Our Sourdough starter is a family heirloom with, according to family legend, origins back to the Yukon Territory of Canada around 1897. The starter was given to me as a going away gift from my father as I went to college. Though it started with family recipes of bread, biscuits, and pancakes, I began a hobby of making pizza with it, which 10 years later lead to the opening of our restaurant

Characteristics

We use our sourdough every day in our restaurant to leaven two types of pizza dough and focaccia. The result is a slightly sour, deep flavor, and a beautifully open crumb on our pizzas and slightly tighter on our focaccia. Our pizza bubbles and browns beautifully in both our wood-fire and electric deck ovens.
