Cowboy
Depuis 1921
My ex husband wanted to try it. He was obsessed with bread making. This starter began in 1890 so we were determined to not kill it. So, it;s actually 136 y.o. now in 2020. We had made starer ourselves and were not quite successful.
Caractéristiques
Cowboy is vigorous & tastier when used more. The first piece tastes like it has parmesan in it (it does not). Originating in WY, this starter is 136 y.o. It was given to a traveling family in 1979 by a cowboy; a wool buyer traveling between WY and MT. At that time, it was 95 y.o. It spent all those years traveling in saddle bags. I have shared and this starter is now in CO, VA, WA, & Norway.
