Starting a sourdough starter from scratch is so much easier than people think, and you only need a few simple supplies to get going. I’ll walk you through exactly what I use and keep on my counter. The most important thing to know up front is to use the same brand and type of flour for the first few weeks. Switching flours while your starter is establishing can throw it off, so grab a fresh bag and stick with it until your starter is strong and active. Here’s what makes the process easier: 🫧 A jar with a wide opening and rounded bottom, which makes stirring and mixing the flour and water so much easier than a jar with sharp corners 🫧 A small jar spatula to mix and scrape down the sides so your starter stays clean 🫧 A fresh bag of my favorite flour, used consistently for the first few weeks 🫧 A kitchen scale for accurate measuring and feeding, and you’ll reach for it constantly once you start baking bread 🫧 A warming pad to keep your starter cozy if your house runs cooler than 75 degrees, which speeds up the whole process Want my full step by step instructions?
