I just started making my starter. I guess I’m confused…. When I’m ready to make my dough am I using all the starter? Or do I just use some and the remaining starter is what I use for the next time?

I have wanted to start a sourdough journey but want to know all I need to know first. This is exactly what I’ve been looking for! Can’t wait to try it.

Amazing video. Thank you

would the German buttercream be a good filling for a traditional white wedding cake? We are making an egg white based cake with vanilla flavors as we have an almond allergy.

Bettie, this was tremendous! As an autistic ADHD’er who is trying desperately to learn to use my sourdough starter, I have a stack of books and have watched countless videos trying to gain the courage to leap from feeding starter to actually baking with it. Providing the rationale behind the stages of growth as well as so many other details really helped my mind piece together and what was missing. Now if I can find a video that covers the step of how to get the bread dough started from the starter, I will be ready!

I grew up with my mom's three-piece tulips pattern mixing bowls, like the set in the upper right. Along the way, the small and medium were broken, but I used the large in my kitchen, until it cracked, about 20 years ago. I'm not even sure how I broke it now, but both mom and I go a lot of use out of it.

If only I had found your excellent video 4 months ago. Thank you for an easy no fuss explanations 😊 Tomorrow I will finally bake my first loaf of sourdough bread ❤

Thank you so much

New to sourdough and your channel. Best videos by far. I love your IKEA funnel shaped glass jars with the lids. It appears that IKEA is no longer carrying this style. Have you found them anywhere else? These look perfect for starters. Thanks.

Hi Betty. Thank you for sharing. I made this bread yesterday and OH My Lord. My family loved it. Thank you. I have one question. Do you think adding a bit of buttermilk would help even more with the taste and texture? Thank you. 🙏🏻

my neighbor gave me a sourdough starter and I am excited to start this journey but I don't have a kitchen scale. is it absolutely necessary or can I use a measuring cup instead?

Hello, I am on Day 20 and I have been feeding my sourdough starter once a day with Bob's Red Mill Whole Wheat Flour and Bottled Water (between 85F-90F) at a 1:3:3 ratio (25/75/75) from Day 4. I keep it in my Brod & Taylor Proofer at 75F. My starter has been consistently doubling in 7-8 hours for, at least a week. However, it is not doubling in the 4-6 hours. Is there anything else I could be doing to get my starter to double in volume quicker? Or should I stay the course and just give it time?

bruh why is this so underrated😭😭😭

Love, love your video instructions. These are just what I needed to learn the basics and get a very promising (Day 3 now) starter going. It's so helpful being able to watch your videos and see what to do and what the results should look like for comparison. I named mine, Doughprah. I noticed a "false rise" last night before bedtime from the noon-ish feeding. It has calmed down again this morning, but I am not panicky thanks to the clear information you've already provided. Also, I haven't been surprised by the smell so far, because of the descriptions you gave in your videos and I see what I now know to be "hooch" forming on top that I will pour off before I feed it later today. I've watched (and enjoyed) your Day 3 video in preparation of the next feeding. Thank you so much for this great sourdough starter video series. So far, so good!

Thanks for the time you put into this video, I really appreciate it. Thanks for sharing!

' YES ' THERES MORE THAN ' BLUEBERRIES ' OUT TJERE

Love this video , I can understand the basic of baking ❤❤

I used reeves puffs minis with butterscotch chips, peanut butter, and margarine. I used the microwave. Turned out great

I am brand new to sourdough bread making and I have to say all things about the starter were really confusing to me and almost seemed overwhelming and had me second guessing if I really wanted to start this. But you made it so simple to understand. I think I can say now "I get it!!" Thank you so much!

Perfection!

I make these with sauerkraut and we call them Pishkies

Great videos. I like how she gets right to the point instead of chatting up. Great instructions. Thank you!

Thank you so much . Finally I know how do those eggs .

I'm going to have to try this by hand - the dough hook on my dough mixer just isn't enough and I've never seen the "press in / spring back" test... I have a feeling if I had done that with my machine kneaded bread, it would simply retain the dimple.

Using the scales is much less work.

Knowledge. Interesting. Tanks.

Hello I would like to k ow if you have this recipe but using sourdough instead and is the cooking time and temperature the same? Thank you 😊.

God damn I will have to make them all now to try!!!

Question: I bought a starter online from a reputable shop. The instructions that came with it said take the small amount in the cup and liquify it in 1/4 cup warm water. Then put it in the mixing bowl and to add 1 cup warm water and 2 cups Thier brand flower. Then to leave it for 8-24 hours. Is it normal not to see it do anything? They don't have any notes on what is or is not normal in Thier little booklet, it's all recipes that I won't be ready for for a while. Now the house is 76° so I am assuming that may be why after 8 hours there's only about 6 bubbles visible on the side of the jar. But I don't know for sure and my mother won't let me turn my thermostat down as she's hot (she moved in needing care and has taken over my home playing the control game she use to when I was a child). In any event I really want to do this right and if I messed up I have a second order coming in tomorrow as my order got split so I do have 2 more starters ( was going to make 3 types or 3 started with different flour varieties in each to see if I have a variant I like the best)

has anyone ever used a 3 qt. dutch oven? i found one at a yard sale over the weekend and just started my first sourdough starter. i think im going to try it.

❤❤❤❤❤

Most clear and supporting cook video ever. Described from Australia

She should Be proud!! She Has all Ages in here cooking these Biscuits 🩵🩵🔥

Mine turned out great!!! Been trying different ways. Staying with this one❤ And love that I can just drop them!!

I love it when it's straight to the point! Thanks 😊

I just put in my loaves now... and I didn't grease the pans... I hope it will be ok 😮

Omg, you re so pretty ❤ you re the most elegant and knowledgeable kitchen fairy 🥰

Love your videos !

First of all thanks for your videos. Day 8,9,10 raised within 24 hours but not doubled.

Good recipe. The key is the bread. I like the addition of spices & bell peppers (jalapeños are ok too). I usually use caraway seed, green cabbage, onion, ground beef, garlic, dash of chili powder, salt & pepper. I live about an hour fm Hutch. They are a tradition in our region.

these videos mean a lot to me because my passion is baking and cooking also what is the difference if you were to compare batter with dough?🤔

German butter cream is my fav😋

Thank you mam..

So goooood. Thankyou!

Do you use a gas or electric oven?

Very informative video. Thank you so much. God bless you ❤❤

I don’t want to use my starter but I want to maintain it. After I feed my starter when do I store it back in the fridge.

I ordered a banneton basket from Amazon, and it’s rubber ! It came with the liner and lame. I guess I didn’t pay attention to the material it was made from. Is this ok to use? What is the banneton made of, wicker?

Loved your video. Learned so much!
