• Adding Sweetener to Whole Wheat Sourdough Bread

  
  The Fresh Loaf — Authority: 452
  Now that I have made a white naturally yeasted bread, I want to try one with mostly whole wheat flour. I have been searching the forums because I thought I had read something about sweeteners and whether they affected the whole grain breads adversely. I usually prefer a touch of sweetness to my whole grain breads so I ...

• Tales of the Sourdough and NaNo News

  
  Margaret Moore — Authority: 127
  Here they are, the first two loaves of sourdough bread Ive ever made. The one on the left looks pretty good; the one on the right is a bit of a mutant. However, we tasted the one on the right, and it was good! And let me just say, our foremothers must have had some powerful arms, because stirring and kneading ...

• Rising Problems with Sourdough No-Knead

  
  The Fresh Loaf — Authority: 452
  Im having trouble getting the rise Id like in a few different no-knead sourdough recipes.  In fact, Im not even sure how long to let the dough proof.  Some recipes call for an hour or two, others up to 4 to 6 hours.  Im definitely not seeing my dough double.  Any ideas how I can remedy this?

• First starter attempt failed; no idea why.

  
  The Fresh Loaf — Authority: 452
  A couple of weeks ago I made a first attempt at making a starter. Unfortunately after about a week it developed a very strong acetone smell which, after much googling, I found out meant the starter was underfed. Opinions seem to be divided on whether or not a starter can be rescued from such a state but I decided to ...

• Sourdough taste

  
  The Fresh Loaf — Authority: 452
  I made the BBA Italian bread with good results, but it stales so quickly.  Ive been redoing almost every recipe in SD just to help with keeping fresh, but I thought there was too much sour taste this time.  Is there a way to tame down the flavor, while maintaining the benefit of the longer freshness?  Ive heard ...

  The Fresh Loaf — Authority: 452
  Today, I baked Hamelmans "Normandy Apple Bread" for the first time. This bread is a pain au levain spiked with instant yeast. It uses a firm starter and bread flour and whole wheat in the final dough. The apple flavor comes from chopped dried apples and apple cider. Jeff (JMonkey) posted the formula and ...

• Feeling deflated

  
  The Fresh Loaf — Authority: 452
  Hi everyone Ive embarked into the world of sourdough baking and am running into the same problem with every loaf: my bread isnt rising properly during its final proofing. Everything looks healthy and rises well during the first two proofings but once I shape it/put it in the tin, it barely rises. Id love some advice ...

• Tales of the Sourdough: the saga continues

  
  Margaret Moore — Authority: 127
  Good thing I split the starter between two containers this time, or it would have been the blob on the counter again. My recipe says to have at least a quart-size container. I dont know what kind of giant quarts theyre referring to, because I needed more than three quarts. It rises, you see, and then contracts, but ...

  Patchwork Times by Judy Laquidara — Authority: 551
  It’s truly not an obsession . . I don’t think.  I’ll tell you next time I get brave enough to see how much weight I’ve gained! I’ve been having fun playing with my bread recipes.  So far, things have turned out great.  One day, I’m sure things won’t turn out so well and the chickens [...]

• San Francisco Sourdough with some durum flour

  
  The Fresh Loaf — Authority: 452
    Ed Wood, who sells sourdough cultures from various parts of the world, insists that a culture will maintain its unique combination of yeast and lactobacillus species and, thus, its unique growth characteristics and flavor, forever. My experience has been otherwise. Ive bought his San Francisco Sourdough culture ...

• Sourdough pancake

  
  The Fresh Loaf — Authority: 452
  I tried the instructions from King Arthurs website this evening to make a pancake/crumpet from sourdough starter.  It came out pretty good, a little tough but they tasted good.  I removed four ounces as I would to feed it.  Added 1/2 teaspoon of sugar and 1/4 teaspoon each of salt and baking soda.  It foamed up ...
