Sourdough Starter Journey: Day 1 & Day 2

Welcome to the start of our sourdough starter journey! In this video, we guide you through the initial two days of crafting your very own sourdough starter from scratch.

For Day 1, you'll need:

A clean glass jar
25 grams of wholemeal organic flour
25 ml of water (spring water or tap water that has been left at room temperature for 24 hours)
Simply mix the wholemeal flour and water in the glass jar, ensuring the mixture is well combined. Remember not to tighten the lid on the jar, allowing for airflow to kickstart the fermentation process. This simple act sets the stage for the complex and delightful flavors to come in your sourdough bread.

Day 2 is a day of patience and observation. Resist the urge to interfere with your mixture. Instead, let it rest undisturbed. This downtime allows the natural yeasts in the flour to activate and begin fermenting, a crucial step in developing the unique characteristics of your sourdough culture.

Join us as we witness the subtle transformations taking place within our jar and anticipate the exciting developments ahead. Stay tuned for our next video, where we'll delve into Day 3 and beyond, continuing our sourdough journey together.
