I ate the fantastic bread from Handwerk artisan bakery in Oslo and it was better than my own bread. I got the seed of Diiva from there and converted to sourdough the same day, after having baked bread for 30 years.

특징

Diiva is very stable and has helped many beginners. She always performs unless she's been neglected. Depending on the feeding regime, she may give a very mild but rich flavor profile, but she can also give a more tangy taste with whole grain ingredients. I sometimes see starter that escape from the jars and become foam. That's not Diiva. Her aria is a crispy mousse and I know I can rely on her.

작업방식

My regime is very simple and I mostly use only sifted organic wheat flour. If Diiva is lazy after having been in the fridge, I may give a power kick with a hint of wheat bran or rye flour. Just a little. So if Diiva has been hybernating, she may need whole grain rye in addition to her normal food. E.g. like this.
