Amish Friendship Starter & Bread Recipe

Amish Friendship Starter & Bread Recipe

At the heart of this timeless recipe is the Amish bread starter, the foundation for the entire baking process. Unlike commercial yeast, the Amish bread starter relies on natural fermentation to leaven the dough, resulting in a unique flavor profile and a soft texture. It’s a living, breathing entity that requires care and attention, much like tending to a garden.
