Why whole-rye for our starter?
Stoneground whole-rye flour is richer in natural sugars, enzymes, and wild yeast than white wheat flour — which means your starter activates faster, ferments more reliably, and produces bread with deeper, more complex flavour. It also makes for a more forgiving, extensible dough, particularly useful for beginners learning to shape their first loaves.
Do you have a sourdough kit for Coeliacs?
Yes! Try our Gluten-Free Classic Sourdough Starter Kit – Perfect for Coeliacs, FODMAP-friendly diets, and plant-based baking, this kit gives you everything you need to create soft, naturally leavened gluten-free bread at home.
