Ingredients

500 g strong wheat flour
500 ml warm water

Instructions

To bake sourdough bread one has to prepare the starter. A starter is nothing else then a yeast culture made solely from flour and water. This takes 4-5 days. The first day you mix 100g flour with 100ml warm water. Cover it and keep it warm.

Now for 4-5 days do this: after 24 hours you add 100g flour and 100 ml warm water. Mix this well and keep warm again. It will bubble and depending on the flour it might smell of yeast or even beer. The dough should have a consistency of a cake dough.

After 4-5 days keep 200g of the dough in a jar in the fridge, cover it or close the jar properly but punch a hole into the lid. This will be the starter, you will later use to bake bread.

Note:It is important to remember that your starter is a colony of life-form.

Never use it all up, always keep some. Feed the dough every week (if not being used) with a Tablespoon of flour and warm water.

Several hours before you make your dough, you need to make a sponge. That is a kind of “batter”.

Depending on the recipe you use the starter to which you add the specific amount of flour and water needed in the bread. Just read my sourdough recipe to go on and it will soon be clear to you, how to go on.
