Since 2011

I was given a baking book as a gift and I became completely obsessed with baking sourdough at home.

Characteristics

Very mild but highly active starter when kept at 24-26ºC. Refreshed frequently to prevent excessive acidity build up and promote a more mild flavor. My starter has been used in an incredible amount of baked goods in my kitchen, including waffles, pancakes, cakes and even pie crust.
