Our most important ingredient - the dried sourdough starter flakes! This is what makes sourdough, sourdough! The sourdough starter contains the wild yeast that produces bread with distinct sourdough flavours. Simply follow the instructions in the recipe (provided with the Complete Sourdough Starter Kit) or on the recipe section of the site to begin your very own sourdough starter.
No need to wait multiple weeks for a strong starter to develop, using these dried sourdough starter flakes will have your starter strong and ready to make your first loaf of artisan sourdough bread in as little as 2 days!
*Note* - jar not included, this is the dried flakes packet only. We have a jar that can be purchased separately here.

I’ve been trying sourdough on and off for years, but I’ve always ended up buying from a bakery because it hasn’t worked out.
Not this time!
Great option to replace your starter when you forget about it and you need to start again
Works great
I am new to baking bread and wanted to try sourdough, the equipment and instructions are so easy to use and I produced the most perfect first loaf of sourdough! Super happy.
I got the sourdough starter flakes and followed all the instructions to the letter - it didn't revive unfortunately. Better off asking a local neighbour group if anyone has some starter to spare.
Hi Meryn,
So sorry to hear. We absolutely want you to be successful - please send us an email at contact@youkneadsourdough.com.au and we'll gladly replace your starter and give you some extra tips and tricks to ensure success.
