    When you're cutting back on the starter, can you give some away? Or do you just have to toss it? LOVE this video. Just getting into sourdough baking.

      Of course you can give it away !!! It’s a fun and welcomed gift, just add a card with instructions and maybe a recipe ! You can also freeze some to get a batch going later or smear some out on parchment paper and dry it. Crumble it up and put in jars, keeps for years just make sure it’s really dry and is kept dry !

    my Q: You said that you get an over whelming amount of sourdough? At what point does that happen? I keep on throwing and adding small amounts of starter, flour and water...???at what point do I accumulate starter??? some of my starters are not even doing the floating method after feeding for 3 weeks and my starter is in an environment of 70 degrees. Will checkout some of your videos! Thank You!!!!

    I'm wanting to start using a starter but I use a bread machine to make a week worth of bread dough in a day. My recipes call for active dry yeast. How would you recommend (if you would at all recommend it) substituting the starter for the dry yeast?

  • @kelleyleblanc5025
    @kelleyleblanc5025 Рік тому

    I’m following your starter protocol and just about finished week 4. My starter has lots of small bubbles and passes the float test but it barely rises. Any ideas? I made sourdough bagels last week and it did rise the dough but they were on the denser side.

    As always Carolyn so helpful however, I do have a hard time seeing you with your head in your hands. I know you have had lots of practice at the things you do, and at one point you were probably where most of us are. Still just hard to envision you with your head in your hands. I would like to know though where you got your cheese press? Did your husband make it? And could you send me a link to your cheese making video where that press is used. I tried to search for the cheese making video but I couldn’t find one. thank you very much Michele

    My grandmother made sourdough bread every week for as far back as I can remember. It was wonderful and we always looked forward to eating it. I've tried to make starters several times over the years and mine always turn pink right away. I figured pink wasn't a good color so I've never got to the bread making part of it.

    • @rnupnorthbrrrsm6123
      @rnupnorthbrrrsm6123 3 роки тому +1

      Ahhhh don’t give up !
      You will love it once you get one going :)
      I don’t think pink is a good sign but if it gets that dark brown liquid on top it just means it needs to be fed, just stir it in and feed it.
      Get a really good whole grain, I bleached, organic flour to start it, once it’s established you can add any flour. I’m sure she has a video with instructions to follow or “Farmhouse on Boone” or “Mary’s Nest” have good instructions too !!!
      Best of luck !

    • @dm607
      @dm607 3 роки тому

      I've never used the toss method when making a starter. Just keep it all in the jar in the fridge, take out day before needed, give it a feed or two, let the magic happen (out of the fridge) and it's good to go.

  • @marywilliams6871

    I keep a lot of starter on hand cause I make pancakes often and that requires 2 cups. I also make crackers and biscuits and cinnamon rolls often. I have to keep several cups on hand always.

Does the website have a problem with Firefox, perhaps? Hopefully I'll remember to try again tomorrow after the computer has been shut down for the night.. Joy M Edit: YES it is the FireFox. I haven't used Internet Explorer for years and am hoping the whole class doesn't have to be in that venue. If anyone else doesn't remember how to use IE, this is what I did.... open the sign-up page in my normal browser then copy and paste the url to IE.

      Do you have a decent fitting lid? Is it too wet? Do you have a fridge thermometer? I am a novice but these are the things I would check. Have you typed that phrase into an internet search? Best of luck.

    • @HomesteadingFamily
      @HomesteadingFamily  3 роки тому

      My guess is you are using a whole wheat starter... it is very normal for it to 'separate' and have the liquid on top go blackish... it doesn't mean there is anything wrong with your starter! Just pour off the liquid and give it a few good feedings!
