Chenabura dried sourdough, also known as dried mother dough with yeast, is made from the most noble part of the wheat kernel—the germ. Unlike other yeasts, Chenabura is highly digestible and is the ideal solution for those who are intolerant to fresh baker’s yeast. One of the main advantages of using our mother dough with yeast is the development of distinctive aromatic notes that enhance the flavor and aroma of the finished product.



Suitable for all types of bread, focaccia, breadsticks, crackers, pizzas, leavened desserts, and large leavened cakes such as Panettone and Pandoro.

Pizza with high crust

A unique aroma and crunchiness for your bread or focaccia

Once you’ve tried it, you won’t be able to do without it anymore — are you sure you want to miss out? Thanks to its distinctive notes and aromas, your bread or focaccia will never be the same again.

What if I use fresh brewer’s yeast?

If you are currently using fresh brewer’s yeast and want to replace it with Chenabura Sourdough, the conversion is really simple.

15 g Fresh Yeast = 45 g Chenabura

Multiply the amount of fresh yeast by 3

We still suggest you experiment with the quantities, as they may vary depending on what you’re making.

The dough raising mix works very well. Is it normal that the best before date is already in couple months? Bought end of August, best before date 12/2025.
