Description
Available from 1 April 1 to 1 September each year, this fresh Sourdough Starter kit will help you easily make sourdough bread you’re proud of!
Sourdough is a living thing and sending it live through the post during warm weather can be a health hazard for your order, therefore it’s available during the cooler months only. Dry sourdough starter however can travel and store in almost any condition and is super easy to re-hydrate. In just days, you’ll be baking your own mouthwatering sourdough bread.

Sourdough bread that’s homemade and fresh, adds a really special touch to foodie moments with family and friends. I know because, after 15 years, it’s still the only thing I’m ever asked to bring!
Along with the fresh sourdough starter, you’re getting my no-knead bread recipe designed to teach you while you bake your very first loaf.
Get ready for bread better than a bakery!
Sourdough can cost $8 here in Australia but you can make you own for $1-2.5 per loaf , including organic! And it will be bread that you’ll be known for. You can save a lot of money making your own sourdough bread and many find it becomes a calming passion too!
This kit helps everyone easily make sourdough loaves that they’re proud of.
*Sourdough bread can be challenging. Up to 11.8k people visit this site per month to solve issues with flat sourdough. My kits help you nail it first go, without heading down the YouTube rabbit hole! ^If you’re buying a gift and having the bundle posted directly to the recipient, write a gift message in the notes section at checkout and I will include a handwritten gift card for you.
WHY BUY A SOURDOUGH STARTER WHEN YOU CAN MAKE ONE?
Making sourdough starter from scratch can be challenging, taking at least 10 days of constant feeding. Even with effort, results can be inconsistent. Buying a mature sourdough starter saves time and produces better results, ready to bake in just a few days, and you can also choose the characteristics you want.
If you are one of the lucky ones who get a sourdough starter going, the process of getting sourdough bread to rise in the oven is itself a learning curve. My kits are exactly what I needed 15 years ago! They would have saved me 18 months of frustration.
One kit is all the sourdough starter you need for a lifetime of amazing sourdough.
TANGY & CHEWY
‘The taste of France’
This versatile, everyday sourdough starter reminds me of the bread we fell in love with in France. Tangy & Chewy brings out the best in everything from jam to eggs, toast to salami and all kinds of cheese. It also makes amazing pancakes!
TASTE: Buttery & tangy with a caramelised crust
INTERIOR: Mildly chewy with sandwich-sized holes (good for spreads and butter)
ORGANIC: Yes
DIFFICULTY: Easy ~ designed to work
My recipe teaches you as you bake so your very first loaf is successful.
▪️ 15 Minutes total hands-on time for a loaf of no-knead bread without kneading!
▪️ No courses, experience, bread machine, bannetons or other special equipment
▪️ Feed as little as once a month
▪️ Make anything sourdough!
Sourdough bread is one of the healthiest types of bread you can eat. It is good for your digestion, keeps you fuller for longer and is a little lower in carbohydrates than yeasted bread. It freezes well, makes fantastic toast and has a sophisticated flavour.

My love affair with sourdough started with a humble loaf of bread, devoured for breakfast on an overcast morning, in a tiny village, one weekend in France.

Customer Reviews
This is the easiest recipe, starter I’ve ever used & it makes fool proof bread every time!!!! I am totally hooked & am making a loaf every 2nd day for our family. We all love it. Thank you so much Mary-Jane!!
I never thought I’d be able to make my own sourdough. After failing to even get a starter going, I bought the tangy and chewy starter and couldn’t be happier. The instructions that come with it are also a lifesaver and very simple to follow. My husband is very impressed by the loaves I’ve been making too! So happy with this product that I actually bought it for a friend too.
A happy starter that allows me to make the most delicious bread. This is my second purchase and I’m so chuffed.
I’m absolutely hooked! Between loaves of bread, I use the discard to make other delicious treats. Also want to note the care and personal touch in the package sent by MJ also put a smile on my face.
Thank you 😊
I just love this sourdough, it’s been a game changer for my family of 6! I bake a loaf every other day and we all adore it. Super tasty and each loaf is perfect. The starter is just so “alive”! The instructions from Mary-Jane are fool proof and it’s easy to weave the process into our days. My young kids get excited watching it grow and love to help tending to the loaves. We’re saving so much money and I love knowing exactly what goes into our bread. No additives or nasties, and the yummiest bread we’ve eaten!
