Most sourdough bread recipes call for 100-200 grams of starter per loaf of bread. That's 100-200 grams of starter to 500 grams of flour. In this video, I'm pushing the sourdough starter to the extreme by making one loaf of sourdough bread with 700 grams of starter. In baker's math, that's 140% sourdough starter!

Here's my previous video where I made a whole loaf of sourdough bread with only ONE GRAM of starter. It's basically the exact opposite of this technique - https://youtu.be/HWiwRDzTvrA

Here's the written recipe for what I used in this video -
To feed the starter:
Starter - 100g
Water - 300g
Bread Flour - 300g

To mix the dough:
Starter - 700g (All of the starter from the feeding above)
Salt - 10g
Bread Flour - 150g
(No additional water is necessary)
