This amazing starter traces its roots back to the San Francisco gold rush (really!!) but has been living and mingling with Kensington Markets eclectic denizens for the past several years. It’s been in continuous use since 1850!

This starter makes great bread. See my reviews below!!

Each order includes a packet of dry starter along with detailed instructions for activating and maintaining the starter, as well as links to some great recipes! It’s pretty fool proof and you will be baking amazing loaves in no time.

Order now to take advantage of our current promotion offering free shipping World Wide. All orders will be processed the same or next business day.

I work really hard to keep this incredible starter happy and healthy, and I hope you will love it as much as I do. Happy baking!

Excited to start!

Just got it in yesterday it chilling in my oven. Reviewing now just based on packaging and instructions. They were wonderful! You can tell this starter is well cared for, thank you I am excited to start doing sour dough again with out starting back from scratch! The instructions made me smile!

Super Starter!

I’m not even sure how I found Kensington Sourdough but what a great company with the best starter! Super active and resilient based on me accidentally partially baking it. Whoops! Word of advice…. read Ben’s instructions carefully and follow them! I was able to save part of the starter and it’s still going strong. I highly recommend this wonderful starter.

Overachiever!

Wow this starter means business! She is a serious overachiever, I just revived her last week and this morning she tripled in two hours. The first boule I made with her this weekend was the most springy, spongy, amazing loaf ever. I am thus naming this starter Leslie Doughp, due to this go getter relentlessness. Ha! Thanks so much!

BEST Sourdough STARTER EVER

This starter is wonderful! I was so excited to receive all of the paperwork that came with it. Easy instructions, with lots of tips and clear instructions. Recipes and lots more. I made my first loaf of sourdough bread on the 6th day. I am so happy to have found this site. The starter is very active.

Beauty

I've had my own sourdough for 14 years.my good old Norbert (name of starter) had a freak accident and could not be saved. I needed an emergency starter stat. Kensington sourdough saved the day. I do have to be patient with my new Philip.
But it's been a great experience.
