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.

Customer Reviews
After having no luck previously on my sourdough journey, i purchased the dried starter flakes, white bread flour and the sourdough master class. My family and i are now enjoying the best sourdough ever. Super impressed.
Loved the starter, it didn’t take long to get started . I would recommend you knead sourdough to anyone who has never tried to bake bread before. Also love the silicone baking mat.
Very exciting to have received my starter pack. Fun times to come 😁
Using the bow knife to slice my bread has been an absolute game changer! It allows me to cut thin and straight slices so that I can in fact enjoy my bread AND control my portion size. More often than not I lament over toppings for breakfast. Now I can have one avocado and one peanut butter and banana slice in guilt free heaven! I also slice whatever I have left of the loaf after day two and freeze, then use from there. Great for health, tastebuds and economy. Hands down my best purchase in years!
Bought this for my hubby for his bday. The kit is phenomenal alongside the great tutorials. We have been enjoying the bread now for weeks! No looking back!
