Amazing results! My bread doesn't last 2 days. Also tried my cheese bagels and they turned out so puffy compared to my own starter. Love from Newfoundland

Sourdough purchase

Definitely worth buying.

I tried for a month to get sourdough starter to become active. Tried several different techniques… nothing worked. The Kensingtons starter was active within 3 days but I did folllow the directions for the full 7 days. Excellent loaf of sourdough bread on day 9! You can’t go wrong with this starter.

so easy!

this starter makes getting 'started' on your sourdough journey so easy. baking good sourdough is hard enough, i highly highly recommend just getting this dehydrated starter and activating it to set yourself on the right foot. i made two delicious loaves this week; delightful activation, responsive and forgiving, it's wonderful. if your'e thinking you can ****, i believe in you, but you can make it a lot easier on yourself by just getting this one!
