Sourdough Starter Journey: Day 3 - Feeding and Discarding
Welcome back to our Sourdough Starter Journey! On Day 3, we're diving into the essential care routine for your sourdough starter, especially during its crucial early stages.
Here's your comprehensive care routine for the first 10 days:
Mix Every 12 Hours (First 10 Days Only):
Stir your sourdough starter thoroughly every 12 hours to promote even fermentation and activity, helping establish a robust culture.
Feed Every 24 Hours (Approximately):
Feed your sourdough starter with fresh flour and water approximately every 24 hours .
Use a 1:2:2 feeding ratio (starter:flour:water) to replenish its nutrients and encourage growth.
Discard Excess Starter (First 10 Days Only):
Before each feeding, discard any excess starter from the jar, leaving only the desired amount for feeding.
Repeat this process for the first 10 days to maintain a manageable quantity and promote a healthy starter.
Use Filtered Spring Water or Tap Water Left at Room Temperature for 24 Hours:
When using tap water, let it sit at room temperature in a bottle for 24 hours to allow chlorine to dissipate, ensuring a healthier environment for the yeast and bacteria.
Alternatively, opt for filtered spring water to provide optimal hydration for your starter.
After 10 days, your sourdough starter should be mature enough to use in baking. You can start baking with it and store any excess discard in the fridge. This discard can be used in discard recipes or to refresh your starter if needed in the future.
Don't tighten the lid! Allowing airflow is essential for the fermentation process, so keep your jar covered loosely or partially open. Let's nurture our starters with care and watch them thrive into beautiful, flavorful cultures. Happy baking!

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.

Creamy homemade custard
ngredients:
Custard mixture (prepared from 300 ml milk, 2 spoons vanilla, 5 spoons flour, and 3 eggs)
700 ml (about 3 cups) milk
9 tablespoons sugar
Instructions:
Prepare custard mixture: As per the previous instructions, mix together 300 ml milk, 2 spoons vanilla, 5 spoons flour, and 3 eggs in a mixing bowl until smooth.
Heat milk and sugar: In a large pot, pour in the 700 ml of milk and add the 9 tablespoons of sugar. Place the pot over medium heat and stir continuously until the sugar is fully dissolved and the milk comes to a gentle boil. Be careful not to let the milk boil over.
Add custard mixture: Once the milk has come to a gentle boil and the sugar is dissolved, slowly pour the prepared custard mixture into the pot, stirring constantly as you pour.
Stir and thicken: Continue stirring the mixture over medium heat. As the custard mixture heats up, it will begin to thicken. Stir continuously to prevent lumps from forming and to ensure that the custard cooks evenly.
Determine desired thickness: Cook the custard until it reaches your desired thickness. Keep in mind that it will thicken further as it cools, so you may want to stop cooking it just before it reaches your desired consistency.
Remove from heat: Once the custard has reached the desired thickness, remove the pot from the heat.
Serve or chill: You can serve the custard cream warm immediately, or if you prefer it chilled, transfer it to a bowl and cover the surface with plastic wrap to prevent a skin from forming. Allow it to cool at room temperature before chilling it in the refrigerator.
Enjoy: Your homemade custard cream is now ready to be enjoyed! Serve it as a delicious dessert on its own, or use it to fill pastries, cakes, or other desserts.
This custard cream recipe yields a rich and creamy dessert that's perfect for any occasion. Adjust the sweetness or flavorings to suit your taste preferences. Enjoy your homemade custard cream!
