Depuis 2014

My sourdough was born in May 2016. I have a nephew who has diabetes and he wants to be a baker. I read an article about the lower glycemic index with sourdough, and thought that if I learned enough, maybe I could teach him.

Caractéristiques

Kevin is extremely healthy! He has a smooth tang that truly shows up in the finished bread.
