Simon
Since 2016
Curiosity, love for good bread since my grandmother has her roots from Germany, where they do a better job in bread than The Netherlands. A man called Simon gave me the magical moisture to get myself started. History is written.
Characteristics
The rye starter is a ticking bomb so fast it matures. Bubbles, bubbles and more of those beautiful gasses. The color is grey/brown.
