Since 2014

My grandmother is italian and she always talks about "la madre" back in Italy, so I decided Iwanted to try it and since the first time I tasted it Ifell in love with the depth of flavor this starter adds.

Characteristics

This starter has a nice balance between lactic acidity and untcuosity, adds moisture and great holes to the crumb and a beautiful golden crust. its flavor is acidic and packed with umami.
