Depuis 2015
I enjoyed making yeasted bread but missed the 'chew' of a good sourdough, I tried yeasted Poolish, No knead yeasted but none gave me what I wanted until I started making Sourdough in 2015, since then I've never looked back!
Caractéristiques
A fairly active but more refined starter than Barye, my 100% Rye starter. Despite being active it is very mellow with low acidity, good for making breads, Ciabatta, pancakes, Naan bread etc Normal doubling is 4~5 hours but can be encouraged, with warmth, to double in 2~3
