Sourdough for bread without yeast at home

We offer a recipe for a long-lasting, "eternal" sourdough on whole wheat flour with the addition of rye bran. If you follow all the conditions, the leaven will ripen for use on the fifth day. After it is ready, some of the sourdough can be mixed with flour and bran and left to ripen again. Thus, the leaven lives indefinitely as long as we feed it and need it. For convenience, the recipe lists the ingredients based on the days you will add them.

For the convenience of the hostess, they knead the dough for the night, and in the morning they begin to bake the bread.
step 13 out of 13
Leftover starter culture can be stored in the refrigerator for up to six to seven days, after which it will need to be fed at the rate of 1 tablespoon of the starter culture per 60 milliliters of water.We add flour so that the consistency of the dough resembles thick sour cream. Leave the mixed mass again at room temperature to ripen.
