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!

Wonderful Starter!

Easy instructions and a great tasting starter. We were ready to go in 6 days and we haven't looked back. Very strong starter, I get full rise in just 4 or 5 hours.

First time sour dough-er here. So far have made 2 loaves. Loaf 1 I made for the birds…Unintentionally through no fault of the starter itself, more so the chef….there is a bit of an art to this whole bread making thing as well as patience. Figured it out on loaf 2. It was amazing! I’m sure the more loaves I make the better I will become. But we are off to a great start!

Great starter. Easy to activate, and already making fantastic bread.

I followed the excellent directions that came with this wonderful starter, and a week later, was making amazing bread. I am now actively feeding and discarding, with the help of a Brod & Taylor Sourdough Home (not necessary, but OH so helpful).

This is far from my first starter, but it has been the easiest to get going, and so far, it's giving my breads an authentic sourdough flavor, and once you get it going, it is VERY active and bubbly, and provides plenty of leaven to all my sourdough baking.

Highly recommended!
