I’ve tried and tried and I just can’t figure it out. Does that make sense? I’ve watched people make bread and somehow they manage to keep enough flour between their hand and the dough that it sticks to them a little, but not to such a ridiculous extent. but I always, always wind up with a goppy mess to the point that there’s no dough to mix because it’s all stuck to my fingers and palm making my hand about 4 times the size it should be. See, I’ve tried making biscuits like my grandmother (who mixed them with her hand) and I’ve tried a fork, spoon, the “make a little well in the middle of the flour” method, etc.

Can you please help me by telling me how to add the flour by hand? I am okay guessing on the quantity a bit and I can look at the pictures to help me tell when the dough looks right, but I literally am asking HOW to mix the flour with the water, oil, molasses, etc. In fact, I’ve left it out too long, but only today has it FINALLY had a yeasty smell! YAY!!! Now I’m all excited, but I just looked at mixers and that is WAY out of my price range. Hi, I’ve been working with my starter for a couple of weeks.

(Total time to be able to use it in a recipe: 17 days)Īfter you make your wild yeast starter, be sure to use my favorite homemade wild yeast recipe here. Both are fantastic ways to make fermented probiotic-rich tea, but they have slighted different methods and tastes. They are both awesome for breaking down the phytic acid and anti-nutrients found in grains, but they are different in their gathering and storage practices. For those who want zero sour flavor, the “outside, storing in the fridge” method is best.īoth have similar feeding practices and the terms are often used interchangeably so people tend to get them confused. The result is a stronger yeast (that can be stored in the fridge) and zero or very little sour taste.įor those who love sourdough, the “inside, leave it on the counter” method works great. When you make sourdough, you are typically collecting the natural yeasts that are already in the flour/your home. Wild yeast is an attempt to collect a different strain of yeast from the outside environment. Wild yeast and sourdough are slightly different. The difference between wild yeast and sourdough. I now make bread every week with this homemade wild yeast recipe. Wild yeast bread is a complete food, and I’m so glad I’ve finally learned how to use it in my modern kitchen. Isn’t nature amazing? Wild yeast, something that ALREADY exists in nature, has the ability to turn flour into a higher protein, higher nutrient product. Wild yeast produces a slower rise, but you get a PERFECT loaf of bread, the way nature intended. You get a quick rising bread with store bought yeast, but you don’t get the health benefits that are produced with wild yeast.

The inherent problem with today’s commercial yeast is that since it is ONLY the isolated active ingredient of yeast, not the full wild yeast itself, it only rises bread without breaking down any of the phytic acid or anti-nutrients to aid with digestion. Also, when you make homemade bread with wild yeast you can forget about any digestive discomfort, because there is none. Grains (and their flours) need to be broken down properly in order to fully provide us with all the nutrition they carry. They resist decomposing, which is great for when you want to store grains for a long period. Have you ever wondered why grains can be stored at room temperature without breaking down and going bad? They are built this way. Wild yeast transforms bread into a COMPLETELY different productĪ key reason why wild yeast is MUCH, MUCH BETTER is that during the rising process, it changes the flour into a more nutritionally superior product. You see, grains carry with them anti-nutrients that PREVENT them from breaking down.

A yeast starter can live YEARS, once you start it.Īnd that’s how bread was made for THOUSANDS of years. Yeast starters were totally in style, ya’ll.īefore the active ingredient in yeast was isolated ( in the 1860s), packaged as yeast granules and then sold to homes everywhere, bread was made by a homemade, live yeast starter. The process works by gathering the wild yeast, then keeping it alive by a flour/water mixture.

It lives on plants, in your home, even on your skin.īut, no worries, we’re not using skin yeast to make this bread. At least not today. The history of bread-making is incredibly fascinating. Have you ever wondered how people made bread BEFORE packaged yeast?
