Depuis 2009

Having moved from Europe to Australia I missed the flavoursome European breads so started making my own bread and then moved on to sourdough bread

Caractéristiques

Very fruity smell, not overly acidic. Allowing for very long fermentation when kept in the fridge

Méthode de travail

This is a stiff starter, that is always in the fridge. I only feed it every 2-4 weeks and use a bit of the stiff starter to make up a 100% hydration starter at room temperature, about 12 hours before I make the dough

The sourdough I make has changed in flavour since I started milling my own flour

I have now moved to Mount Tamborine and received some new starters during my stay in The Netherlands, I can't wait to check them out and see if there are any differences in flavour
