How To make Amish Friendship Bread Starter and Feeder.
1.00 pk Active dry yeast
0.25 c Warm water 110 degrees
1.00 c All-purpose flour
1.00 c Sugar
1.00 c Warm milk
-Starter Food (every 5 -days) 1.00 c All-purpose flour
1.00 c Sugar
1.00 c Milk
In a small bowl, soften yeast in water for 10 minutes. Stir well. In a 2- quart bowl, combine flour and sugar. Mix thor- oughly or the flour will lump when the milk is added. Slowly stir in warm milk and softened yeast mixture. Cover loosely and let stand at room temperature until bubbly. Refrigerate. Consider this day 1 of the 10 day cycle.
Day2 through 4: Stir with a spoon (any kind) Day 5 To feed, blend flour and sugar in a small bowl; slowly mix in milk with a spoon,whisk or hand mixer. Stir mixture into starter. Return to refrigerator. Day 6 through 9: Stir Day 10 ( which becomes Day 1 for the next series) Feed again.
Note: Consider the 10-day cycle a guide; it does not have to be followed exactly. If you need more starter, feed it more often. The starter is a yeast culture and will grow when fed. To hasten growth, leave starter at room temp for several hours.
After feeding the starter.
Choose from among the following.
Return starter to refrigerator.
Remove what you need for baking and leave it at room temperature until very bubbly. Return remainder to refrig- erector and continue to follow the 10-day cycle. If you are getting to much, cut the "food" in half on one feeding. Don't let starter drop below 1 cup, because rejuvenating it to usable amounts takes several days.
Measure out 1 cup lots to give to friends or put in the freezer.
Frozen starter takes at least 3 hours at room temperature to thaw and come to life.

How I Make Homemade Sourdough Bread
When you read about sourdough bread, you'll see it's actually a healthier form of bread. The fermentation helps it to be easier to digest. And an added benefit is that it'll last on the counter a week or longer.
If you need a starter, just comment with your email and i'll send you a starter recipe. I understand it takes a while to make but if you don't have someone to share a starter with you, it'll be so worth it! If you are close to me, i'll be happy to share my 21 yr old starter with you:)
RECIPE:
Mix 1/2 cup sugar, 3 tbsp potato flakes, and 1 cup warm water
Add mixture to starter and leave at room temperature 8-12 hours
Take 1 cup starter and return the rest to the refrigerator.
Mix 1 cup starter, 1 1/2 cups warm water, 1 1/2 tsp salt, 1/2 cup oil, 6 cups bread flour.
Grease large bowl and put dough inside.
Lightly oil top of the dough
Cover with towel, cheesecloth, was paper etc and let rise about 12hours
Punch down, turn it out, knead 8-10times on floured surface
Divide and shape into loaves and/or rolls
Let rise 4-6hours
Bake at 300 for about 50minutes depending on your oven and how brown you want the top of your bread. Golden brown is nice to aim for.
I have no tried to substitute other sugars. This sugar is usually gone in the fermentation process. I have used avocado oil and olive oils. I use Himalayan pink salt. I have used both potato flour and potato flakes but potato flakes works longer in the long run with consistency. I have used Einkorn flour successfully but wasn't crazy about the flavor.
Keep your starter refrigerated when not in use. It should last at least 6months without feeding. You'll know it's still alive when you feed it and hear or see bubbles or activity. It should have a nice mildly sour smell but not foul.
I love to toast a slice of my sourdough with a little real butter to go with my fresh eggs every morning for bfast. I've also used it to make sandwiches. The best bread I've ever ate!
This recipe makes 3 medium loaves or two large. I love making the three....it's an opportunity to share a loaf with someone you love as a nice surprise.... One year, I made loaves of bread for everyone for Christmas:)
Tune in next week to see other ways to use your starter......
Have a great week yall! Stay safe out there. May God bless you.
John 6:35 And Jesus said until them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst.
Day 2 - 5 of How to make Friendship Bread Starter
Just let the air out of the bag. Mush the contents around in the bag and then release any air that is left. And your done! How hard is that? Not hard at all! Do this daily for Days 2 through 5. :)
Day 5 or 6 in How to make Friendship Bread Starter
In the video I made this Day 6. But various places let you know you can do it on Day 5. I have found either day does not matter. For Days 6 (if you do yours on Day 5) through 9 you will do just as you did for Days 2-5, mush the bag, burp the bag and that is it. :)
