This wild sourdough starter was cultivated in Anchorage, Alaska made with 100% organic ingredients and was started with glacier water. It is said to be 100 years old and is organic all natural. It is fed Bob's Red Mill Organic Unbleached All-Purpose Flour. 125 metų senumo Aliaskos raugo užkandis Šis laukinių raugo duonos raugas buvo užaugintas Ankoridže, Aliaskoje, pagamintas iš 100 % ekologiškų ingredientų ir pradėtas naudoti ledyniniame vandenyje. Nors tikslios šios kultūros istorijos nežinome, Aliaskoje ji turi gražią raugo duonos istoriją: Raugo duonos palikimas Aliaskoje: kultūrinis ir kulinarinis tyrinėjimas Raugo kepimo praktika Aliaskoje siekia XIX a. pabaigą, kai aukso karštinės metu į regioną plūdo aukso ieškotojai ir kalnakasiai. Atšiaurios Aliaskos žiemos kėlė unikalių iššūkių, todėl šiems pasienio gyventojams buvo būtina kurti tvarius maisto šaltinius. Tradiciškai šie ankstyvieji gyventojai laikė raugo raugą – miltų ir vandens mišinį, fermentuotą natūraliai augančiomis laukinėmis mielėmis ir pieno rūgšties bakterijomis, – kaip patikimą duonos kildinimo medžiagą. Pastebima, kad žmonės nešiodavo raugo maišelius ant kaklo, kad apsaugotų jį nuo stipraus šalčio, o kai kuriose legendose netgi pasakojama, kad kalnakasiai miegodavo su savo raugais, kad šie nesušaltų. Šis giliai įsišaknijęs ryšys tarp Aliaskos gyventojų ir raugo duonos atsispindi šiuolaikiniame termino „raugas“ vartojime apibūdinant patyrusius valstijos gyventojus. Tai reiškia kulinarinę asociaciją ir dėkingumą už išradingumą bei atsparumą, būdingą ankstyvųjų žvalgytojų, kalnakasių ir gaudytojų gyvenimui. Tokie asmenys įkūnijo tyrinėjimo ir išlikimo dvasią, kuri šiandien rezonuoja Aliaskos kultūroje. Aliaskos raugo užkandis: sudėtis ir reikšmė Šis laukinių raugo duonos raugas, auginamas Ankoridže, pasižymi ne tik istorine reikšme, bet ir unikalia sudėtimi. Pagamintas iš 100 % ekologiškų ingredientų ir ledyninio vandens, šis raugas yra gamtos išteklių ir tradicinių praktikų derinio pavyzdys. Ledyninis vanduo, žinomas dėl savo grynumo ir mineralų kiekio, prisideda prie unikalaus raugo skonio profilio ir stiprių fermentacijos savybių. Tokio raugo auginimas atspindi platesnę šiuolaikinės kepybos tendenciją, kurioje pirmenybė teikiama ekologiškiems ir tvariems ingredientams, leidžiant kepėjams kurti produktus, kurie gerbia tradicijas ir aplinkosaugą. Aliaskos raugo duonos raugai dažnai būna šimtų metų senumo, perduodami iš kartos į kartą, įkūnydami gyvą istoriją, jungiančią dabartinius kepėjus su jų protėviais. Ši linija pabrėžia idėją, kad raugas yra daugiau nei tik rauginimo medžiaga; tai kultūros artefaktas, apimantis ankstesnių laikų istorijas ir patirtį. Džiovintos tokios raugo duonos rūšys gali išlikti ramybės būsenoje metų metus, dar labiau atspindėdamos šios kulinarinės tradicijos tvarumą. Šiuolaikinėje Aliaskoje raugo duona tebėra pagrindinis produktas, pasižymintis riešutų ir švelniu skoniu, patraukliu tiek gyventojams, tiek lankytojams. Kepėjai perėmė turtingą raugo paveldą, naudodami iš vyresnių kartų surinktus neveikiančius raugų mišinius, kad gamintų amatininkų duoną, atspindinčią regiono skonius. Raugo duonos kepimo procesas reikalauja įgūdžių ir gilaus ryšio su žeme bei jos istorija, nes fermentacijos procesas yra neatsiejamai susijęs su vietos aplinka. Be to, raugo naudojimo praktika išsiplėtė už tradicinės duonos kepimo ribų. Aliaskos kepėjai eksperimentuoja su raugu įvairiuose receptuose, įskaitant blynus, vaflius ir net pyragaičius, taip parodydami šio senovinio rauginimo metodo universalumą. Susidomėjimo raugo kepimu atgimimas COVID-19 pandemijos metu dar labiau išryškino šios praktikos kultūrinę reikšmę, nes daugelis žmonių kepdami ieškojo paguodos ir ryšio. Aliaskos raugo duonos istorija liudija apie žmonių išradingumą, atsparumą ir tradicijų galią. Nuo pirmųjų pasienio gyventojų, kurie išgyveno tik iš savo raugo, iki šiuolaikinių kepėjų, kurie gerbia šį palikimą, raugas vaidina esminį vaidmenį regiono kultūriniame ir kulinariniame identitete. Kruopščiai auginamas ir istorijoje persmelktas Aliaskos raugo duonos patiekalas primena apie ilgalaikius ryšius tarp maisto, bendruomenės ir aplinkos. Šiai turtingai tradicijai vystantis, ji primena mums, kaip svarbu išsaugoti savo kulinarinį paveldą, kartu priimant dabartines inovacijas. Pasaulyje, kuris vis labiau atitrūksta nuo savo šaknų, Aliaskos raugas siūlo gardų ryšį su praeitimi, užtikrindamas, kad „raugo duonos“ palikimas gyvuotų toliau.

The Legacy and Art of Russian Sourdough Rye Bread The Unique Heritage of The Lazy Antelope’s Russian Sourdough Starter The Lazy Antelope's Russian sourdough starter stands out as a distinctive blend of sweet and savory flavors, nurtured with The Lazy Antelope Milling Co. Organic Premium Dark Rye flour. This starter traces its roots back to the 1960s, having been carefully passed down from one generation to the next. Over the years, it has developed a nuanced and complex flavor profile, shaped both by the surrounding environment and the dedicated craftsmanship of bakers. Every batch of bread made with this starter is imbued with a sense of nostalgia, seamlessly merging rustic baking traditions with contemporary artisanal methods. The Historical Significance of Sourdough Rye Bread in Russia Sourdough rye bread holds a deeply rooted place in Russian culture, with traditions reaching back hundreds of years. It is particularly linked to Borodinsky bread, a celebrated bread made from dark rye flour. Folklore connects the origins of Borodinsky bread to the 1812 Battle of Borodino, with some stories attributing its creation to nuns at a battlefield monastery or a mourning widow. However, the widely recognized recipe for Borodinsky bread first appeared in the 20th century. Despite this, the foundational use of sourdough as both a dietary mainstay and a natural leavening method has been a part of Russian life for centuries before the modern recipe became widespread. Modern Revivals: Honoring Tradition Through Innovation In the present day, the enduring legacy of sourdough rye bread is being revitalized by contemporary bakeries. By paying homage to traditional methods while also exploring new techniques, today’s bakers achieve a harmonious blend of authenticity and innovation. The signature sourdough starter not only connects each loaf to its rich heritage but also encourages a new generation to value the artistry and history embedded in every slice. As Russian rye bread traditions merge with local flavors and modern baking expertise, the resulting bread becomes more than nourishment—serving as a flavorful tribute to history, community, and the enduring art of baking.

Cripple Creek Colorado 1893 Cripple Creek Colorado 1893 Cripple Creek Colorado 1893 Cripple Creek Colorado 1893 The Lazy Antelopes 1893 sourdough starter, originating from Cripple Creek, Colorado, features a unique blend of heritage and quality. It is made using organic, non-GMO stone-ground wheat milled in Iowa by the Lazy Antelope Milling Company, ensuring the retention of its nutritional value and flavor. The meticulous care taken in sourcing and milling the grain contributes to the distinctive taste of this sourdough starter. Cripple Creek has a rich history, particularly noted for its significance during the Cripple Creek Gold Rush. This exciting period, which lasted from the late 1800s to the early 1900s, transformed the area into a bustling hub of mining activity. Many prospectors flocked to Cripple Creek in search of fortune, leading to rapid population growth and the establishment of various businesses, including bakeries that benefited from the abundance of local grains. The spirit of that era lives on today in the artisanal practices embraced by The Lazy Antelope, reflecting a strong commitment to quality and tradition. The combination of these historical and culinary elements makes the sourdough starter a noteworthy part of Cripple Creek's heritage. This sourdough starter has a significant historical origin, dating back to the Cripple Creek gold mining community in Colorado, where it was first developed around 1893 during the period of the Gold Rush. Gold Rush Staple: In the bustling late 19th century, Cripple Creek was a vibrant hub of dreams and ambition, filled with the sounds of pickaxes striking rock and the hopeful chatter of miners. Among the essential provisions that sustained these rugged individuals was sourdough bread, celebrated for its robust flavor and nourishing qualities. The sourdough starter, an extraordinary symbiotic culture of wild yeast and bacteria, thrived in its natural environment, providing a reliable leavening agent for those isolated in remote mining camps. This bread became more than just a meal; it symbolized nourishment and survival in a landscape where commercial yeast was either difficult to obtain or too susceptible to the elements. The bond miners formed with their sourdough starters was uniquely personal. Many carried their precious cultures in handmade pouches, worn around their necks or secured to their belts as they navigated the rugged terrain. To ensure the viability of their starters in the biting cold, some miners would even cradle their starters overnight, bringing them into their sleeping quarters like cherished companions. This deep devotion and clever resourcefulness earned them the affectionate nickname "sourdoughs," a testament to their culinary ingenuity and resilience in the pursuit of fortune. A Living Link to the Past: This treasured sourdough starter has a lineage that has been meticulously cared for and shared among generations of bakers, preserving its unique blend of flavors and characteristics for over 125 years. While scientifically tracing a lineage can be complex and elusive, the rich stories and traditions interwoven into the very essence of this starter create a powerful connection to history, allowing contemporary bakers to partake in an experience that transcends time and place.

You must make sure that the starter is bubbly and active before making bread with it. If the starter is flat (in the “discard” stage), the yeast is not active and will not rise well in bread. How to get your starter to peak activity, and how to know when it’s ready: Raugo tešlos paruošimas duonos kepimui Prieš kepdami duoną, įsitikinkite, kad raugas burbuliuoja ir yra aktyvus. Jei raugas yra plokščias („išmesta“ stadijoje), mielės nėra aktyvios ir blogai iškils duonoje. Kaip pasiekti maksimalų raugo aktyvumą ir sužinoti, kada jis paruoštas: Prieš kepdami duoną, raugą maitinkite kelias dienas kas 24 valandas. Visada duokite bent tiek pašaro, kiek turite po ranka. Tai reiškia, kad jei turite 60 gramų raugo, įmaišykite 60 gramų vandens ir 60 gramų nebalintų miltų vienam šėrimui. (Nepamirškite išmesti raugo pertekliaus. Jei nenorite jo išmesti, visada galite pasigaminti puikų išmetimo receptą.) Patikrinkite savo raugą praėjus 4–6 valandoms po maitinimo. Maniškis aktyviausias būna maždaug po 4 valandų. Įsitikinkite, kad matote daug burbuliukų.

When it arrives put it in a jar with a lid The feeding ratio is 1:1:1 (sourdough starter: flour: water) 92 grams of unbleached flour or the flour to meet your needs such as unbleached organic or gluten free. Poland is fed dark Rye, Germany is fed Rye/Pumpernickel flour, San Francisco is fed whole grain wheat, etc. 92 grams warm water and 92 grams starter. Let it sit on the counter for a few hours until it is rising and falling, Pradedančiųjų priežiūra ir maitinimas Raugo priežiūra ir instrukcijos · Gavę raugo tešlą, sudėkite ją į 16 uncijų (apie 470 ml) talpos stiklainį su žiediniu dangteliu. Užsukite dangtelį laisvai, kad išeitų dujos. Atminkite, kad raugams nereikia oro ir jų negalima uždengti audiniu ar popieriumi, nes šios medžiagos gali skatinti pelėsio ir kenksmingų bakterijų augimą. · Raugo šėrimo santykis yra 1:1:1 (raugo raugas: miltai: vanduo). Naudokite 60 gramų nebalintų miltų (rekomenduojamų miltų jūsų raugui), 60 gramų šilto vandens ir 60 gramų raugo. Leiskite mišiniui pastovėti ant stalo kelias valandas, maitindami jį kas 24 valandas, kol jis tolygiai pakils ir sumažės. Svarbu atkreipti dėmesį, kad mišinio dvigubėjimas nėra griežtas reikalavimas; kartais jis gali nepadvigubėti, o kartais gali pakilti daugiau nei dvigubai. · Kai jūsų raugas sustiprės, galite jį laikyti šaldytuve ir maitinti kas savaitę, nebent dažnai kepate ir norite laikyti jį ant stalo, maitindami kasdien. Norėdami užauginti raugą, neišmeskite jo maitindami; palaikykite 1:1:1 santykį lygiomis dalimis (pasverkite tai, ką turite, ir maitinkite lygiomis dalimis miltų ir vandens). Taip užtikrinsite, kad turėsite pakankamai savo receptui, o 60 gramų raugo išlaikymui. NENAUDOKITE DISTILITUOTO VANDENS · Svarbu nenaudoti distiliuoto vandens, kai raugo duoną maitinitės. Distiliuotame vandenyje nėra mineralų ir mikroorganizmų, esančių vandenyje iš čiaupo, šaltinio ir išgrynintame vandenyje, kurie yra būtini laukinėms mielėms ir bakterijoms, reikalingoms sėkmingam raugui, auginti. Vietoj to rinkitės filtruotą arba vandenį iš čiaupo, kuriame nėra chloro ir kitų agresyvių priedų. Tai padės sukurti labiau subalansuotą fermentacijos aplinką, galiausiai pagerins jūsų raugo duonos skonį ir kildinimą. · Kitas svarbus aspektas yra aplinka, kurioje laikomas raugo augalas. Šilta vieta, pavyzdžiui, saulėta palangė ar šalia radiatoriaus, skatina optimalų mielių ir bakterijų aktyvumą. Taip pat reikėtų atkreipti dėmesį į vandens temperatūrą; idealiu atveju maitinimui naudojamas vanduo turėtų būti nuo 24 °C iki 28 °C (75 °F ir 82 °F), kad būtų skatinamas augimas, nes per karštas vanduo gali sunaikinti mieles. · Raugo raugo maitinimas (pastaba: visus naujus rauginius reikia laikyti atokiau ir maitinti kasdien, kol jie tampa aktyvūs ir atgauti po transportavimo proceso). · Šėrimo dažnumas labai priklauso nuo to, ar raugas laikomas kambario temperatūroje, ar šaldytuve. Kambario temperatūroje laikomą raugą reikia maitinti kasdien, o šaldytuve laikomą – kas savaitę. Norint maitinti gyvą raugą, išmeskite visą, išskyrus 60 gramų, kol raugas bus aktyvus ir atsigaus po transportavimo proceso.

FEED IMMEDIATELY If you have any questions, please contact me at thelazyantelope@gmail.com ; I am more than happy to help. Important Notes: If you ordered a Gluten-Free starter (PLEASE MAKE SURE YOUR STARTER HAS A GLUTEN-FREE STICKER ON IT; IF IT DOESN'T, PLEASE LET US KNOW, AND WE WILL SHIP YOU A NEW STARTER). When your starter arrives: Cut the pouch open under the zipper. 1. Remove 60 grams of starter from the bag and place it in a non-reactive metal bowl. 2. Add 60 grams of warm water, ideally between 78 and 85°F (25-29°C). 3. Add 60 grams of flour. 4. Mix well 5. Transfer the mixture to a 16 oz jar with a ring lid, making sure to leave the lid on but not tightened all the way down. Place the jar on the counter and continue feeding daily until you are ready to bake or refrigerate. (This is very important for the recovery process). 6. Repeat this process every 24 hours for a few days. It could take several feedings to get the starter back to its active state after shipping; but they usually bounce back after the first feeding. If you have less than 60 g. weigh what you have and feed equal amounts of flour and water (1.1.1) Feeding Your Sourdough Starter 1. Daily Feeding: Feed your starter daily until it has fully recovered from the shipping process. Once the starter is active, you can use it for baking or refrigerate it for future use. If refrigerated, feed it once a week (be sure to feed it before placing it in the refrigerator). 2. Daily Feeding Process: To feed a live starter, combine 60 grams of starter (Discard remaining starter), 60 grams of the appropriate flour for your starter, and 60 grams of warm water in a non-reactive mixing bowl. Mix well. Discard any remaining starter. Rinse the original jar with water, then return the mixture to the jar. If your starter is on the counter, leave the lid loose; if it is in the refrigerator, tighten the lid. Once your starter is healthy, you can increase the measurements while maintaining a 1:1:1 ratio of starter, flour, and water to grow your starter for baking. Important Notes: *If using cups the ratio of 1.1.1 will not convert the same. Example of an unbleached all purpose starter feed using cups: 1/3 cup starter 1/3 cup warm water and ¾ cup flour. Different flours weigh different so make sure you use the correct conversion for your flour. *A starter will not grow on its own. It will double in size and deflate. You will need to grow the starter to have enough to bake and reserve 60 grams as your starter by feeding equal parts and not discarding daily until you have enough for your needs. (This should only be done after your starter has recovered from the shipping process and is fully active). Guarantee: We guarantee this starter if the following conditions are met: - The feeding directions are followed. -- The correct flour and water ratios are used. -- The starter is stored in a 16 oz jar with a lid, not covered with cloth or paper. -- You send a picture of the starter and allow me the opportunity to troubleshoot any issues.

FREE WITH PURCHASE AND ORDERED CORRECTLY Carl Griffith's sourdough starter, also known as the Oregon Trail Sourdough or Carl's starter, is a sourdough culture, a colony of wild yeast and bacteria cultivated in a mixture of flour and water for use as leavening. Carl's starter has a long history, dating back at least to 1847, when it was carried along the Oregon Trail by settlers from Missouri to Oregon. It was then passed down as an heirloom within the family of Carl Griffith. 1847 Oregon Trail The Oregon Trail sourdough starter is a fascinating piece of culinary history. As settlers journeyed along the Oregon Trail in the mid-19th century, they often brought essential supplies, including ingredients for bread-making. The specific origin of the Oregon Trail starter can be traced back to 1847, when pioneers carried it from Missouri to Oregon, symbolizing their resilience and resourcefulness. Over the years, this old culture has been preserved and passed down through generations, demonstrating the importance of sourdough in pioneer life. The fermentation process allowed them to create nourishing bread and helped improve the shelf life of their baked goods, which was essential for long journeys. Today, the Oregon Trail sourdough starter is valued not just for its unique flavor profile but also for its historical significance. Bakers and enthusiasts often seek out heritage starters like this one to cultivate that same classic taste and connection to the past. Using this starter in modern baking allows for the continuation of traditions stretching back over a century and adds a rich depth of flavor to various breads and baked goods.
