Take rye flour, best is whole grain because the bacteria for the sourdough are in the husk.

Take one spoon of flour, one spoon of water. After 12h, add one spoon of flour, one spoon of water.

From there: double all 12h, or remove half and double the half you have left.

After 3-4 days, you have your sourdough, and you can start baking your first bread, maybe for the first bread you can still add a bit of yeast to your bread dough.

If you buy sourdough, they also tell you it takes 1-2 days to start, so it's not much of a difference.

In general, when I start a new sourdough, I feed it every day for 10 days to 2 weeks, then I keep it in the fridge and feed when I bake, all 1-2 weeks...

You can do it!

If you want to order online: spice & zest. https://spiceandzest.com/
But it will take longer if you order, wait for the thing to arrive, and then it takes 2 days till you can bake. Plus it is much overpriced.

If you have a way to get it from me in five towns I’ll gladly give you otherwise order from spice and zest.

Make it yourself!!

I've been making sourdough stater for many years and this is what works well for me:

I use whole wheat flour for my stater but all purpose for my baking. Non chlorine water - either filtered or spring water works fine.

Day 1
1 teaspoon flour
1 teaspoon water
Add to glass jar and mix. Let sit 24 hours.

Day 2
1 teaspoon flour
1 teaspoon water
Add to starter mixture and mix.

Day 3
2 teaspoons flour
2 teaspoons water
Add to starter and mix

Day 4
4 teaspoon flour
4 teaspoon water
Add to glass jar and mix. Let sit 24 hours.

Day 5
8 teaspoon flour
8 teaspoon water
Add to glass jar and mix. Let sit 24 hours.

Day 6
16 teaspoon flour
16 teaspoon water
Add to glass jar and mix. Let sit 24 hours.

I don't discard anything.
After day 6 my starter is ready to use.
