Useful guidelines

Feeding your Starter

Our Starter is fed 100% Wholemeal Flour, this is to give the bread more flavour as the flour contains the wholegrain. You can use white flour or any other grain you prefer. The best flour for starting end feeding would be rye due to its high nutrient content and levels of naturally present lactobacilli.

 

Directions

Simply follow these steps in order to make (fill in titel):

Step 1: Boil the Water

Bring water to a boil in a small saucepan.

Step 2: Add Rosemary

Remove from heat. Add fresh rosemary (or dried) to the hot water.

Step 3: Steep

Cover and let steep for 30 minutes to 2 hours for maximum infusion.

Step 4: Strain

Strain out the rosemary using a fine mesh sieve or cheesecloth. Pour the liquid into a glass jar or bottle.

After shampooing, pour the cooled rosemary water over your scalp and hair. Massage in gently. No need to rinse out — just towel-dry and style as usual.

🌿 For easier use: pour into a spray bottle and mist onto your scalp daily as a tonic.
