Make Your Own Sourdough Starter: Capture and Harness the Wild Yeast Kindle Edition

This instruction booklet is thorough, well researched and tested/used by its author, Teresa L. Greenway. It represents the knowledge she has a acquired about sourdough starter over the years.Yes, I could have gone to Teresa's site and downloaded a copy of this booklet for free but the Kindle version here is $2.99 and I think that is a real bargain considering it enables readers to skip a huge part of the figuring out process and go directly to making a decent starter the first time around, depending on how closely you paid attention to the instructions and suggestions.As for me, I'm happy to have paid for my copy (I say this after reading a couple reviews where people felt they were somehow cheated because they found out after having purchased the booklet - $3.99 for print, $2.99 for Kindle - that there is a free download version on the author's site) in appreciation for Teresa's hard work, sharing her wealth of knowledge about sourdough through many great resources, and to help enable her to be a stay at home mom to her autistic son.For anyone who hasn't read the short biography of the author, I suggest that you do. It's included here on the product page, above the reviews.

I have been following Teresa for years. She has wonderful courses on Udemy a teaching app., I have bought all her courses, they are that good. You can also find her and her courses on YouTube. I feel she is worth investing in. She is easy to follow and gives you all the information you need. The pics are of my starters I have made with her guidance. They were just fed so there are no bubbles but they will all crawl up the jars in a few hours. The one jar has my dried starter, I sent half of it by mail to a friend who can’t use store bought yeast. The raw dough will turn into the ciabatta in the last pic.

This book has good, clear, useful and concise information. I have buyers remorse however because this entire book is available for free download on her website. You can even open and store it in the iBooks app so it is available offline.

Great value for a beginner like myself.I appreciate the detail and price of the book.

I have enjoyed Theresa Greenway on YouTube which is the reason I bought this booklet. I would advise to spend a little more and get a more comprehensive cookbook specifically for sourdough baking. This tiny booklet only covers making sourdough starter which is completely free on the internet or on YouTube.

This is a great book. Why? Because it gave a ton of information on making the starter, variations, types of ingredients and even a bit of science. The recipes were easy to understand and follow.

I almost didn’t buy this because I had a healthy starter already but this little book gave me more information for making bread than the big high rated expensive books did. I have been trying to make a successful loaf of bread for over a year. Read books on the subject and still not quit right. I live on the Big Island of Hawaii it is hot and humid so it is very challenging. I’ve been successful with all the other bake goods with the starter and discarded starter. This book had information on hot temperatures and learning how to test the starter’s peak time instead of the float test.. So much good information that none of the other books, or you tube videos I watched, had this useful information. This book is a treasure of knowledge. I’m going to look at more of her books and web site.

This book is dedicated to making one's own starter. And to that end, it works really really well!After multiple attempts. I have a vibrant starter of my own. I was almost considering buying one put decided to give one other shot and am glad I did. I used the whole wheat + APF mix she suggests. And used only hot water to clean the equipment and NO SOAP! And a little over two weeks later, I have a beautiful starter now that I cant wait to bake with.

Muito bom para quem se interessa em fermentação natural de pães caseiros.

The book is what I expected & arrived within the stated time.

I love this little book for the simplicity of it's instructions. It explained the idea of hydration that I'd never heard of until recently. So easy to understand! Will definitely be giving sourdough a try from this book. Will be checking out Teresa's web pages as well.

German husband and having to learn lots of new bread recipes. This is his favourite, now I have my own sourdough starter. Couldn't be more pleased. He thinks I'm a genius, I'm not going to disillusion him.

Great book by a real expert of bread making. Very good for people that want to start their own sourdough experience.
