Since 2003

I was looking to replicate the moderate sourness of Northern California sourdoughs

Characteristics

semi-sour with sour undertones. Best with a long refrigerated retard of 2-3 dsys for flavor development. This is my main starter

A crispy crust, however not extremely thick. Tender firm crumb and wonderfully tangy.
