At Calico and Twine, we believe that having a breadbox and filling it with nutritious bread is a woman’s birthright. Sourdough does not have to be complicated, in fact it’s quite simple once you have a strong starter. Sharing sourdough starter was once a fun little tradition amongst the women folk, often called “friendship bread”.
We know how hard it can be to get that starter of yours going. We want to equip you to make nutrient-dense homemade bread without the struggle!
This sourdough starter has been cultivated right here on the Calico and Twine Homestead. It is over 6 years old, mature and active. This starter is only fed with unbleached, unbromated, certified organic flours and water purified by Boroux (Berkey) Filters. We have carefully dried the starter for ease of shipping and so you can choose to rehydrate it in your own time. The rehydration process is simple and you will be guided step by step with printed instructions.
Pair with our Sourdough Simplified Printed Recipe Book to create the ultimate bread-making starter pack!
*Ingredients: Organic rye, organic hard white wheat, organic hard red wheat, organic malted barley, purified water. CONTAINS WHEAT AND OTHER POSSIBLE ALLERGENS.
What you receive: 10 grams of dried sourdough starter chips, the perfect amount needed to rehydrate an active starter. You will also receive a beautifully printed instruction card taking you through the rehydration process step by step.
