You can read about this in detail in my free book called “The Sourdough Framework”. You can get it here: breadco.de/book. You can support the project with a donation, but there is absolutely no knead. I believe information like this should be free and accessible to everyone. The book is made for everyone who wants to understand the important details when making sourdough bread. Thank you!

Thank you

I've tried to donate, but Ko-Fi is extremely buggy, the transaction didn't work for me and pages had trouble loading. Maybe it's because I'm from the states? Whatever the case, I can't navigate the site properly and donate without the pages timing out.

While social media does polarize people, I think educational or instructional videos like this one do not polarize and are probably not pushed by the algorithm precisely for that reason. At least I think it really isn't polarizing. Thanks for posting this - the bread looks yummy and I really don't want to use the oven in the summer.

[@the_bread_code]

Thanks 🙏🏻. Agreed but the way how videos are recommended is through the algorithm. That only works with a clickbait and catchy thumbnail 😅

That's true since I learned about sourdough making, I never buy yeast anymore, and also the bread comes out more flavorful rather than using commercial yeast ✌️

if you're going to make bannocks (thick flat bread) you need to be flipping it every 15-30 seconds, at least initially, this seals the surface and stops the puffing up

Hello friend! I love your enthusiasm and I have watched lots of your videos this evening...it is nearly 1:30am now! I am looking for help to make a sourdough recipe for either Spelt or gluten-free bread that is relatively easy to also convert to a pizza base. It doesn't have to be Italian perfect, but it would be nice to get something light and crepe! I have heard that you can add a little whey protein powder to enhance the colour, flavour and texture of GF flours. Can you suggest one? I can't eat lentils or corn, but I am good with rice and Tapioca. Thank you if you can help me!

[@suzanmhich7645]

Hi , thank you for the video, I have a question, is it ok to replace the all purpose flour with bread flour, and is there any adjustments to the recipe for the replacement. Thank you again, I am a beginner and you have simplified the process for making sourdough bread for me , I am still trying to perfect it , however I have baked a loaf yesterday and I am very satisfied with the result 😊

[@helenjohnson7583]

Now you’ve REALLY simplified this! No excuses recipe!! Thanks!

[@the_bread_code]

So true right? That was my main goal here. Have something I can easily share with interested people.

[@mediviesti]

This is great info. I have a question. When you remove some starter to make your dough, there is quite a bit of starter left in the jar. You then say to use the dough you extracted (for testing the rise) as the starter for your next dough. At this point, did you throw away what was left in the jar or are you adding that extracted piece to what's in the jar?

[@the_bread_code]

Both options work well to make another starter. If I don't use the left overs to make another starter I store all the rest in a big jar in my fridge. I make a bread out of this every once in a while. You could also mix in a bit of salt and bake in the pan directly.

[@RamaSivamani]

Instead of extracting a small piece of the dough to use for a fermentation meter if you just let your whole dough rise in a clear container you can mark the container and see if it's risen to the right amount. I use a clear fermentation container so it works out pretty well.

[@the_bread_code]

Great comment. It's a good trick too 🤗

[@the_bread_code]

Figured I make this video as a really quick introduction to whomever is interested in sourdough. Finally a link I can share to my friends who are just getting started. I linked some more videos with details in the description in case you want to dive deeper.

[@jkat3911]

instead of discarding can i add 50 g flour and water and in this way i have two containers with sourdough?

[@rollingstone3017]

Hi, Hendrick. I've been binge watching all your videos, and now I'm thoroughly confused.🙃Is liquid starter better or is stiff starter better? I think I prefer a more yogurt flavor, and I'm trying to make 100% whole wheat sourdough. I very much enjoy your experiments, I'm just at a loss as to where you are now in your learning 😁

[@the_bread_code]

I'd recommend to make a liquid starter to improve lactic flavor. It will persist when you go back to a stiff starter. It will help to be able to bake with every flour you have. Hope it helps 🤗

[@chriscoughlan5221]

After my 1st effort, which was a mini disaster, it used not quite ready starter, so the bread didnt rise, but did taste good though. 2nd attempt, after cutting the dough inton 4, i baked them seperately, and of course the 4th loaf was the best!! i had one big issue, i found my dough to be very wet!!! i used 50% strong wholeweat+50%white strong flour. why was it very wet? too much water? i remember reading somewhere, that if youre using wholemeal flour, you should use more water, is this true?

[@dbpike]

In my home province of Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada, extra bread dough was always left for making “toutons”. Salted pork fat is cut into small pieces and rendered out in a frying pan. These are called scrunchions. The bread dough is then fried in the fat and scrunchions and then served with dark molasses drizzled over them. This video has me wondering how this might be with sourdough… hmmm. 🤔

[@the_bread_code]

Great idea 🤤

[@bradrobbery788]

so if you add the sample as starter does that mean you don't use the flour water starter?

[@maryangichacin9191]

Hi I am new on your channel and it is great to hear about this, but I have a few concerns, 1) if I make a large batch of poolish for storage (fridge) can I just weight the part that I need for the recipe example 200g? 2) If I am going to be using poolish at least one time in a week, how I need to feed it? And finally 3) When I used it, I have to refill it just with same amount of water and flour that I use, or less than that? Do I need to put yeast on when I refill that part? Thank you so much for your help and advice, god bless you!

[@crockmans1386]

Hi M. I dont think you want to make a large patch of poolish. You want a fresh good starter every time new. The starter needs to be fed .... like in Hendricks video on starters ... smiles. And then dont add any yeast. Just add 25gr of whole wheat flour and 25gr of water. Stir well. Thats it. Good luck. Chris.

[@evonnelynlee8677]

Hendrick, for a liquidy starter, what is the ratio of water to flour? Secondly, what do you do with the water that separates - stir it back into the starter or discard and use the starter that has multipled?

[@crockmans1386]

Hi evonne. The normal ratio is 10gram water to 10gram flour. That is medium firm and works fine. The liquidy starter is 12gram water to 8 gram flour. If liquid separates after a few days just stir it back into the mix. If you want to leave it in the fridge cause you will be gone for vacation .... 2 or 3 weeks, just make a stiff mix. 8 water to 12flour. Take care. Chris.

[@sunitatarafder3179]

Please teach me the ratio of ingredients to make starter and the bread. That will be the real knowledge that I could gain from you.

[@DaveOBrien]

Wait, if you use the sample as the next starter, isn't there now salt in your starter?

[@the_bread_code]

Yes. But that's no problem at all. Generally it would be good to add salt to the starter. Because that's the environment you want the fermentation to be in 😅

[@asterixgallier8102]

3:09 oh hey that's me

[@the_bread_code]

Thanks again!

[@amando96]

Would adding some sugar feed the yeast and make it even fluffier?

[@the_bread_code]

There is already a lot of sugar in the flour. The starch is converted over time with enzymes in the flour. No need for additional sugar :-)

[@mattymattffs]

I still buy yeast for baking other things. Less risk of overfermenting and the like. It's too bad this channel doesn't post more

One last question; is there a recipe to make pretzels from discard? I googled it and really only found a couple. I’m not sure I trust these recipes. Thanks!

[@the_bread_code]

Thanks. Took a note 🤗. I'd only mix in a bit of discard. Else the gluten can't be developed. It could be hard to shape the pretzels when you use more than 20% discard.

I’ll start experimenting with mix samples. We’ll see. 👍

[@weaponson3-158]

Use the sample as the starter for next dough and repeat? it’s that simple? How long does that small sample last for? omg

[@fallingjeff]

Quick question to anyone: I created a (Rye) stiff starter, but it is rock hard. I ended up mashing it with a fork to break it up, but you can still feel small pieces. My stiff starter was 10g previous starter, 25g water, 50g of rye. Should the ratio be adjusted? I’m using bobs red mill with 4g of protein.

[@the_bread_code]

Just add a bit more water for the rye. It should work wonders. Like 60% hydration or so.

[@fallingjeff]

I’m an engineer as well, but I had to push my brain aside. I made the viscosity similar by vision and back calculated the moisture content to 75%. I must have unique rye flour. Thanks!

[@fallingjeff]

Oh, I have one last question, but I’ll start a new post so the community can see the question.

[@HumeWinzar]

I use rye flour for my starter too. 10 gm leftover starter, 50 gm flour, 60 gm water.

[@chriscoughlan5221]

after several attempts, i think i´ll call it a day!! firstly whatever i do i cant avoid making a flipping mess!! theres flour and bits of dough everywhere!! secondly no matter what you say a frying pan cant replicate an oven!! thirdly trying to find good quality flour has been an issue, i use strong flour, cuz thats what ive always used in the past when i had an oven. I noticed all purpose flour is 4 times the price of strong flour!!

[@mohamedabougindia2239]

When you say "use dough sample as starter for your next dough", do you mean add it to the original starter you created? or standalone as its own starter? Thanks for the sample idea for determining fermentation that's useful.

I typically use all my starter in a dough. Then this sample becomes my new starter.

[@mohamedabougindia2239]

@@the_bread_code Oh, very interesting! I had no idea. Do you think the sample maintains the balance of wild yeast and bacteria you're looking to keep? I think this little detail is probably overlooked in many resources. I always had the impression sourdough bakers have a starter jar that they take away parts from then add to continuously as an ongoing thing that never depletes.
