Fresh Sourdough Bread
My life as a baker started at age 3 helping my Mum at the kitchen table, decorating her loaves of bread with plaits. I moved from yeast to sourdough in my twenties, and have been developing my skills as a bread baker for over 35 years.
I source my flours as locally as possible - Wheat and Rye grown in Much Dewchurch. Spelt and Gluten-free flours are from Shipton Mill in the Cotswolds. All ingredients are organic.
I keep my sourdough starter on the go all the time, happy and healthy with rye flour. I use a chickpea starter for my gluten free bread. A slow prove means from starter to loaf is about 20 hours. All my loaves freeze well.
