    sour dough contains not just yeast but also lacto bacterias and some acetic bacterias as well. lacto bacterias are typical for taste and smelt and also as difference between usual bread (which is made just by yeast) and sour dough bread. that's why i understand that he things and talks about it as bacterias, means lacto bacterias...

    Patrick, I was a baker and pastry chef for almost 40 years involved in every aspect of the working of our industry including teaching, organizing competitions, government laison , managing a small bakery/deli chain and more. When I retired 10 years ago, I had had enough. Didn't even want to bake at home. I ran across this video a couple of weeks ago and then more. Since then I have watched every one of your youtube videos and have made several different loaves of bread, I have a starter on the go and made the apple cinnamon scones yesterday. Thank you for bringing back my love of baking. Keep up the great work.

    Alfie Moon, I enjoyed a regular paycheck AND time at home by teaching and working for other organizations. Plus it allowed me time to have other influences on the industry through organizing student and professional competitions, liaising with government departments on exam qualifications for bakers and trade regulations. I also worked in a couple of trade organizations that mounted national trade shows in alternate years for the entire industry. But most of all, I didn't have the money or marketing skills to set up my own operation. My daughter had a coffee shop for a long while where she baked all of her pastries - I helped her after I retired and helped her create most of the recipes she used - so I got my fingers in THAT pie too - literally.

    @@GB-yt9sn as you are growing the starter from scratch, you will just be discarding half starter and then adding the flour and water. Once you have a viable and active sourdough starter, as you care for it, if you keep it at room temp constantly, you will be always discarding, or using it if you bake bread that often. So when you either portion out to feed it, you can either just discard the unused starter, or you can use it for countless other things. But again, during the initial growing stages of the starter, you are going to just be discarding the X grams of starter. Also, as an aside, once the starter is fully active, you can put it in the fridge and it is very very resilient, as long as you keep it cold. I went into a depression spiral during covid and didn't feed it for like 10 months while it was in my fridge. lost power due to storm, and as I was cleaning my fridge came across it again. it had a nice layer of hootch on top of it, spelled of a sweet vinegary smell. The hootch was a little discolored, but the starter itself was perfectly fine. I discarded the hootch, chopped the cold and somewhat solidified starter in half to be able to feed it. Let it come up to room temp, fed it, and after a few days of feeding it, it was back up and running like nothing happened. made a loaf with it, and oh my it had deepened the flavor. best loaf I had ever made at that point. Do I recommend leaving it in the fridge starving for 10 months? No. Did it drastically improve my starter? Yes it did. Will I do it again? In all honesty, I've forgotten about it for about 3 months now lol.

    When my starter is mature, I smear a thin layer of my starter onto parchment paper and let it dry. I bend the paper and the dried starter comes loose, I crumble it and put it in a zip lock bag and freeze. When I’ve completely ruined my starter, I grab my backup in the freezer and feed it until incorporated. This has saved me many times.

    Directions after you’re finished watching the video: 800g flour 460g water 10g salt 320g starter Mix and knead, don’t add much flour. Once the dough can stretch to translucent without tearing, it’s ready. Let proof for 3 hours. Then punch out the air and form into a ball, divide in half and place in a bowl layered with a tea towl and generously dust it with flour. Shape your dough into a compact ball. Place into bowl upside down and dust with flour, then cover with your tea towel. Let proof for 3 1/2 hours. Gently remove from bowl by dusting with flour and flipping upside down. Score if you want. Put into oven at a minimum of 230°C, bake for 30-35 minutes, or with Pyrex bake for 25 minutes, then remove lid and bake for an additional 25 minutes. (25+25 may result in burning your bread, try 20 minutes with the lid then remove the lid and bake an additional 10 minutes or until deep brown. A great way to tell if a bread is done is by checking the bottom and seeing how dark it is.) By the way, this is for after you’ve watched the video and you want to make the recipe. You should watch Patrick’s video first because he explains everything very clearly and much better than me and watching him make it gives you a visual idea of what to do. My comment is just a guide for remembering the steps / ingredient amounts. Happy travels :)

    just a note that you can use different amounts of starter, at different hydration levels, as long as the total weights stay the same. Totals: flour 960g water 620g (65% hydration) salt 10g for instance, I'm using 200g starter (100g flour, 100g water) so I'll start with 860g flour and 520g water.

    @@Dark_Lantern_ - Hilarious!! You just tried to upbraid someone for having an opinion...by saying people have a right to their opinions! The fact that she cannot understand why people would dislike this video IS her opinion. It's a colloquial turn of phrase used to describe how she feels about the topic, not a statement of her inability to actually comprehend the idea that other people might not like the video. Now, we're not watching a political debate here, or some sort of perverted, toxic or controversial content that would drive people to feel the need to choose a side and up-vote or down-vote the video. We're watching a show about how to make bread by hand...for free! So, unless this is being watched by 1000 disgruntled bakers, it can probably safely be surmised that those down-votes are from trolls, who may indeed have the right to do so, but it does not mean it is appropriate that they should. Thus the term, "Troll." I believe this was, in fact, the point of the previous comment. I realize your entitlement filter may not be able to process the idea of propriety versus rights, but, with any luck, you'll get there some day.

Sourdough Recipe 800G of Flour 460G of Water 10G of Salt (Natural Enhancer) 320G of Starter 1) Mix It All Up then Dump on Table 2) Build the Strength by Kneading (Can be done using Mixer) 3) Can use some oil on hand to check if kneading is done, so it doesn't stick on your hand 4) Let it proof for at least 3 hours 5) This size is good for 2 loafs, split into two, and shape into a shape of a ball by folding in all the edges into the center, and finally rolling it into a ball. 6) Put it into a shaping bowl / pyrex / baking bowl (apply some flour to prevent sticking) 7) Proof for 3 to 4 more hours (counter), or overnight in the fridge. 8) Surface of the dough should be puffy. Put it onto the baking tray. Score the top of the dough, for design purpose, and also prevent the sourdough's crust from stopping the bread from expanding during baking. 9) Preheat Oven to 230 Degrees Celsius and Bake for 30-35 Minutes (with a tray with some water for steaming). If in Pyrex, bake 25 minutes, remove lid, and bake another 25 minutes.

    HALLELUJAH! After creating a good starter and then producing two loaves that failed miserably which resulted in my wanting to tear my hair out, and then wasting precious hours of my life reading extremely wordy sourdough blogs and watching dozens of KZread tutorials (ALL which differed in varying degrees...ugh), resulting in my totally "overthinking" and fearing the whole process, I came across your video. It is, without a doubt, the most helpful, straightforward, uncomplicated sourdough (from start to finish) tutorial I have found. You even gave me permission to use my stand mixer to do the initial kneading....wha'?? I think I can go dry my eyes now, take a deep breath, take my starter out of the fridge and try again. Thank you, thank you from Vancouver, Wa. USA!

    Another comment from me. For a while I stopped making sourdough, I had problems keeping the starter going. You really do need to bake at least once a week in my experience. The other thing, made another starter, according to Patrick's instructions , but using a half and half mix of rye flour and whole wheat flour. I put the jar in my yoghurt incubator and had this at 25 deg C. This worked amazingly, even the very first day, the starter had come to life and bubbled an started climbing up the jar. Since then after the starter's been in the fridge a few days, I add the correct quantities, usually 200 g flour plus 200 pls water, put in the incubator, and wishing 8 hours I have a reliable incredibly active starter to add to my bread. It's revolutionised my sourdough baking, I'll make the dough in the evening, proving overnight in the fridge, then put into bannetons in the morning and prove over the day, it usually takes six hours or a bit more. then bake in the evening. You could change the times to prove in the bannetons overnight and bake in the am if you wanted. One other thing, you can give the dough a short spray (fine misting) with water from a small sprayer to moisten the crust just before popping into the oven as well as boiling water in a container in the oven. I hope this advice helps those having problems.

I proved for 3 hours, then put in the fridge overnight (did not prove out of the fridge for the second 3 hours) but when I baked I got a flat hard loaf, I'm thinking I should have done the second proof out of the fridge, and then put the dough in the fridge overnight so it was ready to go in the morning?

My starter is active, I use bread flour, not really getting a good rise on the first 3-hour proof but I don't want to over prove it so I let the first rise go 3.5 hours max, then divide into two baskets, the dough feels good after the second 3-hour rise, goes into the oven but it does not get any oven spring. Can't figure out what the heck I'm doing wrong. I'm in CA so I am wondering if I need to add more liquid to hydrate the flour?

Bread bakes and tastes fine without salt. I also don't measure anything, I just make it look and feel right. And I don't have "discard", that a particular flour company promotes heavily, after all they are selling flour. The longest my starter went un-fed was over 3 months in the refrigerator. Someone below tells how to dry and freeze starter. I do this. For Americans the 230 C is 450 F.

    Yes, but don't try this recipe unless baking a pure white loaf. The trickier moves become necessary when you start using wholemeal or even spelt. He's also using very low hydration, - just over 50% - which you can with pure white. With the wholemeal/white/spelt combo I use, 76% water to flour. Much harder to handle and needs very careful working - you can't knead it without killing it.

    I started my starter 9 days ago and last night I started to make the bread. This morning I got up and preheated my oven and made my first loaf. I have dreamed of making this for years and this is the first time I felt like giving it a try. Thank you for explaining everything so well and making it look like I could do this! The needing took forever and the dough was very sticky but I used the window pane test and followed the instructions. It worked great!

Some of my bread was fine, others had air holes but a little dense. When I proofed in the basket this morning there were air bubbles on the top of the dough!

Over the last 2 weeks after watching you Patrick it inspired me to start home baking I have made cream cheese, Ricotta cheese Honey oat bread, buttermilk, chocolate choux buns and yoghurt there are still more items I want to have a go at making! l feel I now have my life back and enjoying my baking again I can't thank Patrick enough for this!

    Nice video, very well explained. I am an professional baker and i bake all my sourdough breads with a starter (15 years old) made from apple-water. Raisin-water works also very good. Slice an apple and put together with 1 liter of water in an open jar en place it somewhere in the kitchen or outside. The apple's color goes brown, but that's okay. After 1 week, discard the apple en use this water to make your sourdough starter. Cast iron Dutch Ovens are great baking vessels by the way. Greetings from The Netherlands

    Hello Patricia When the apple water is ready, you can use this water to make your sourdough starter as explained in the video above. After that (the 1 week process) you can just use tap water to feed it and keep it alive. This method just gives your starter a real boost, because of the lactic acid bacteria that are on the apple's skin.

    Hello Denise, Just soak some dry raisins in hot water for about 15 minutes or so and drain over a bowl to catch the water. Use this water to make your sourdough-starter as explained in the video above. It is all about the lactic acid bacteria. Real honey works also very well to give your starter or polish/biga a real boost. Just keep experimenting.That is the fun of it. Greetings and good luck.

    Ok so, like many of you at the moment, I'm quarantining!! I'm in China, been quarantining pretty much since January :-/ So I finally bit the bullet and decided to give sourdough a go (difficult to get decent bread here at the best of times!!) I searched youtube for recipes and ideas on how to start and stumbled across this video. I went to the supermarket and got All Purpose flour (that was all I could find), and got started... I followed the instructions, took me a little over a week to get my starter going, and it was lovely and fluffy and bubbly. I made the dough and it was very sticky, I had to add some flour to my hands to get the dough off, so it was incorporated into the mixture too. I let it prove for about 4 hours then shaped it again and put it in my pyrex dish in the fridge overnight. It looked very flat and sad this morning, and so I put it in the oven with very low expectations. 30 mins later I checked to take the bowl part off the Pyrex dish, and the bread had risen to nearly the top of the dish!!!!!! I cooked it for another 30 mins (I have a very crappy and old toaster oven type thing so always need the temp higher and the time longer). I removed from the oven THE MOST BEAUTIFUL LOAF OF SOURDOUGH BREAD I HAVE EVER SEEN IN MY LIFE!!!!!!!!! It was even literally "singing" to me (it was making all sorts of weird crackling and popping sounds). I cut it open, it had a beautiful crisp shell and beautiful bubbly looking loaf on the inside. I then proceeded to eat half the loaf. It was my first attempt at making bread (not just sourdough) from scratch and was a total success! THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!! I'm afraid to try again now though :)
