I read an interview with Karl de Smedt in german newspaper DIE ZEIT, where he told about an old Italian tradition of using cow-pats as a base for sourdoughs. When I was on a hike in South Tyrol at the Nemes alpine hut, I collected some pieces of dried cow-pats. Back in Hamburg I started this culture. I use freshly milled whole rye flour from a small organic farm close to Hamburg.
