🖤 BLACK DEATH SOURDOUGH STARTER 🖤

Fermentation this dark shouldn’t be legal…

Unleash the dark arts of baking with Black Death, a ferociously sour, battle-hardened sourdough starter. This is not your grandma’s starter—it’s a gothic relic of wild yeast madness, built for bold crusts, deep tang, and bread with attitude. 

To achieve the signature darkness that Black Death is known for—just like the loaves shown in the photos above—use rye or pumpernickel-based bread recipes for best results. This starter is highly versatile and works well with any type of flour, making it easy to incorporate into your favorite traditional sourdough recipes.

Included with each order is:

- A gently DEHYDRATED "Black Death" ORGANIC Sourdough starter

- A step-by-step guide to activating your ORGANIC starter, including recipes and everything you need to know on your journey to making dough, bread, and other items

- Full access to messages with me for any questions or help along the way

Please note: The photos of bubbly, active starter are for reference only—to show what your starter will look like once fully activated.

Your order will arrive as a gently dehydrated starter, as shown in the listing photos.

If you're interested in purchasing a fresh, wet starter in a glass jar, feel free to message me. I haven’t listed any yet, but I’d be happy to offer it upon request.

Pristine hydro-filtered water was used to make this starter, ensuring maximum yeast microbes and strong vigor. Every step was taken to preserve the quality and integrity of this starter.
