I am a chef that got passionate about bread baking when attending a gastronomy event in my country Venezuela. There I was introduced to sourdough and since then I have been practicing and got me into working with it.

특징

My sourdough starters it's very strong, it has lasted a starving period of two month in the fridge, and was even frozen for 3 months. When reviving it came to life in one fed. It has a nice tangy taste but not to acidic and smells like fermented fruits. It likes to eat two times a day to maintain its flavor and smell profile. It's powerful when making a levain I can use it in 4 hours.

My sourdough starter is a 100% hidration one. It has a fermented fruity smells that goes from apples to pears and even grapes sometimes. The first ingredient that makes its special for me is Dark Rye flour since it really helps a lot in balancing the Flo our and smell I love of my sourdough.

My second ingredient is Whole wheat flour, this two flour combine to me are perfect for the flavor profile I want when making bread. And are really good in providing a lot of food for the organism and bacteria in my starter.
