Hi Wao!
You seem like such an amazing baker. I only recently
came on to your site trying to learn more about wild yeast
and how the process works.
I notice that in this post you only mention how to get a
yeast water / yeast starter from dried fruit, but I notice
that some of the waters you use are from things like
tomatoes and applecores. It would be great if you could
update the "are you lost"-section to include the methods
you use for doing yeast water from pits, and fruits which
are not dried.
I saw one here:
http://originalyeast.blogspot.com/search?updatedmax=2009-03-17T07%3A13%3A00-07%3A00&
max-results=7
but am not sure that's the only one you have; it's hard to
nd everything amongst all the posts you've made, some
of which just include photos, and others that have full
recipes, and others just notes.

http://originalyeast.blogspot.ca/2008/02/how-to-make-yea...

I'd love to hear back for more details or tips on how to get
a good strong yeast from dierent parts of fruits which
are not dried.
I think I am going to try starting with organic banana
peel tonight with a bit of propolis honey. I think I'm also
going to try some from kiwi-skins from today. Do you
think either of those could work?
Thanks Wao.

Hi.
I have not made a page to show you how to make yeast
water from fresh fruits but you can see some instruction
here
http://originalyeast.blogspot.com/2009/03/new-appleyeast-water.html
Basic method is same as using dried fruits.
You need clea jar, water and fruits(and sugar). Mix water
and fruits together in a jar.
**You are now making kiwi yeast watar? Kiwi has
'actinidin' that breaks protein so it is not good to make
bread because our contains lots of protein.
But don't get disappointed!
Once you get the yeast water, you can use it for cooking.
Since the yeast water breaks protein, it can make meat
tender. (like pineapple in hamburger ^_^!)
So soak the meat in the yeast water for 1 hour and grill it.
you can get tender meat!
Or, if it is sweet, you can just drin k it for your health.
Banana yeast gives you good bread.
good luck

work for bread because "Kiwi has 'actinidin' that breaks


protein so it is not good to make bread because our
contains lots of protein."
But I saw on a wonderful cooking show called "Cook's
County Tv" by Cook's Illustrated that for breads like
Cinnabuns, that they use cornstarch to break down the
protiens in the break so that they bread is uer!
So I think that Kiwi water might be a good thing if you
want uy bread, but I am not an expert baker.
What do you think?
M ARC H 1 0 , 2 0 1 0 8:4 6 PM
wao said...
hi, daddygotknittedme.
Adding cornstarch breaks down protein...I think that
method makes the our weaker (because corn starch
barely contains protein) so the bread gets uer.
Lots of protein in our yield to strong gluten which tends
to make chewier bread.(though not always)
I guess the phrase "break down" means several ways.
When using kiwi(, pineapple or papaya) for baking, the
actinidin(, bromelain or papain) melt the dough
down.really sticky and sometimes almost impossible to
handle.
I guess in the show that you watched used the phrase
"break down" as if the starch make friends with gluten
and gluten's tight friendship breaks down....
ummm.....holding hands like
gluten-starch-gluten-starch-gluten...so the gluten power
is not strong anymore. That means less chewy and uer.
I heard that golden kiwi yeast water makes good bread. I
think golden kiwi has less actinidin?
Do you wanna try ???
Thank you for the information!

I smashed a handful of red grapes and put them in water.
After one day they are fermenting strongly; I see soda-like
bubbles rising to the surface. I'm wondering if it's better
to start a preferment now when it's fermenting vigorously,
or wait till it calms down and the yeast cells are at their
peak? I actually have enough to try both ways I suppose.

Hi my name is Susan Sethi. I live in Toronto Canada.

My son has multiple food sensitivities. He is on a rotation


diet and is a patient of a Dr. Rea in Dallas Texas. Dr Rea
has many patients on similar diets. We were getting our
amazing bread from a co in Dallas called Francis Simun.
He was able to do yeast free milk free bread out of single
grains, a culture, sea salt and water. They went out of
business and now I running really low on bread supplies.
MY son cannot tolerate wheat but can tolerate quinoa,
millet, kamut amaranth te tapioca arrowroot yam
cassava and soy potato. I am desperate to nd a baker
that can do yeast free wheat free bread that tastes good.
Can you help me? I am willing to learn but right now just
need to know if have had success with any of the above
breads?

My son is only 7 years old and in his short life he has gone
from almost being placed on a feeding tube b/c of his food
sensitivities to an average kid and I cannot go back to the
hell he experienced three years ago. Thanks to this
rotation diet he and myself and my husband have been
given a second chance at life. Willing to pay you or anyone
who can make any of the above bread well.

I do have two questions though, can I 'keep this alive' in

use this in a bread starter, like Amish Friendship Bread?

Morning everyone from Quito: this week I baked a couple
of loaves with fruit water yeast succesfully...good avor,
longer times of raising, good raising...i'd say that people
starting to approach to sourdough and are frustrated,
could try this kind of yeast...you get it faster (in quito,
with an average temp of 18 c degrees, after 48 hours it
was almost ready to use)than sourdough and the avour is
dierent from both sourdough and beer
yeast...Recommend it! Cheers Paolo

You start seeing some small bubbles in the jar.


It might take more than 24hours to see bubbles depending on
room temperature.

They still smell fruits.


My house is not very warm about 50 degrees. Do you think
it is too cold for the yeast to grow or do you think the
yeasts are already dead? Should I start over?
I appreciate your advise!

Hi Wao,
Thank you for your reponse!
I placed the jars in a warmer room after I wrote my
previous comment, and the next day, "Voila!" more raisins
oated and it smelled like alcohol a little! This morning

I went to my favorite
boulangeries.

the smell was more signicant so I think I will take the


fruits out tomorrow.
This is actually a my daughter's science project but I
picked the theme so that I can bake nice bread. :-P I am
glad it seems to be working now.
Hope you are having a great time in Japan. I was there 3
weeks ago.

Glad to hear that you and your daughter are getting nice
result^^
If you prefer to keep the fruits in the jar, you could do so.
Hope that you would be able to bake good bread.
It's cold in japan...

Hi Wao,
We were able to bake simple rolls with the yeast water I
made!
First the dough was very soft and it was dicult to
handle, but it turned out ok. I guess it is usual when
using yeast water straight from the jar..?
Also, I will leave the fruits inside the jar next time. ^^
Thank you for your advise!
