    Description

    Review: Powerful starter. After months of failures I baked my first perfect open crumb loaf. I call her "Helen" (after the volcano)
    Carolina Jane’s Extra Tangy Sourdough Starter
    Most top name sellers who sale a dried sourdough starter
    will only give you 1 heaping teaspoon or ½ oz. Not so with
    Carolina Jane.
    Carolina Jane’s Extra Tangy Sourdough Starter
    The Dried Extra Tangy Sourdough Starter is 20 years old, from the mountains of Idaho. The 1 oz. dried starter is packed in food grade material (5.5mil. thickness) and heat sealed in a premium tight resealable zip lock. Keeps all water and moisture out and any odors in, when sealed. This starter is a very active, aggressive starter. Complete instructions are on the back of the container.

    Will a Sourdough starter from one locale change to yeasts of current locale over time?
    ·
    Short answer:
    YES
    , a sourdough culture can change when moved to a different location. But the amount and types of shifts are unpredictable, and other factors (feeding schedule and temperature, nutrients from flour, etc.) Also, environmental conditions can include microorganisms in the air. Example: San Francisco has salt in the air from the bay... hard to have those same conditions in the mountains of Idaho or in a dry environment such as Arizona.
    Myth: Really Old (100 to 900 years old) starter tastes better?
    When you first create a sourdough starter (from scratch), it will have a mild flavor. With time, the flavor increases. This leads people to brag about their decades - old starters, as if a 100 year old starter has a better flavor than a 10 year old starter. While flavor does increase in the beginning, eventually it plateaus. So while a 100 year old starter is still an exciting thing, it doesn't necessarily make better bread than a younger starter. (
