I have baked bread for years as a professional chef but now as an enthusiast I wanted to get into more artisan baking. Also some fun during Covid 19.

Caratteristiche

Slightly sour, good chew in the mouth , yields a nice crumb. A wet sticky goo of a starter. Not liquid but not solid. Very much like children’s play slime. Produces good bubbles and doubles after feeding consistently after approx 6 hours. Doesn’t taste too heavy of rye, has a nice background flavour with nutty and earthy notes. Soft sour smell. Takes the salt from the air well.

A new starter born on 22/May/2020 during the Corona Covid 19 pandemic. I live on a boat on a saltwater river by the famous Southend-on-Sea coast, so the air is very particular. I am surrounded by fields growing wild buckwheat.
