About

Welcome to my Micro bakery home of the 225 yr old sourdough starter!

📍LOCATED IN MENIFEE

I bake all things sourdough with my precious, Appalachian 225 yr old sourdough starter that makes delicious sourdough loaves and baked goods! 🍞

This is a sourdough starter culture originating from a bakery in France that has been family-owned and operated on the outskirts of Paris since the late 1700s or early 1800s. I have had it for years and have kept it up with continual feedings at least once a week. It has been gifted down to me now.

It can achieve nearly a three times rise in 4-8 hours when I feed it daily and leave it on the kitchen counter (room temperature 75F).

It has amazing virility and light flavor. I've tried a few different sourdoughs, but this one can convert even the most staunch sourdough hater (me prior to trying this one because I do not enjoy the super sour sourdough bread). Of course, you can make it sourer if you'd like by not discarding half when you feed. Usually, I can get it to pass the float test for baking after one feed, maximum 2 from the fridge. I really love sourdough bread and I figured I would share so others can find joy and peace in a nice hobby. Plus, I've read that if you make a starter from scratch it can take years to get established.

Many people claim that they can taste regional differences in sourdough cultures, with one or two bites distinguishing between a San Francisco culture and an Alaskan culture. I definitely have not yet achieved that level, but am excited to know what you think if you are one of those people!

My favorite part about sourdough starters is how they are handed down through generations and shared freely, and so feel free to give to friends and family to pass on that tradition!
