Pita Bread Using Homemade Bread Starter

I don't like hard bread... but I really love french breads where you can taste the wheat. That's why I decided to make a soft version.Adjust the water content of the bread starter to control the texture of your bread. Recipe by moss green 7

I didn't fancy a trip to the shops but did have all the ingredients at home so I decided to make the pita bread to go along with some kofta's I was making. I found this recipe on www.thekitchn.com

These pitas came out great! This was my first time making them and they were very easy.

I discovered that bagels made with natural bread starter or leaven came out shiny and smooth, and I wanted to create a recipe that really worked and made delicious bagels!Please adjust the baking time and temperature depending on your oven.Rising times vary depending on the season, so look at the dough to see when it's done rising!

I was able to make a nice yeast, so I used the straight method to turn it into french bread.※ The recipe calls for 75% water, but using about 65~70% at first will make it easier to make (195-210ml).※ I used 36% natural yeast, but 15% should be enough for it to rise sufficiently, so please feel free to reduce as you see fit.(Don't forget to increase the amount of water in turn for this.

The method for making a sourdough starter sponge is the same, regardless of which starter you use! The sponge puffs up and becomes filled with air bubbles, and it's just fun to watch it grow.The method is the same whichever starter liquid you use! I used raisin starter this time.Add the same amount of starter liquid and flour.You can use water instead of starter liquid from the 2nd day onwards, but if you use starter liquid you'll have a more fragrant, robust starter sponge. Recipe by Hirochan

Probably the easiest sourdough bread to make and it tastes awesome!

When I made a mocha-flavored version of my usual baguettes, they turned out great.Since the rising time depends on the climate, do a 'finger check' to see if the dough has risen enough. (To do the finger check: dip your finger in flour, press down into the center of the dough; it's ready if it leaves a mark. If the dough springs back, it's not finished rising. If the dough shrinks, it has risen too much.) Recipe by Miyanbo

My family loves these wiener sausage stuffed rolls.Let's make them using homemade bread starter (natural leaven). Recipe by Tsuka mama

I revised a recipe that I found in a magazine.The pitas will rise when they're freshly baked, but will flatten quickly. These are also great stuffed with dry curry or beans. Recipe by Yuuyuu0221

This is a small batch recipe for 3 medium pita breads. The secret to getting them to puff up into pockets is a super hot oven (at least 260°C/500°F). I recommend sticking to white flour for this because it seems whole wheat flours don't do a good job of rising well (which means no pocket!).Great for falafel, or any kind of sandwich fillings you like. Here are a couple of my falafel recipes if you need one ;)Regular Chickpea Falafel: https://cookpad.wasmer.app/us/recipes/282549-no-fail-chickpea-falafelBeet Falafel: https://cookpad.wasmer.app/us/recipes/246975-beet-falafelButternut Squash Falafel: https://cookpad.wasmer.app/us/recipes/283109-butternut-squash-falafel

This is an egg yolk-less version of"Sugar-topped Honey Bread With Homemade Yeast". I adjusted the amount of milk used in the dough, and topped the loaf with cinnamon sugar.The kneading and rising terms are guidelines only. Since they will vary depending on circumstances, please adjust accordingly. I have used cinnamon sugar as a topping, but a sugar-only topping is delicious, too.If you wrap the bread with plastic, it will stick to the sugar on the top, so I wrap the sides with plastic and put a piece of kitchen parchment paper on top to prevent the bread from drying out. For 1 18 cm [7.1 in] square pan worth. Recipe by Lesser Panda

This is a basic macrobiotic recipe for 100% whole wheat bread using homemade bread starter.I used raisin yeast (see recipe) for this bread.Since it uses liquid yeast, this recipe is quite straightforward.I generally prepare the dough in the evening, and do the second rising, then bake it the following morning.It's also good to add nuts or dried fruit of your choice to the dough.

Several years ago, I wanted to make pizza and was searching on the internet, when I learned about natural leaven. Ever since then I've been captivated by natural leaven (natural yeast or sourdough) bread.In the winter, I put the jar next to my electric kettle or rice cooker. In any case, when the mixture is very foamy and bubbly, and it smells alcoholic, it's done. Add the same amount of water as the amount of starter you used as well as some honey, sugar or 100% fruit juice, and the starter will keep going for years. If using 100 % fruit juice, don't add any sugar. If the starter smells rotten, throw it out.When the starter is down to about 10g, add 200 g of water, 100 g of raisins, and 30 g of sugar and let it re-ferment. Recipe by Raichi

My go-to recipe when I crave for a wrap. Hope you guys enjoy this recipe! Happy eating! 🤍

I wanted to enjoy a simple bread.The proofing time varies depending on the room temperature and the type and strength of the starter used, so please adjust accordingly. Recipe by Panko625

I've been making this for a while.There's a lot of wild yeast on the peel and core of the apple, so don't throw them out. It takes a bit more time to make this in the winter. If you add the same amount of boiled then cooled water as the starter you took out, plus sugar or honey to the remaining starter, let it ferment again and store in the refrigerator, the starter will stay alive for years. You can add 100% apple juice instead of the boiled then cooled water to feed the starter too. In that case, don't add any sugar. If there is only 1/3rd of the starter left, add the abovementioned starter additions, let it ferment at room temperature for 2 days or so, strain and store in the refrigerator. Recipe by Raichi

I was making "eterno"'s bagels and was really impressed by the idea of using a processor to make them. I wondered if it was possible to make pita bread the same way, and after much trial and error I finally arrived at this recipe.In Step 4, make sure the seams are facing up when rolling the dough out with a rolling pin. Stretch it out gently. If the dough doesn't rise enough, open it up with a knife. When using an electric oven, bake at 300℃ for best results. Recipe by Akkorin mama

I am so glad you liked it.

I wanted to make ciabatta with the full flavor of wheat...You use very little yeast in this recipe, so it takes a long time, but just take things nice and slow.The dough will be very soft and hard to handle, so dust it well and use a rubber spatula.Usually you would let the dough rise at room temperature, but when it's warm, it will rise too much; in warmer temperatures, put it in the vegetable compartment in the fridge. Recipe by mihotti33

Naturally leavened bread takes time to bake, but I thought it may be quicker to make bagels. So I tried!Fermentation speed will depend on the temperature and bread starter, so leave the prefermented dough until it had doubled or tripled in size.I don't think you need more than 2 hours to let the dough rise after you shape it. Recipe by jirocho

I heard bread prepared with homemade black tea starter is delicious, so I wanted to try making some.Use loose leaf tea.Mix up the contents of the container once a day, open the lid and let some air in.I slosh it around with the lid on to mix it. When it starts fermenting, you'll hear a popping sound. Recipe by Hirochan

I love pita bread, so I attempted to make it at home since it's not easily available.So simple, since the dough only needs to rise once.Adjust the baking temperature to suit your oven. It was slightly high for my gas oven, so I burned them. Recipe by Kittymama

When I was making a raisin bread starter, I learned that I could make starter using all kinds of ingredients.Yogurt ferments quickly. In the summer this can be made in a day. It can be stored for about 2 months, but try to use it up quickly. Starter can be used in cooking as well as for bread, so try experimenting. Recipe by Raichi

I referenced Yuriko Aida's book "Baking Bread with Homemade Yeast--Through the Seasons". Although the author uses only domestically grown wheat, I revised the recipe to more accessible ingredients.You can substitute bread (strong) flour for the whole wheat flour. I use Weck's tulip-shaped 1 liter jar. I recommend it since it's easy to stir the contents. Airtight jars with rubber gaskets are good, but I'm afraid of breakage from fermentation. You can also use a large bottle, or any container and wrap it in plastic wrap. Recipe by Surou

I was amazed at the pita bread I ate in a Turkish store, so I came up with this recipe for a puffy pita using the same dough as naan.The tips for puffy pita are to allow the surface to dry a bit after rolling, bake them with the bottom moist side up, and to bake at a high temperature for a short amount of time.By adding baking powder, I was able to get the dough to puff up nicely. Recipe by Kuminchan

I'm into baking bread from natural leaven, but when I tried baking from a liquid starter, it was hard to knead and took too much time. Bread baking is tricky, but by using this moderate amount of bread flour (160 g), which is what they use in my basic cooking class, it will be easier to knead.Using a domestic flour blend (I used "Haruyutaka"), about 60 g of flour was sufficient. Use a tad more in the winter. Adjust the amount of water depending on your bread flour and climate. While you may allow a lot of time for the first proofing, time for the second proofing should be shorter in order for a tasty result. Keep an eye on the dough during the second proofing. For 190°c, about 14 minutes. Recipe by Choco dayo

Since this bread starter is made by adding flour to yogurt, it's easy to see how it's fermenting, unlike some other starters. You can store this starter in the refrigerator for about 5 days. If you leave a little leftover, use half the amount of water, bread flour and sugar in step 5, and incubate for 5-6 hours at room temperature you can grow more starter. If you do this twice, your starter will ferment better. If it takes on an "off" smell like a dishtowel, it's better to manfully throw it away.To get a bread starter going, in the spring, summer and fall you can just let it rest at room temperature. In midsummer when it's very hot, put it in a cool location in your room when you're at home, and put it in the refrigerator when you go out if your house will get very hot. You can also put it in an insulated polystyrene container with ice packs to keep it at under 25 °C. In the winter, put the starter jar on top of the refrigerator, near the stove, near your electric water kettle or in your boiler room. You could also make a fermentation box using a thermostat meant for tropical fish aquariums and an insulated box. But don't put the starter in a very warm location. Recipe by mipon
