## Description

Product description In 2004 we had a simple idea: bring our professional and artisanal bakery know-how into every foodie’s home. Thanks to the work of our Research and Development Laboratory, we create bread mixes, dried sourdoughs and flours to bake natural products from good and selected ingredients. From the beginning, Ruggeri has been following a Clean Label philosophy: we use only natural ingredients, free from Mono and Diglycerides of fatty acids or chemical emulsifiers. That's why we are a “Flours Laboratory”: every day we test the best raw materials to obtain natural, healthy and tasty baked products. With our mixes for bread, pizza and cakes you save time without compromising the quality of the raw materials and the final result. Our products follow today’s food trends, which allow the consumer to follow a healthy but always tasty diet. Ruggeri mixes for bread, pizza, pasta, focaccia, cakes give the possibility to obtain a professional result at home. Practical and versatile, they are perfect for classic baking recipes or for your creative cooking experiments. Many of our mixes are complete, so they do not require the addition of other ingredients. Just add the right amount of water. Ruggeri bread and pizza mixes can be used both with hand preparation and with bread machine. Ingredients Prepared with dried sourdough 80% (soft wheat flour, dried wheat germ sourdough 5%), dry yeast, wheat gluten, dried live lactic ferments 0.01% Directions For bread, dose 10% of the flour weight and let the dough rise for 2 hours at room temperature (e.g. B. simply add 50 g of dried sourdough to 500 g flour and follow the recipe). For pizza recipes, dose 5% of the flour weight. For long-lasting processes, reduce the dosage by 5% of the flour weight and place the dough in the fridge.

Review: Excellent Sourdough Starter - I have been trying to perfect my sourdough on and off for a couple of years without any real success. I prepared a new starter following guidelines from a respectable cook book but bought this as a backup in case of failure. My starter was working but I thought I’d try a few spoonfuls of this to help it along. And it did! My starter was soon as lively as ever and smelling delicious - ready for baking. After a couple of bakes that turned out OK (water content needing tweaking a bit) my latest loaf turned out absolutely amazing!! Beautiful crispy crust and soft, slightly chewy texture. It had a mild sour flavour, not too overpowering. My starter is about a month old and in great condition - I store it in the fridge if I’m not baking for a week or so and revive it with flour and a teaspoon of Pasta Madre. Highly recommended.
Review: Makes a tasty loaf - I followed the instructions suggested by another reviewer to make a 'cheat's sourdough starter' by adding a teaspoon of the yeast to 100gm flour, 120ml water and a teaspoon of sugar. This fermented overnight and was used in the bread maker the next day. The dough was then allowed to rise slowly overnight after being knocked back once. It's turned out more like a farmhouse bloomer in consistency than sourdough. It's soft inside with a hard, chewy crust. It smells good and is very tasty. I would maybe try this method again, or just use it straight in the bread maker as normal. The use by date on the packet isn't that long, three months left, but then I suppose once it's opened you'd want to be using it up fairly quickly anyway. Good value as there's plenty in the tin to make a good few loaves. I'm impressed and would buy again.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ So simple and much more convenient
*by S***S on 24 August 2024*

What’s not to love about this sour dough starter? I absolutely love it, especially as I can make sour dough without killing the starter! Great quality, versatile enough for bread, pizza base, any dough really. The instructions on the pot are in Italian, however you can get a translation online, even in the listing. You use 10% starter to flour, so this was enough for me to make four lots of 500g dough. Great rise and really straight forward, with a long shelf life you just put the lid on and keep in the cupboard until your next loaf. Really love it, as long as this is on sale then I don’t think I’ll ever go back to regular starter!
