Recipe

Starting ingredients

  • 90g Mineral water
  • 12g Negrillo starter
  • 100g Negrillo flour

Feeding ingredients

1
I refresh it once everyday and put it in a 12 to 14 degrees temperature.I usualy control its ph few times a month but it is mainly an organoleptic feeling and taste of course. 10 to 12% of negrillo starter is enough,the negrillo grem as all the nutriments and enough time and temperature to have a great flovour panel and a great activity. I make about one feed a day.More in case of weakness.

Working method

1
La Negrilla has been made with a old heritage "iberic" wheat,very local in the region of Guadalajara.(Spain).It is a "non hairy" wheat that turn grey to dark during its maturation. We are the only ones that commercialize this wheat that was the sustenance of the people of Castile. Its nuticional contribution is very high because its germ is very great respect the size of the grain and low gluten
