Basic Sourdough Bread Recipe- So Easy and Delicious

Greetings,
Come along as we are making homemade sourdough bread. This is a basic sourdough bread recipe and It is so easy and very delicious. It is also a healthy alternative to regular white bread as sourdough is lower on the glycemic index, very similar to whole wheat.

Sourdough Starter Recipe from https://thesouthernladycooks.com/sourdough-bread-anyone/
3 tablespoons instant mashed potato flakes

3 tablespoons white sugar

1 cup warm water

2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast or one package

Combine all ingredients in a glass container, stir with a wooden spoon. Cover with clean dishcloth or cheesecloth and let sit for 5 days, stirring daily with a wooden spoon. Do not refrigerate.

On the morning of the 5th day, feed the starter 3 tablespoons of instant potatoes, 3 tablespoons of sugar, and 1 cup of warm water. Stir and cover and let stand until evening or at least 6 hours.

Remove one cup of starter and place the rest of the starter in the refrigerator. Make sure there are holes in the top of the container. The starter needs to be able to breathe.

Every 5 days repeat feeding instructions and remove 1 cup and discard or make bread.

Sourdough Bread Recipe from The Southern Lady Cooks:
