Rewana bread bug

[@eddiegilbertwakefield3301]

Hey, you said don't add any salt when you were mashing it then you said add a teaspoon of salt, so which is it, add salt or not?

[@zninz5368]

She meant sugar

I have made Rewena bread the easy way with yeast once before and now I am attempting to make my first loaf with a bug, have just made my dough and it is resting, wish me luck haha and thank you for your recipe :)

[@JoJo-ib8og]

Kia ora, I want to keep my bug going and I want to store my bug, in saying this, do I put some of the bug starter aside for storage or do I break off a piece of the dough to store?, also, how do I go about storing my bug please for later use?. I like the idea of the jam jar with the raw potato, what are other common ways of storage. Nga mihi

Hi, I have been working on getting my bug established since Sunday. It's foamy on top with a few bigger bubbles and some smaller bubbles visible down the sides of the jar. Is it okay to give it a try now? I read in one recipe that it should be "bubbling madly' and in another that it needs to "double in size" before use.

[@georgiegirlization]

I'd go for the double in size before using it. Not always an exact science tho. Every one has their own way of interacting with their bug. It took me several attempts before I got it right.

Thanks so much for sharing! :) Going to give this a go asap!

[@RMCJ41]

how many bread can this make? and how much do you save when you make your bread please?

[@nannygee5079]

RMCJ41 this makes a loaf, I store about 1/4 cup but this is just for my home use and I build again from there

[@kamauwikeepawikk9520]

Kiaora koe.e te kai mahi. I have always been asked do I feed the bug? In my experience I have never fed my bug every day if at all. It is very interesting, but if if works for you very well, however you may end up with a large amount you don't want. Simplest way is just leave in the fridge in closed jam jar with a raw potato. This will last forever until needed then only do i feed it and leave in a warm place no sugar added. Incidentally the sugar is already in there from the start.

Thank you for sharing Nga mihi 😊

Hi Nanny Gee, I am confused at 0.38 you say add a teaspoon of salt yet you say before that and after than definitely don't add salt, I wait your clarification, kiaora

[@georgiegirlization]

Kiaora koe, salt can hinder the raising of the bread, I may have said it in error.

[@petemunro2932]

I can't wait to start this. I'm sorry I'm pretty thick but how much starter do you add to flour or is it all by feel. And how do you store it to use whenever. Thanks so much for the lesson.

[@melissaockey1346]

Any ideas if you don’t have a hot water cupboard?

[@georgiegirlization]

put it in a warm place, out of direct sunlight, some people place on top of the fridge, cover it tho.

[@melissaockey1346]

georgiegirlization ok thanks

[@moanakeefe7912]

Kia Ora Nanny Gee can we leave it on the bench during the day if the day is fine while we are at mahi?

[@nannygee5079]

Moana Keefe ae you can, just cover it with a damp teatowel

kiaora neff

[@moonlightlady9703]

She says at 28s "... mash it up, don't add any salt to it" and then 37s "we're going to add a teaspoon of salt to that" So Confused!

[@georgiegirlization]

That was a slip of the tongue, I was meant to say sugar.
