Shaye, I just want to tell you that I have been making sourdough bread for three years now. I switched to a dry starter like you recommended in this video and made a loaf of sourdough following your recipe. It was the most amazing loaf of sourdough bread I have ever made and it was mammoth in size! I am convinced that the dry starter was somehow stronger. Thank you for sharing your talents with all of us. We are truly blessed! God be with you, Kathy

Thank you so much for taking the time to explain all about sourdough. Sourdough is one of my goals to learn this winter and you're right: it can be as simple or as complicated as you make it! I have never heard of a dry starter either and I will definitely be attempting to make one soon. I was also intrigued to see you were using an old canning lid to scrape your bowl; I had never thought of that! Just goes to show you don't always need the fancy things, though they are nice!

You don't have to throw away extra starter. I saw on PRO HOME COOK youtube chanel he makes sourdough pancakes just out of plane starter. You can add herbs, different salts, bits of bacon and just fry it. Sometimes I add some water and flour and leave on the counter over night and fry it in the morning for kids breakfast. My picky oldest loves them! I hope it was helpful 🙂

I was super interested in the dry starter but keeping a wet starter doesn’t have to be complicated nor wasteful. I have had a wet starter for over 5 years now, keep it in the fridge and only feed it 12ish hours before making bread (twice a week). Plus I keep a jar of sourdough discard in the fridge and then we make pancakes with it every weekend (and occasionally pizzas too). Zero waste.

DO NOT USE your brand new shiny dutch oven. Use an old crusty one from the thrift store or a non-enameled one (just a seasoned cast iron). The enameled dutch ovens are not really meant to be preheated empty on really high heat and the enamel on mine cracked. With the warantee, I was able to get it replaced. Thank you Shaye - I have made many loaves since with a plain cast iron dutch oven. It is now my bread baking tool and also great for cooking on campfires :)

Also, I use a “wet starter” to make it a little easier to use it in most sourdough recipes, but I only keep about 1/2 on hand and I keep it in the fridge so I really only have to feed it once a week or sometimes every 2 weeks if I’m not making as much bread. When I want to use it in a recipe that calls for more than I have, I just give it a bigger feed and I’m ready to go!

Hi, unfortunately, I am just seeing this video and missed the sourdough class for 2024. I am interested in another class in 2025 when available. Thank you for all this valuable information about “dry starter” as this resonates with me. I could never wrap my head around waste or discard of starter as I dont think thats how our ancestors would have lived. Not to mention the cost of wheat berries, einkorn flour or wheat berries. Also my life, and I am sure most lifestyles don’t lend itself to do this! I grind my wheat berries for my bread recipe and have never ventured to sourdough starter! I did order einkorn wheat berries several years ago but I delayed in using the berries before my quest for successful bread making! One day I discovered weavils and trashed them all. So I need to start again! However, the good news? I have mastered the skill of bread making and very proud of the outcome!! Next venture? Sourdough starter!! Thank you for your encouragement and for bringing us in to your home!! OK!!! One last thing, what color is your nail polish?! LOVE IT

I am absolutely going to try a dry starter. I am so glad you answered one of huge frustrations over the past year. We lost our home in hurricane Laura in 2020. In my old home my sourdough and other ferments were beautiful and since being in this new home they are pitiful. I blamed it on having an electric stove, which I still believe is part of it, then I thought it is probably the fermeldahide in the new house, which is also part of the problem, I believe. I will keep fermenting to fill my new kitchen with wild yeasts!

I use a wet starter as well and I make it easier by only keeping 1/2 cup or so at a time so I only have to feed it a small amount of flour to keep it happy and I’m never forced to discard bc I have so little to start with. I usually only feed it 20g water and 20g flour and keep it in the fridge when I’m not using it in a tiny little container. It works much the same as the dry started as far as ease of use. But I think either one is great!

I love this video Shaye. Here goes it (😅) (bad grammar) for me. My sourdough starter has been sat in the fridge for about a week and today's the day I am going to start making sourdough. I have watched your videos on sourdough, bought all the ingredients, tried out my scale to make sure it's reliable. Got up extra early here in the UK. I feel a lot more prepared to do this now I've done my homework. I have a feeling it will take me a lot longer than the average person to make the bread and get good at it. I've always been slow at nearly every I do because I tend to be overly analytical. I check and check and check again to make sure the details are correct. So anyway, thank you for taking the time to make videos like this for us. Have a blessed day you Elliotts. 😊

Wonderful video! I like having both options of dry or wet starter. I typically use a wet starter in a mason and keep it in the refrigerator. If I am not baking bread, I may feed the starter once a week or every two weeks. I store the extra in a container for pancakes, etc. Today I added that extra starter to my regular artisan bread that uses a 1/4 tsp yeast. So I know my bread will rise and bake in same day. Its all good :-) My issue is finding space to raise the dough in the refrigertor. I may try a cooler with ice packs.

I only feed my sourdough starter when I get to the bottom of the jar. I haven’t changed the jar for about five years. It just is eager to make bread. It sits in my cold fridge with a piece of cling film with jokes and the lid (an old pickle jar!). I had mine go into sleep mode a few years ago… I knew it wasn’t dead, because it would bubble a tiny bit. I watched Bake with Jack and he suggested that we over feed and pamper the starter. It just “dieth not”. The only way you can kill it is to chlorinate it!

I watched the video instead of reading the recipe and was so confused why you didnt add salt (i see now you added some but didnt say and for some reason i registered it as just sprinkling a tad more flour lol) but trusted it and got the nastiest tasting bread ever! LMAO it looked and smelled great but man i wish i read the recipe. Gotta try again in a couple days!

Great to hear about your dry starter method! FYI, one cup of water is over 230 mL and weighs over 230 g. So 130 g of water is close to 1/2 cup. :)
