She bakes for years.

A jar of living, bubbling wild yeast, the same starter we use for every single loaf. She comes with feeding instructions, naming suggestions, and tough love when needed.

Keep her on the counter, feed her flour and water, and she will bake for you for years. Yes, she. They all become she.

A jar of bubbling sourdough starter

Four honest ingredients.

If you can't pronounce what's in your bread, you shouldn't eat it. Here is the whole list, nothing hidden, nothing you need a chemistry degree to read.

Stone-ground rye flour (New York State)WaterRye berriesWild rye sourdough starterSea salt

Just flour, water and time, kept alive on our counter and fed every day since 2023. No powders, no commercial yeast. A living thing, not a packet.

More than a jar.

This is not a sachet of dried yeast. It is a living culture with a lineage, and everything you need to keep her thriving and baking.

01A jar of active starter

Alive and active

Fed every day since 2023, she arrives bubbling and ready. A mature culture, not a fragile experiment you have to nurse to life.

02Starter being fed

Feeding instructions

A clear, simple guide comes in the box: how much to feed her, how often, and how to read when she is hungry or happy.

03A loaf made from the starter

Bakes everything

The same culture behind our rye, our wheat, our focaccia. With her on your counter, every one of those loaves is yours to bake.

04Starter on the counter

Lasts for years

Treat her well and she outlives the jar, the season, the trend. A good starter is passed down, not thrown away.

Real bread, every kind of day.

From your first wobbly loaf to the one you are proud of, this is where she takes you.

where to start

What to bake first.

Once she is bubbling, the whole table opens up. Here is where we would begin.

Not all starters are worth keeping.

A packet of dried yeast is not a starter. Here is the difference.

A packet of yeast

  • Dried, dormant, single-use
  • One flat note, no character
  • No lineage, no living culture
  • Makes bread rise, not bread with flavour
  • You buy it again every time
  • Gone the moment the loaf is baked

Our Lagom Starter

  • Alive, wild, fed daily since 2023
  • Deep flavour only a real culture builds
  • A lineage behind every loaf we sell
  • Bakes bread, focaccia, pancakes, cookies
  • Feed her and she lasts for years
  • A companion, not a consumable

People can't stop talking.
