

[@kellyharbaugh9391]

It’s very beautiful I would loose a crop admiring that scenery.

[@juneauesque]

Echoing the majority in choice of large logo, lovely green color, and as large a size you can offer. ☺️

[@wrinklesandsprinkles]

Chelsea, I like the larger logo on the green hoodie exactly like the one you’re wearing! Hope you and your family are doing well. Cheers, Doc❤

[@LittleMountainRanch]

Thank you! You too!

[@staceysteel]

I like both! However prefer the smaller up-high logo in the beautiful green colour! Beautiful designs 🌺

[@navaleah8663]

You can freeze dry blueberries, strawberries, et cetera, et cetera, grind them to powder, mix with cream cheese, and have a fancy spread for your bagels. You can also chop nuts to mix with the cream cheese, but how small or large you chop them is personal choice.

[@yvonnedijstelbloem1187]

i like the larger logo

[@melissawilliams648]

I love the sweatshirts! I would prefer the larger design. It is easier to see all the beautiful detail in the picture.

[@whitestone4401]

I vote for the larger logo. Love the green hoodie.

[@shawnrecore6515]

Love the larger logo and the color that you are wearing. Makes me think of spring!

[@carolinehorne6505]

Thank you Chelsea, you have encouraged me to start my sourdough starter which is sat in my fridge. Xx

[@lindadelzer423]

I was just thinking how much I liked the green one, and you talked about them.😅 Can't say which one I like best. I like both of them.😊

[@marilynprietto1162]

Definitely the larger design. Can’t wait to see the Plant flowers everywhere. Love your channel🌻

[@brelsfordfamilyhomestead]

The recipe for sourdough bagels in the book, Artisan Sourdough Made Simple is really good. My kids and hubby devoured them.

[@laurabooker6227]

I love the larger logo. Love watching your videos. Love the little 🐷

[@aloras405]

The brownish liquid that might form is called hooch. It means your starter is hungry and needs to be fed more.

[@khome707]

I like both sizes of the designs. I do love that seafoam green color you are wearing also. Thank you for the quick instructions on how to make sourdough starter. I have been wanting to try it but had never got around to reading or watching someone else. I feel I can do it now after your instructions, sounds easy enough! :) You have also inspired me to try some sprouts and microgreens. Keep up the great videos :)

[@crystalpearson2750]

Hi little mountain ranch I love the large logo especially in the color your wearing please let us know as soon as there up for sale I will definitely be getting one. Your farm is beautifull here in Calgary we have been warm weather to it makes it so much easier to get up and out the door to catch the sun rises.great video as always.

[@patbeaudoin4237]

The larger logo is nicer I think.I definitely think I'm going to try growing those sprouts thanks for sharing. 🙂🇨🇦❤

[@wandafigueroa6281]

Try growing sunflowers… they grow as fast as the peas and also delicious

[@debbiemusgrove676]

I didn’t see anything wrong with that bread. It looked absolutely amazing.

[@Kazacks9602]

Love the colour of the larger one with the larger logo.

[@angievictory2332]

Always a pleasure to join you throughout your day. Everything looks amazing. I like the larger logo. But both are great

[@kari-gs4eq]

I don't make bagels very often because my recipe has an overnight rest in the fridge and that takes a lot of room. A mixture of rice flour and wheat flour will prevent sticking on your proofing baskets. You won't need parchment either.

[@teresastuart4383]

I got married August of 1992. We will celebrate our 32 wedding anniversary this year.

[@tabithabrown8215]

The logo is perfect on the green

[@susancampbell7279]

Yum

[@susan6942]

You should use a drop cloth for your aprons they work awesome and it’s cheep for the amount of fabric you get and love your bracelet so cute

[@dorfbieneamfeld5773]

I like both Logos. The sweater are amazing.

[@leswilliams4022]

Larger looks more proportional. Enjoyed your walk.

[@irasemabiggs6434]

Hello,love to see you baking bread and bagels. I would love to have your recipe for bagels they look amazing. I haven't done sourdough yet makes me a little nervous but one of this days I will be brave and do it. Thank you so much. Love watching your videos. Blessings

[@linamora4339]

Thank you Chelsea!

[@lorettalindamood1345]

I like the one you have on and the color as well.

[@karenm7433]

I like the larger one

[@nancytidd51]

Oh, almost forgot...I prefer the larger logo and I also love the color of the sweatshirt you were wearing!

[@donaecapps4324]

Hi Chelsea! Love the larger logo and that green is beautiful. I too am eating round one of alfalfa sprouts and have started a sandwich crunch sprout mix. Pea and sunflower seeds for microgreens are en route from west coast seeds. I like that you are so nearby, I find a lot of other information irrelevant...it is different growing here...and I love the challenge! Have a beautiful, unseasonably warm day. Please give your lovely sows a scritchy scratch from me, they are such great mamas.❤-Donae

[@charlenecapronloomis3395]

Love the larger design sweater that you had on in the green. I take a very large size so I am sure it won't fit, but giving my thoughts. Love you folks. Watch often.

[@kathymickle6915]

I like the smaller logo. Thank you for all the great info. In this video.

[@wilderchilder2901]

Smaller logo is my preference. ❤

[@elizabethschaub2972]

Large image on the sweatshirt for sure! So cute and I thought about how I loved your sweatshirt at the beginning of the video!

[@samq7400]

I love the larger design! I think it worked with that colour and it was beautiful!!

[@COWELLGIRL]

Awesomeness!

[@perseverancethroughpositiv3844]

I like the larger one best. Maybe make the font a little bit Bolder so it can be seen from further away. Very cute and I like the color of the hoodie you’re wearing too.

[@parnellbeth]

Like the larger logo. You need a version in the future that includes the pigs and cows too.

[@LittleMountainRanch]

Will do!😊

[@KAStodgell]

Pizza dough with sour dough starter is fabulous

[@Sarah-zg5qs]

I like both sweaters tbh. I've been baking with sourdough for the last 13 years. I put it also in cakes, cookies , pie crusts, pizza dough, and pasta. Your breads look delicious, don't see anything wrong with them. I love the winter this year in southern Manitoba, great walking weather it's been so warm.

[@kimgrant891]

I love the larger logo. I also love the color of the one you are wearing!!!!

[@conniehubbard2142]

I love the logo just the way it is…it’s perfect!!!💗

[@growingaHome]

I love the larger logo...and the color is perfect!

[@diannemcintyre2773]

I love the larger one! And that green color sweatshirt is awesome too!

[@sarahludos7970]

I love the larger one and the green one.

[@chuckrock1561]

We love the green sweatshirt with the larger logo! Would be interested in tshirts or sweatshirts without the hood on it! We love your channel! 😊
