Dehydrated Simple Sourdough Starter

$7.00

A sourdough starter is the heart and soul of sourdough baking. It’s a natural, wild yeast leavening agent made from a simple mixture of flour and water. Over time, this mixture ferments, cultivating a diverse community of wild yeasts and beneficial bacteria from the environment.
Here's how it works:

1. Initiation: You start with equal parts of flour and water. This mixture captures wild yeast and bacteria from the air and the flour itself.

2. Fermentation: Over a few days, the mixture begins to bubble and develop a pleasant sour aroma. This indicates that the microorganisms are active and fermenting the sugars in the flour.

3. Feeding: To maintain the starter's strength and activity, it needs to be "fed" with fresh flour and water regularly. This keeps the yeast and bacteria thriving.

A well-nurtured starter will give your sourdough bread a distinct flavor, airy texture, and the perfect chewiness. The fermentation process also breaks down complex sugars, making the bread easier to digest and adding depth to its taste.

Our simple sourdough starter is dehydrated chips of aged sourdough, and a recipe for reanimation when you’re ready to begin feeding it so you can make your own sourdough products.
