This guide is here to help! Learn how to create a stiff sourdough starter from scratch and maintain it with minimal effort. A strong and active sourdough starter is the foundation of successful sourdough baking. In a nutshell, a sourdough starter is a natural leavening agent to make bread rise instead of using commercial yeast. Creating a starter from scratch is very simple, but it takes a bit of patience: All you have to do is mix flour and water and wait for the natural fermentation process to work its magic. The starter creation process takes about 7 days from start to finish. Hang in there, and you will be rewarded with a loyal companion for your sourdough baking adventures. Once your starter is active and well established, it\u2019s important to take good care of it. Don\u2019t worry, it\u2019s easier than you might think. My simple sourdough maintenance routine is effortless and doesn\u2019t require daily feedings.<\/p>\n\n\n<style>.kb-image1453_feac04-f4 .kb-image-has-overlay:after{opacity:0.3;}<\/style>\n<div class=\"wp-block-kadence-image kb-image1453_feac04-f4\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"720\" height=\"1080\" src=\"https:\/\/notjustfood.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Sourdough-Starter-3.jpg\" alt=\"A weck glass jar filled with active and bubbly sourdough starter.\" class=\"kb-img wp-image-1526\" srcset=\"https:\/\/notjustfood.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Sourdough-Starter-3.jpg 720w, https:\/\/notjustfood.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Sourdough-Starter-3-600x900.jpg 600w, https:\/\/notjustfood.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Sourdough-Starter-3-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/notjustfood.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Sourdough-Starter-3-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/notjustfood.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Sourdough-Starter-3-8x12.jpg 8w, https:\/\/notjustfood.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Sourdough-Starter-3-480x720.jpg 480w, https:\/\/notjustfood.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Sourdough-Starter-3-150x225.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Is a Sourdough Starter?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A sourdough starter is a naturally fermented leavening agent that can be used to raise bread and other baked goods instead of using commercial yeast. Bread leavened exclusively with sourdough is called \u201cnaturally leavened\u201d.&nbsp; Aside from its leavening power, sourdough is also known for its flavorful taste and is said to be more nutritious and easier to digest. Sourdough isn\u2019t literally \u201csour\u201d dough. Depending on how you cultivate and maintain your starter, you can achieve either a mild or more tangy flavor profile. A sourdough starter can also easily be turned into a sweet leaven and works wonderfully to raise sweet baked goods.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To create a sourdough starter from scratch, flour, and water are combined and left in a warm spot to naturally ferment over the course of at least 7 days. Each day, some of that mixture will be discarded, and the remainder will be replenished with fresh flour and water. Over time, the starter develops a stable culture of wild yeasts and beneficial bacteria needed to raise bread dough. These microorganisms feed on the sugars in the flour and produce carbon dioxide bubbles, which make the starter rise and leaven the dough. Once they have consumed all the \u201cfood\u201d available in the jar, the starter will collapse and get hungry. Eventually, the bubbles disappear, and it\u2019s time to feed your starter again. Then the cycle repeats.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What\u2019s the Difference Between a Stiff Sourdough Starter and a Liquid Starter?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The key difference between a stiff starter and a liquid starter is the hydration level. Most regular sourdough starters are kept at 100% hydration, which means they are fed with equal parts of water and flour by weight. Stiff starters are kept at a lower hydration level (usually anywhere from 50% \u2013 65 %) and will contain double the amount of flour as compared to the amount of water. Liquid starters have a batter-like consistency, whereas stiff starters have a consistency similar to bread dough. Both types of starters work equally well to leaven bread, but have different beneficial properties. It mostly comes down to personal preference which type of starter you want to cultivate. A liquid starter can easily be turned into a stiff starter by adjusting the flour to water ratio and vice versa. I\u2019ve experimented with both types of starters and personally prefer to work with a stiff starter. Here\u2019s why:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<style>.wp-block-kadence-iconlist.kt-svg-icon-list-items1453_2ccf8c-41:not(.this-stops-third-party-issues){margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;}.wp-block-kadence-iconlist.kt-svg-icon-list-items1453_2ccf8c-41 ul.kt-svg-icon-list:not(.this-prevents-issues):not(.this-stops-third-party-issues):not(.tijsloc){margin-top:0px;margin-right:0px;margin-bottom:var(--global-kb-spacing-sm, 1.5rem);margin-left:0px;}.wp-block-kadence-iconlist.kt-svg-icon-list-items1453_2ccf8c-41 ul.kt-svg-icon-list{grid-row-gap:5px;}.wp-block-kadence-iconlist.kt-svg-icon-list-items1453_2ccf8c-41 .kb-svg-icon-wrap{color:var(--global-palette2, #2B6CB0);}.wp-block-kadence-iconlist.kt-svg-icon-list-items1453_2ccf8c-41 ul.kt-svg-icon-list .kt-svg-icon-list-item-wrap .kt-svg-icon-list-single{margin-right:10px;}.kt-svg-icon-list-items1453_2ccf8c-41 ul.kt-svg-icon-list .kt-svg-icon-list-level-0 .kt-svg-icon-list-single svg{font-size:20px;}<\/style>\n<div class=\"wp-block-kadence-iconlist kt-svg-icon-list-items kt-svg-icon-list-items1453_2ccf8c-41 kt-svg-icon-list-columns-1 alignnone kt-list-icon-aligntop\"><ul class=\"kt-svg-icon-list\">\n<li class=\"wp-block-kadence-listitem kt-svg-icon-list-item-wrap kt-svg-icon-list-item-1453_34ccc6-f4\"><span class=\"kb-svg-icon-wrap kb-svg-icon-fe_checkSquare kt-svg-icon-list-single\"><svg viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\"  fill=\"none\" stroke=\"currentColor\" stroke-width=\"2\" stroke-linecap=\"round\" stroke-linejoin=\"round\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"  aria-hidden=\"true\"><polyline points=\"9 11 12 14 22 4\"\/><path d=\"M21 12v7a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H5a2 2 0 0 1-2-2V5a2 2 0 0 1 2-2h11\"\/><\/svg><\/span><span class=\"kt-svg-icon-list-text\"><em>I\u2019ve found that a stiff starter produces a milder taste and a less acidic aroma.<\/em><\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"wp-block-kadence-listitem kt-svg-icon-list-item-wrap kt-svg-icon-list-item-1453_0428d0-1e\"><span class=\"kb-svg-icon-wrap kb-svg-icon-fe_checkSquare kt-svg-icon-list-single\"><svg viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\"  fill=\"none\" stroke=\"currentColor\" stroke-width=\"2\" stroke-linecap=\"round\" stroke-linejoin=\"round\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"  aria-hidden=\"true\"><polyline points=\"9 11 12 14 22 4\"\/><path d=\"M21 12v7a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H5a2 2 0 0 1-2-2V5a2 2 0 0 1 2-2h11\"\/><\/svg><\/span><span class=\"kt-svg-icon-list-text\"><em>Liquid starters tend to rise and fall quicker, which means they need more frequent feedings.

Stir until well combined. Cover loosely with a lid and let it sit in a warm spot (ideally 26 -30\u00b0 C) for about 12 hours. In the winter, you can place it in the oven with a hot water bottle on the bottom rack to create a nice and warm environment for the starter to rise in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the evening, give it a good stir and let it rest in a warm spot overnight. Stirring it down in the evening redistributes the food for the bacteria and boosts fermentation activity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading has-theme-palette-2-color has-text-color\">Day 2<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Add 20 g of light rye flour, 20 g of lukewarm water and a tiny bit of honey to the jar. Stir to combine and let it rest in a warm spot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the evening, stir it down again and let it rest until the next morning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading has-theme-palette-2-color has-text-color\">Day 3<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Between Day 2 and Day 3, you might see an initial burst of fermentation activity. The starter might have a mousse-like texture, and it\u2019s common to see lots of air bubbles on the sides of the jar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Discard half of the starter mixture and add 20 g of rye flour, 20 g of lukewarm water and a tiny bit of honey. Stir to combine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the evening, stir it down again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading has-theme-palette-2-color has-text-color\">Day 4<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>On Day 4, you will introduce some all-purpose flour and reduce the amount of rye flour.<br>Discard half of the starter. Add 10 g of rye flour, 10 g of all-purpose flour, 20 g of lukewarm water and bit of honey. Mix well to combine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the evening, you might see some growth again, with lots of air bubbles on the surface and the sides of the jar. Stir it down and let it rest until the next morning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading has-theme-palette-2-color has-text-color\">Day 5<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Discard all but 30 g of the starter mixture. Add 30 g of lukewarm water and 30 g of flour. You can continue to feed it with a blend of rye and all-purpose flour, or switch to using only wheat (or any flour of your choice). I prefer to keep a wheat starter, as it tends to produce a milder and less tangy taste.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Stir it down in the evening.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading has-theme-palette-2-color has-text-color\">Day 6<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>On Day 6, you will feed your starter in the morning and evening. You will also increase the flour to water ratio to turn your liquid starter into a stiff starter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the morning, discard everything but 30 g of the starter. Add 30 g of lukewarm water and dissolve the starter in the water. Add 60 g of flour. The texture of the starter will now be similar to bread dough. Use a fork to bring everything together into a shaggy dough. Then, briefly knead it on the counter until smooth and well combined. The texture of the starter is quite firm and easy to work with, so it shouldn\u2019t stick your hands. Put it back in the jar and let it rest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the evening, repeat the same steps as in the morning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading has-theme-palette-2-color has-text-color\">Day 7<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Repeat the same steps as on Day 6. Observe your starter and take note of how quickly it rises and falls. At this stage, your starter should show consistent signs of fermentation (doubling in size, lots of air bubbles, a mildly sour and yoghurt-like aroma). If your starter reliably rises and doubles in size within 4-6 hours after feeding, it\u2019s a good indicator that it\u2019s active and ready to use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading has-theme-palette-2-color has-text-color\">Day 8 and Onward<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Discard everything but 30 g of the starter, add 30 g of lukewarm water and 60 g of flour. Stir and knead to combine. Let it rise in a warm spot. The starter is ripe and ready to use when it has significantly grown in size (doubled or even tripled), contains lots of air bubbles, has a pleasant dairy-like aroma and a slightly domed top. If it\u2019s not active yet, continue to feed it twice daily for a few more days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em><strong>See pictures below for reference:<\/strong>&nbsp;The first image was taken in the morning right after feeding. The second image was taken 5 hours later when it was ripe and ready to use. Please don\u2019t attempt to bake with a new starter if it\u2019s not active yet. It will not produce satisfactory results.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n<style>.wp-block-kadence-advancedgallery

If your starter is already past its peak, it will start to lose its leavening power. Eventually, it will collapse, the bubbles disappear, and it might start to smell more acidic. This is a sign that your starter is hungry and needs a refreshment before you bake with it.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-kadence-pane kt-accordion-pane kt-accordion-pane-3 kt-pane1453_7c72f4-14\"><div class=\"kt-accordion-header-wrap\"><button class=\"kt-blocks-accordion-header kt-acccordion-button-label-show\"><span class=\"kt-blocks-accordion-title-wrap\"><span class=\"kt-blocks-accordion-title\">I left my starter in the fridge and forgot to feed it for a while.

Bringing it back to life might take a few days, be patient!<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-kadence-pane kt-accordion-pane kt-accordion-pane-4 kt-pane1453_51393b-11\"><div class=\"kt-accordion-header-wrap\"><button class=\"kt-blocks-accordion-header kt-acccordion-button-label-show\"><span class=\"kt-blocks-accordion-title-wrap\"><span class=\"kt-blocks-accordion-title\">How do I take care of my starter if I go on vacation?<\/span><\/span><span class=\"kt-blocks-accordion-icon-trigger\"><\/span><\/button><\/div><div class=\"kt-accordion-panel kt-accordion-panel-hidden\"><div class=\"kt-accordion-panel-inner\">\n<p>Just feed your starter and put it directly in the fridge before it reaches its peak.

Hooch is actually alcohol that occurs as a by-product of the fermentation activity in the jar. It\u2019s generally harmless, but can make your starter very acidic and tangy. You can pour it off or stir it into your starter and then refresh it as usual. If your starter consistently produces this liquid, it\u2019s an indicator that it needs more frequent feedings or a higher ratio of fresh flour and water.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<style>.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading1453_26f4a1-94,

Rye flour provides more nutrients to boost your starter and kick-start the fermentation process. Once your starter is strong and well established, you can maintain and refresh it with any flour of your choice. I, personally, keep a wheat starter, as I&#39;ve found that it produces a milder taste is more versatile to use in different recipes.<\/span><\/li><li class=\"wprm-recipe-ingredient\" style=\"list-style-type: disc;\" data-uid=\"4\"><span class=\"wprm-recipe-ingredient-amount\">340<\/span>&#32;<span class=\"wprm-recipe-ingredient-unit\">g<\/span>&#32;<span class=\"wprm-recipe-ingredient-name\">All-purpose Flour<\/span>&#32;<span class=\"wprm-recipe-ingredient-notes wprm-recipe-ingredient-notes-normal\">Look for a protein content of 11-12 %<\/span><\/li><li class=\"wprm-recipe-ingredient\" style=\"list-style-type: disc;\" data-uid=\"1\"><span class=\"wprm-recipe-ingredient-amount\">260<\/span>&#32;<span class=\"wprm-recipe-ingredient-unit\">g<\/span>&#32;<span class=\"wprm-recipe-ingredient-name\">Water<\/span>&#32;<span class=\"wprm-recipe-ingredient-notes wprm-recipe-ingredient-notes-normal\">Lukewarm (around 30\u00b0 C)<\/span><\/li><li class=\"wprm-recipe-ingredient\" style=\"list-style-type: disc;\" data-uid=\"2\"><span class=\"wprm-recipe-ingredient-name\">Raw honey<\/span>&#32;<span class=\"wprm-recipe-ingredient-notes wprm-recipe-ingredient-notes-normal\"> &#8211; optional but recommended.
