Finally a chanel that explains it easy to understand, those other hipster channels are a nightmare. Thank you
blanket man thank you. Hopefully i make this easy to understand!
Please stop playing with your hair
It's literally the same advice. 1 to 1 ratio of flour to water with some different tips. Not that hard to follow....
Hi Everyone! Well the video for how to maintain a sourdough starter is finally done! Sorry this took so long to get to you. I do all the filming, editing, etc. myself so sometimes it can be a little challenging. Especially with all this rain we've had in my area. I hope you enjoy! Happy baking!!
Nice work!
You do an amazing job of creating enjoyable, factual videos as well as delicious, reliable recipes. Long time follower!
Should I freeze the dried starter? Like you freeze active dry yeast for long term?
Amy - I’m pretty sure that I have commented before, but I have followed you and your recipes for years. Many are staples for our family: Tomato soup, sourdough bread, tortillas and English muffins. Thank you for your easy to understand and follow videos.
Was gifted a starter lastnight & given your site as reference:) Thank you!!!
Hi everyone! I'm very sorry I haven't been able to answer comments but I will be working on them this weekend to get caught up. I get hundreds of inappropriate comments and it makes it really hard to get to the people that really need help! Again, I will try to get to everyone at some point this weekend.
Amy Duska thank you Amy. I subscribed. I also looked at your comment section and saw what you meant by inappropriate. My twin daughters have a you tube channel with @ 2mm subscribers. I think they have a way to block inappropriate comments. I can ask them how if you want.
Amy Duska I just asked my daughter and she said you can block users or specific words.
Thank you I'll look into that asap!
Amy Duska if you need help I’ll ask Ciera for more details. UA-cam tc2 ... that’s their channel.
Amy Duska hi Amy. It seems your comment section has been cleaned up a lot. If you need specific advice from Ciera let me know and I can hook you two up directly. Btw your video was very helpful!
I have tried around twenty different methods of baking sourdough and your recipe is the only one that works..thanks
I'm new to the whole sourdough thing and you made it pretty easy to learn some of the basics, plus that idea for dehydrating some of the discard as a backup... Those are some great tips!
So glad I found you . Really detailed enough and very helpful. Thanks! Happy Baking!
Your sourdough series is so well done! I stopped making sourdough bread for a year now and feel this time around I can stick with it because of your videos. Thank you!🍞
Just re-started from dried because I stopped making it for about a year. It totally worked! The starter was back in 2 days instead of the 7 days from scratch! Totally worth having some dried, cool! Thanks for the tip!
How did you do it?
Most useful starter video ever. Followup: tried it, FANTASTIC results.
Oh yah 😉
I didnt know that you can dry the starter on a sheet and store it. Thanks for the very informative video.
Happy to help!
By far the most straight-forward guide!!! Thank you so much :)
Really great, I now understand the process completely. Thank you Amy x
Great clear and simple instructions. Thank you.!
Hello Amy, I’m from Egypt and this explanation the best way to starter
Thanks 🙏🏻
Your directions were so clear and simple. I viewed a number of videos and this one is by far the best. Thank you. I was looking for directions as to how to feed the starter, what to do with left over starter.
Thanks for your clear instructions Amy. I enjoyed the lesson.
Thank you Amy. Really clear instructions to follow. Thanks also for the drying method. That will be useful for when i go away on extended holidays. Look forward to more of your videos.
This is the absolute best video explaining and showing the step by step process. Thanks a bunch.
You're welcome Donna :)
you are so good at explaining things thank you so much
Very helpful! Thank you!
I freeze mine into an ice cube tray and put the frozen sourdough started in a jar. I have done this for years and if I don’t want to make bread for a while, I can always just take out one cube and start a new batch of starter from that. I have kept it frozen for over 1 year at times and it works great.
Claus Wawrzinek that is a great tip!! Thanks for sharing. I’m going to try that! 😊
Thanks Amy! I was having trouble with my starter but your feeding technique is great!
Glad it was helpful!
Great idea with drying out the yeast,I never knew that,thanks.
Great video. New subby. I was looking for a beginner sourdough bread recipe video. LOL then read the comments and saw that you're working on one. I'm so excited. I really want to get into making my own breads. Love your scoring bread videos also. Thank you for sharing!😄💖
Thank you for information you explain very clear
Thanks, that explained the process.
Amy, Big Big Thanks, I really enjoyed the visit to your kitchen.
You are so welcome!
wow and seen so many videos and i am so happy I came across yours. great and clear instructions, user-friendly. your videos are so approachable. i very much appreciate this.
Thx so much for this video!
Great video, thank you!
Love the emergency backup!!! Thank you!
You're welcome!
Amy Duska ty for a wonderful video and helping me to understand a less confusing way of maintaining my sourdough starter , God bless :)
thanks alot I will try and learn in the way tanks alot!
Thanks you sweetheart. This was very useful and easy to follow! ❤
Excellent, thank you.
Great idea to store some in case things go wrong. Thanks for the tip!
thegravityrebel you’re welcome 😉
Thanks for this Amy! I tried the sourdough recipe out of a popular, mass market cookbook and it was a disaster as far as sourdough is concerned, though to resulting bread did make good French toast and sandwiches. I decided to try again and I found more information about sourdough than I could imagine existed with a single web search.
I have discovered that sourdough is not really all that complicated and your simple, easy to understand videos really do reflect that. I restarted my starter last weekend and my dough is fermenting on the counter as I type. I will be getting it ready for the oven after we finish a breakfast of sourdough waffles that I made with the remaining starter.
You are so welcome! Glad I can help :)
Thank you so much! This is awesome!
JLaw483 you’re so welcome!
Wow! You can dry it and rehydrate it? Why has no one ever mentioned that before? Definitely subscribing. Your clips are so thorough!
Well done!
Thank you Amy!
I like your tutorial video. AWESOME
Loved the video on making your sourdough starter - mine is now sitting on the kitchen top! The maintaining is more complicated for me as I found it helpful to just use cups. I shall just try my own way with flour and water and keep my fingers crossed!
Just found your channel after having some difficulty with my brand new starter. Thank you for the tips on maintenance and the extra tip of drying! Your channel looks awesome, I’ve just subscribed!!
Alexandria Robinson thank you! 😊
THANK YOU. This is very very helpful. Will do. Aria
Thank you so much for this video. It’s the first I saw that explained very easily. How do you rehydrate the back up starter.
Just followed your recipe and subscribed, thank you and will look at some other videos of yours.
Great video … this is one of the best .👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
Thank you for sharing the tips how to save my sourdough starter.
This video was great! Awesome information👍thank you for sharing
Alan Hale thank you! 😊
Thanks for your video
One of the best starter explanations I have seen. I never would have thought to mix unbleached and whole wheat 50/50. Especially for starter. Whenever recipe calls for 100 whole, I swap out at least 1 cup bread or unbleached. Love the kitchen, actually was the click bait that got me.
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks for the help with this, it will definitely help us get started.
Glad it was helpful!
@@littlespoonfarm There will always be people that out to get noticed by their rude comments, but please remember that as long as you are helping the ones who need and are open to it, then it will be a value that you can be proud of. "Don't let perfect be the enemy of the good" as words I live by. Cheers Gregg
Perfect explanation
AWESOME! Thanks
Hello Amy, Thank you very much for this amazing video. I was watching videos overnight. I will bake bread tonight :) I made a lot last year. I think this video is so specific and well narrated. LOVE IT! Thank you for sharing.
Norma Isiordia Thank you so much!! Im working on my sourdough bread video now. Hope to have it up soon! 😊
Keep me posted :) @@littlespoonfarm
Very interesting about how you dried that extra starter, first time I seen anything like that, thanks for that idea.
Helpful recipe!
Very informative video. Great job. Perfect today’s stay home norm.
Thank you!
Yeah, but we know that is NOT the norm, right?
Very cool! Nice to see you more in the video with more expression.
Thanks!
Great video! Thanks!!
Todd Acton thank you!
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏very informative ! Direct to the point ! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐👍🏼
Thanks for the video very informative, I too would love to know how to re hydrate the dried starter..Thankyou..
Awesome video. Thanks
Vancouver Island you’re welcome 😊

Subscribed !
✌💋👍
Thank you once again!
My pleasure!
Thanks for this. Subscribed!
Thanks for the sub!
Finally we know how to do it... thanks
I like the way you make it simple. I will feed my "pet" very carefully now. ^^ Oh and btw, thanks for the heads up on the scale, I was looking for a replacement, the one I have is not very accurate. Thank you so much, have a nice day. 😋♥︎
Thanks ! We make sourdough pancakes from our discard and freeze them. Made cheesy muffins also. Making first loaf of bread tomorrow and trying sandwich biscuits.
I'm just making a starter and wife has been making me those pancakes we made cheesy savoury ones they a lush
That is awesome!
if by chance you need to use the "back up", what would be the steps used to re-hydrate it? Thanks so much for your videos! They are easy to follow and I look forward to watching the easy sour dough bread recipe video! :) Thanks again !
I discovered a good way to make my active starter really grow and become bubbly after a feeding. What I did is not feed my active starter for two days (48 hours), and then when I did feed it I gave it some good sprouted rye flour. The starter then tripled in height! Starving the starter for a couple of days made it real hungry and when I fed it it really grew. It never happened like that when I fed it every 24 hours. My starter is about 2 months old and I have never refrigerated it , yet. I keep it fed daily with a King Arthur AP flour and when I am ready to make a bread I starve it a couple of days and then give it a sprouted rye feeding in the morning and when it triples in height I make a flour and then refrigerate it after making the dough and folding it a few times over a few hours. The bread is high-hydration and is 30% rye and 70% bread flour.
Nice informative video, I had no idea it survives when you dry it. Good to know.
Glad it was helpful!
@@littlespoonfarm Actually hasn't been yet, but hopefully it will, once I finally manage to create a proper starter, been failing miserably so far. I used to have a nice starter before, but I lost that one. If I knew this back then, then my life would've been so much easier.
Really want to get it going, been tryharding it for a week now. 😫
Great Video, keep em coming
Thank you!
@@littlespoonfarm Are you single?
Thank you 🙏
Thank you Amy, great video, how long will the dry starterdough last and how do you rejuvenate it?
Loved the video Amy. Simple and to the point and I like the info on drying some started for a just in case situation. My starter is new, and I got it from a great place. Apparently it's around 100 years old? And it was brought here to the US from the middle east through the drying method
LegendOFame 2.0 wow! 100 years old?? That’s amazing 😊
@@littlespoonfarm yeah. I am new to using starter and I was about to order some online. But I happened to find a little local bakery that sold me some. And they had brought it over to the States using the drying method. But I didn't understand or ask about that. Then I found your video. So I took some of the original starter I got from them and dried it, per your suggestion👍. I have used the starter once and it does a great job. I would like to experiment with making my own at some point. But, I am glad I began with a mature starter, I feel a little overwhelmed as it is, trying to learn the art of sourdough bread making 😊
Thank you
Dias Recipes you’re welcome 😊
Nice video, I'm from Argentina, 18yo. I'm new in the sourdough world hahaha
OK...you can turn the scale around. I am not complaining. I did enjoy the view.
great video thanks....any recommendations for a sourdough bread recipe for my first attempt ...thanks
I like your starter methods. Tell us in another video how to use the your dry starter, get it ready to use, feed, length of time to be ready. I purchased dry starter from France, San Francisco wish to get active. Thank you
Nice! 👍
I totally understand you. Loved this video thank you. I need more info. So you did ask this and you want to bake a bread hole do I use it. Measurements and all. Do I reserve some to continue the starter. Please show me
Yes awesome awesome awesome! Now I get what I’m supposed to do with the starting and feeding it! Cld not find a video on it.
My mum used to leave some in the bowl / pail / bucket in which she prepared the dough , long enough before n until it turned ineffective. The rye bread is a peculiarity in our country. It is known to be very healthy . Keeping up these traditions is worth the trouble.💕
Found it very helpful, I have not started making my own because have not found information clear anywhere else untill now, thank you. Hello how do I rehydrate to achieve 25g starter with liquid though ?
Amy Duska, Thank you for sharing. How often do I need to feed it when storing the starter in the fridge. I bake ones every other week. Your video is great and it is very informative and simple to follow. Also,you are very pretty. Thank you
Thank u! 😊
You're welcome 😊
Hi Amy. Your videos are great! Could you tell me how much water
you use to rehydrate the dried starter? Also, after rehydration should I feed the same as usual?
Thank you.
Thank you so much for the info, how long do you let the starter fry out? And do you put it in the fridge or oven or just counter? How do you re hidrate the starter. Thank you!
Amy, thanks for sharing your enthusiasm and skills. I really appreciate what you are doing because as a man learning how to make sourdough and bread your simple straightforward approach really suits my own learning curve. I find some of the other vids by men a bit too much and too 'in your face' and they don't give me the confidence that your vids do. Thanks again. And as far as the inappropriate comments by moronic idiots go, well I am sure that you don't let that go to heart. Please do not ever let them get to you. Just in case any of them are watching right now; "I bet your mother is really ever so proud of the way her son turned out. As a man, I think you are pathetic beyond belief."
Hi there! Thank you so much for your kind words! I appreciate it very much! :)
@@littlespoonfarm You are truly welcome.
You said it far more eloquently than I could, sir. I totally agree. Amy's directions are clear, logical and completely understandable. Even a 69 year old combat veteran, just starting to bake bread, can follow the instructions and make good sourdough bread and English Muffins on the first attempt. Good on you!
Love your Videos! Very Informative! Amy, once you take out some Starter to bake with, how much Flour and Water do you put back into the Mother Starter? And is it the Same Amount Each Time? Thanks!!
Hi.... I am in the third day of making my starter, your recipe.
Enjoyed your video and very well done, so when will you make a video on making the Bread?
The dried starter is an interesting option. How would you go about rehydrating it? Roughly matching the weight to the water 1:1? Would you need to do a few back to back feeds to get the starter going again? Great maintenance tips thanks.
Liked your videos and explanations. Can’t find your video of making sourdough bread.
Thanks for the video. I'm just getting into sourdough and plan to do the weekly feedings. How soon can I use it for making bread after removing it from the fridge? Does it need to be fed daily outside of the fridge for a few days before using it?
as soon as it starts doubling . peak time is when the mixture crowns. Feed when ever it collapses.
Thank you for a nice video! Subscribed. I liked the tip of drying some starter, will try this. A question though, what type of water do you use? Tapwater? Boiled or just as is? Cold, roomtemp?
Jonas Lindberg I use room temperature tap water. I let the water sit for an hour to let the chlorine dissipate 😊
