A Living Legacy of Cape Town Tradition
Bridging Tradition and Innovation: Heirloom Sourdough Starter History Meets Low-Carb Bread Craftsmanship
Since the 1990s, this remarkable sourdough culture has thrived in the unique climate of Cape Town’s Western Cape region, particularly in the suburb of Kenilworth. The local environment, rich in distinctive microorganisms, has created ideal conditions for this culture to flourish, producing bread with a nutty flavour and a range of sourness levels from medium to very strong. Known for its exceptional ability to leaven whole wheat flour better than white flour, it has become a cherished part of South Africa’s baking heritage. Now, this authentic culture has been carefully adapted into a low-carb version, allowing bakers to enjoy its unique character while aligning with modern dietary preferences.
