Sourdough Starter With Vinegar Recipes

SOURDOUGH STARTER

Steps:

• 1. Combine the flour, salt, sugar and yeast in a glass or stone bowl or crock. Mix together well by stirring.
• 2. Add the vinegar to the water. Add water mixture while stirring and beating to make a smooth batter. Cover with cheese cloth, put in a warm place to allow the batter to get sour for around 12 hours, you will know when it is sour when there is a strong yeast smell. At this point, pour the batter into a quart jar with a lid and ring on it. Place into the refrigerator. This can also be frozen. To get the best results, use the starter about once a week.
• 3. Each time you use the starter, do the following: Pour the starter into a large glass bowl or crock. Add: 2 Cups warm water (90 degrees) and 2-1/2 Cups flour. Stir together and don't worry about any lumps in the batter. This will be a thick batter that will thin as it ferments. Cove the bowl with cheesecloth and put in a warm place for about 12 hours.
• 4. Put 3 cups of the batter into a quart jar with a lid and a ring on it. Put in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks and it will be the start of your next starter.
• 5. The amount of batter left in the bowl should be about 4-1/2 Cups of starter to use for your recipe of choice.
• 6. *** Do not add anything to the starter except flour and (90 degree) warm water. *** You can do this over and over. In San Francisco, there are bakeries there that have starter in a vault as it is protected because it has been used for over 150 years! Be good to your starter... and it will be good to you!

SOURDOUGH STARTER

Steps:

• Day 1:To begin your starter, mix 50g flour with 50g tepid water in a jar or, better still, a plastic container. Make sure all the flour is incorporated and leave, semi-uncovered, at room temperature for 24 hrs.
• Day 2:Mix 50g flour with 50g tepid water and stir into yesterday's mixture. Make sure all the flour is incorporated and leave, semi-uncovered, at room temperature for another 24 hrs.
• Day 3:Mix 50g flour with 50g tepid water and stir into yesterday's mixture. Make sure all the flour is incorporated and leave, semi-uncovered, at room temperature for another 24 hrs.
• Day 4:You should start to see some activity in the mixture now; there should be some bubbles forming and bubbling on top. Mix 50g flour with 50g tepid water and stir into yesterday's mixture. Make sure all the flour is incorporated and leave, semi-uncovered, at room temperature for another 24 hrs.
• Day 5:The mixture should be very active now and ready for making your levain (starter). If it's not bubbling, continue to feed it on a daily basis until it does. When it's ready, it should smell like yogurt.
• You now have a starter, which is the base to the bread. You'll need to look after it, but naming is optional! Keep it in the fridge (it will stay dormant) and 24 hrs before you want to use it, pour half of it off and feed it with 100g flour and 100g water. Leave it at room temperature and it should become active again. The longer the starter has been dormant, the more times it will need to be refreshed - the process of pouring off half the starter and replacing it with new flour and water - to reactivate. If your starter is ready to use, a teaspoonful of the mixture should float in warm water.The starter can now be used to make white sourdough bread.

SOURDOUGH STARTER

Steps:

• In large non-metallic bowl, mix together dry yeast, 2 cups warm water, and 2 cups all purpose flour and cover loosely.
• Leave in a warm place to ferment, 4 to 8 days. Depending on temperature and humidity of kitchen, times may vary. Place on cookie sheet in case of overflow. Check on occasionally.
• When mixture is bubbly and has a pleasant sour smell, it is ready to use. If mixture has a pink, orange, or any other strange color tinge to it, THROW IT OUT! and start over. Keep it in the refrigerator, covered until ready to bake.
• When you use starter to bake, always replace with equal amounts of a flour and water mixture with a pinch of sugar. So, if you remove 1 cup starter, replace with 1 cup water and 1 cup flour. Mix well and leave out on the counter until bubbly again, then refrigerate. If a clear to light brown liquid has accumulated on top, don't worry, this is an alcohol base liquid that occurs with fermentation. Just stir this back into the starter, the alcohol bakes off and that wonderful sourdough flavor remains! Sourdough starters improve with age, they used to be passed down generation to generation!
• Use this starter to make the Sourdough Chocolate Cranberry Cake, and the Sourdough Chocolate Cake.
