Top starter

The Sourdough starter crossed the ocean in just a few days (big smile when I saw the Canadian stamp) and was accompanied by very clear instructions. It was ready to bake with in just 4,5 days. The (hi)story behind it makes it even more beautiful and powerful. Love it <3 !

Great starter, easy to tend to.

Starter worked well from the start and was easy to keep fed and active. Used it and the discard for several recipes and all came out great.

Good starter

I’m liking the starter. Sourdough baking is new to me and I like the fact that there are clear instructions and videos to help included with the starter.
