The perfect start to your sourdough journey. Complete with our very active organic rye starter, combined with a beautifully crafted jar to house your new “Sourdough Mate" by Kinto Japan, jar stirring spatula & enough organic rye flour to help activate your starter!

Why do we use Australian organic stoneground whole-rye flour for our starters?

The reason is simple. We love the taste, it’s smells amazing (like fruit), ferments faster & can perk up any sourdough starter’s activity (can be mixed together with ordinary bread flour).

That’s why we guarantee our starter flakes will be active or we’ll replace it for free.

Why use a Dutch oven?

Learning how to bake bread with enough steam in a domestic oven is the first challenge for a home baker when embarking on their bread journey. A Dutch oven, which is a pot made entirely of cast iron allows for enough heat & steam to replicate a commercial bread oven environment & so is the preferred method when making bread at home.

Our bread specific Dutch ovens are perfect for baking bread & gives perfect results every time. 

How it works

During the initial stages of baking, steam is released inside the chamber of a Dutch oven (sealed by a lid), this keeps the dough moist allowing the bread to develop a crispy, shiny crust and attain maximal volume.
