Oh what a shame your family bread starter is lost!
Maybe you can revive the tradition somehow!
Hmmm I am very curious to try some authentic Finnish Rye Bread now, but am pretty sure that if I even found something labelled as that in a shop here it would NOT be authentic! We don't seem to have a very big Finnish community in Australia.....
Ooh I want to try that liquorice too! I MAY find that in an obscure shop somewhere.
A lot of the bread simply labelled 'sourdough' here leaves a lot to be desired. I'm pretty sure you can slap that label on anything you like here. It's not like food labelling in France! (or other places I am sure)
The sourdough I make is really sour! Mmmmmmmmmmmmm I baked some the other day that I am eating through now YUM
