Print Recipe Pin Recipe

Equipment

  • Glass Jar
  • Wooden Spoon
  • Tea Towel

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup Kamut Flour Kamut and Einkorn are my favorites but could use any whole grain unbleached flour you prefer
  • 1 cup Filtered Water

Instructions
 

  • Day 1:
    Mix 1 cup flour, 1 cup filtered water, stir vigorously, making sure to scrape down the sides, and make sure everything is incorporated well. Cover with a clean tea towel and set aside to sit for 24HRS
  • Day 2:
    Discard half the mixture, and then repeat the process! 1 cup flour, 1 cup filtered water (stir vigorously, cover, and set aside)
  • Day 3-5:
    Repeat day 2 instructions for days 3,4,and 5!
  • Day 6-7:
    On days 6 and 7, do the same but feed every 12HRS instead of every 24HRS

Notes

    ** By day 7 there should be enough beneficial bacteria and yeast present to bake sourdough bread and other fermented baked treats like scones, muffins, pancakes, English muffins, and so many more! 
    ** You’ll know its working if it bubbles and doubles in size! 
    **Continue to feed on the counter every 24HRS and Discard.
