Dried Sourdough Starter

With this dried sourdough starter you bake sourdough bread without first spending 7 to 14 days building a starter yourself. It’s an active sourdough culture (natural yeasts and lactic acid bacteria) that has been dried: as soon as you feed it with water and flour, it comes back to life. Most people bake their first loaf with it within 3 to 7 days.

What’s included?

• 1x Fornello dried sourdough starter (±15 grams, enough to build up)
• Step-by-step instructions by email, with a how-to video

How it works

Mix the starter with lukewarm water and flour into a paste and leave it at room temperature. Then feed it daily with water and flour. It’s ready to bake with once it clearly rises within 4 to 8 hours after a feeding and is full of bubbles, with a fresh, slightly sour smell.
