    Really good information . Thank you. I have my 2nd bread in the oven on the 2nd rise as I type. This time I added more whole rye and whole wheat flour with the all purpose flour. We like a more sour bread so that is my goal. HAve a great day everyone and happy baking ! ❤

    Thank you for all the suggestions on how to make sour dough bread less sour! I’ve wanted to try making SD bread, but don’t like the sour taste. Questions… at the end of your list you mention adding butter, oil, milk and/or baking soda to the bread and it will be less sour. When do you add the oil and/or baking soda, and can you add all three, milk, soda, and oil? Thank you for your great videos! Gayle in MN.

    • @OurGabledHome
      @OurGabledHome  4 місяці тому

      Caraway seeds contain essential oils that can stimulate the growth of beneficial lactic acid bacteria and yeasts that are responsible for fermenting the dough. Additionally, caraway seeds contain enzymes that can help break down complex carbohydrates in the flour, making it easier for the yeast and bacteria to digest and ferment. 😊 ~ Anja

    Funny, when I started my starter back in the early 80’s in Alaska ( got some from a friend who’s Grandad was a gold rush miner back in the first of the 20th Century) my starter was smelled like beer and was very sour . I loved it, I keep it in the fridge from week to week now and take it out on weekends,but it is very mild.

    I made a starter on Greek yogurt and based on this video, seems like i fermented the bread a long time in the oven (with light on), which explains why it came out sooo sour lol, never put it in the fridge. I used Einkorn & spelt flour until I ran out (used Einkorn to make the dough) & started feeding it King Arthur Bread Flour

    • @Zoey_adventures_xo
      @Zoey_adventures_xo 4 місяці тому

      Actually, now idk what I did wrong. I rewatched this a few times and I think it's just the time I had it fermenting. The starter also was left in the oven with light on the entire time. I got hooch only 1x then just fed it more flour

    🎯 Key Takeaways for quick navigation:
    01:58 🍞 *To make sourdough bread more sour, bake it until the internal temperature reaches about 93°C (200°F), then let it cool before browning.*
    03:23 🌾 *Use a sourdough starter made very sour by feeding it three to five times at one-to-one-to-one ratios and letting it peak at high temperatures (28-30°C or 82-86°F).*
    05:44 🕰️ *Experiment with different resting times before browning (1 hour, 2 hours, 24 hours) after baking to achieve varying levels of sourness.*
    08:10 👃 *Smell and taste test the bread to determine the level of sourness, with longer resting times resulting in more pronounced sour flavors.*
    10:57 🕒 *Adjust baking times based on your oven; approximately 35 minutes at 230°C (450°F) can enhance sourness without overpowering the taste.*

      Any sourdough is healthy. I had made whole wheat and mixed with whole rye and 100% whole wheat grain. They were very dark and not good. Now I mix 50 % unbleached King’s Arthur/ it’s like European flour , no bromides/ and 50% of whole rye. We like it. Of course the best is 100% white unbleached King’s Arthur in our opinion. We only do that for grandchildren on holidays.

    However… the “format” for this video doesn’t work well for me. “#1, this or that. #2, that or the-other,” etc. I see where someone already noted all the “adjustments” for “More Sour”. Just in case someone else wants “Less Sour”, here’s my interpretation:
    1. White or all purpose flour in the dough
    2. Warmer Ferment Temperatures
    3. Shorter ferment times
    4. Younger starter
    5. Feed starter more often
    6. Let Starter be a little watery/runny
    7. Add more Starter to the dough
    8. Use Oat flour or Brown Rice flour in/as your Starter; do NOT use Rye &/or whole grain flours in the Starter
    9. Stir Starter less often
    10. Don’t “Levain”/pre-ferment the dough
    11. Add 1% to 2% Salt
    12. Add milk, fat, oil, butter &/or baking soda to the dough
