Why use stoneground whole-rye for our starters?

The reason is simple — It has a beautiful, fruity aroma and makes bread taste delicious! There are so many positives and some of them are:

🌻 Ferments & Activates Faster: Stoneground whole-rye flour contains more natural sugars and enzymes than wheat, helping your starter become active and bubbly more quickly.

🌻 Builds Strong Wild Yeast Activity: Encourages a robust and reliable fermentation, giving your bread better rise and texture.

🌻 Adds Depth of Flavour: Whole rye imparts a rich, slightly tangy, earthy flavour that enhances both rye and wheat breads.

🌻 Improves Dough Handling: Rye starters create a more extensible and forgiving dough, especially useful for artisan loaves.

🌻 Supports Nutritional Value: Rye contains more minerals and fibre than white wheat flour, adding a healthful boost to your sourdough.
