Orange Blossom Sourdough Starter
Orange Blossom Sourdough Starter
Before yeast came in packets, Californians caught wild native yeasts from the air around blossoming orange trees.
Our Orange Blossom Sourdough Starter carries forward that old California tradition: a hardy, fragrant, forgiving culture descended from an original starter shared from a Whittier kitchen in the 1930s and harvested from Old California Botanicals’ heritage grove.
Easy to revive and difficult to kill, this living starter brings a subtle sense of place to your baking — the flavor of citrus country, old groves, farmhouse kitchens, and a golden age that still rises today.
Use it for rustic sourdough loaves, pancakes, biscuits, focaccia, pizza dough, crackers, and more. Whether you’re an experienced baker or just starting your sourdough journey, this is a beautiful, California-grown culture to make your own.
