Yukon is rich with history about Sourdough bread. As a born and bred Yukoner, we all grew up eating sourdough pancakes and breads. This sourdough starter dates back to before the 1898 Klondike Gold Rush. I distribute this dried starter around the world for people to experiment with. The Puratos Sourdough Library contains this exact starter; it is one of the oldest on record and still widely used.
Características
Klondike takes a while to become active from a dormant, cold state. Long, cool fermentation works the best with this starter. The breads I make are fermented in the fridge for up to 72 hours and sweet doughs made from Klondike are best fried. The crumb on bread made with this starter is softer because of the sugar which makes great sandwich bread, dinner buns, pancakes and donuts.

You can watch a video on my website of how active this starter can get. The original starter lives in the Puratos Sourdough lab in Belgium and has been dna tested. It dates back to 1898 and has been kept alive since that time. It is related to SanFrancisco sourdoughs and was most likely obtained in Seattle, WA or Skagway, Alaska when the gold miners hiked the Chilkoot Trail to Dawson City, Yukon for the 1898 gold rush.
I'd love to find someone in California who is using the same sourdough starter!
