    The Story of Jovial and Einkorn

    When Carla and Rodolfo had the idea of growing einkorn wheat, there was very little of this grain being cultivated worldwide, so they had to coordinate the farming themselves. Their search led us to this farm, where they had been growing ancient varieties of oats, barley, emmer, lentils, and chick peas for over thirty years. They had never planted einkorn before, and now, only a few years later, we are working together on this project in a perfect partnership committed not only to what we are growing, but how we grow it.

      DIdn't want to start my starter from scratch so was thrilled to find this product. I'm new to sourdough, but this seems easy so far. Just made my first loaf, and while it's kinda ugly looking (I still need practice in esthetics) it tastes great.

      Even though I followed instructions carefully and now reading others glowing reviews, I realize my starter never truly became active in the way it should of.

      I had tried several times to make my own starter using the techniques in two different blogs, but it kept getting moldy. As soon as this came back in stock, I ordered it and followed the instructions to feed it. Within 8 daily feedings I was able to start baking sourdough bread, and now I have made two levains and one overnight no-knead loaf from the cookbook. They turned out great. It was worth it to me to be able to start baking after I spent a month feeding a homemade starter that went moldy. I also like that their feeding technique uses less flour, although it does produce discard that is harder to just throw into a discard recipe because it is drier. Overall I am very pleased.

      LOVE!! I have been using Jovial Einkorn Flour for a while now, but I have always been TERRIFIED of trying sourdough. I also never wanted to take the chance of wasting my Einkorn flour if it didn't work. Let me tell you, this made it so simple!!! I have been baking sourdough bread, cookies and English muffins so far! They give you the step by step instructions and it really is so, so simple!! If you have been thinking about trying this, get it as soon as it comes in stock (hopefully it comes back)!

      Starter was great Have refreshed twice and now have a levain in the works for a einkorn focaccia genovese. I love the mixing tool as it helps the wet dough mix easier. All this is in your good book.
