Bring the Taste of Tuscany to Your Kitchen with Nonna Bella!
Discover the magic of Nonna Bella, a 10g dehydrated sourdough starter that carries over 200 years of Tuscan baking tradition. Originating in Ponte Buggianese, Italy, this living culture may date back even further, but we can trace its legacy with certainty to the 1800s, when our matriarch, Nonna Bella, baked rustic loaves in her stone-walled kitchen. Passed down through generations, it crossed the Atlantic in 1914 with our ancestor Gioconda Tamantini, preserving a piece of our family’s heritage.
