Kensington Sourdough Starter is a life changer! My breads are now, simply amazing!
You know those videos on social media where someone is lifting the lid of their starter jar and the starter has bubbled over a little, is so bubbly, the jar is full, and the starter strings from the lid to the jar? THAT’S WHAT YOU GET WITH THIS STARTER! It’s the starter to make all your friends jealous! (Or at least your sourdough friends.) Amazing results! So so good! It’s the best sourdough I’ve ever had!
I’ve never made sourdough bread and thought I would give it a go.
I received my starter very quickly after ordering and the instructions were so easy to follow.
I’ve only made a few loaves so far but I am over the top thrilled with the results.
The bread baked beautifully and the flavour and texture is outstanding.
My dough is rising now on the counter and I can’t wait to bake more bread.
Thank you Kensington Market.
Après 4 jours seulement, le levain a triplé de volume en moins de 6 heures ! L'odeur est délicieuse, plein de vie. Les instructions sont claires et faciles à suivre. Je recommande fortement
I am very pleased with my first effort in the world of sourdough, there are a few tweaks I would make next time, but for first effort pretty good.
