What is sourdough?
Sourdough is the ancient way of bread making. No commercial yeast is used to raise the bread; instead, flour and water are mixed together and allowed to slowly ferment. It is nurtured and a wild yeast ‘sourdough starter’ is born. After each day’s dough is mixed, a little bit of starter is leftover and is fed again with flour and water. It is left to ferment overnight, ready to be used in the next day’s dough. Our sourdough starter is from the 70’s!
Do you make any yeasted bread?
Yes. The following dough products are not sourdough, and they contain yeast:
- Burger Buns
- Herb and Onion Focaccia
- Croissants and Danishes
- Easter Buns
Allergens?
In our kitchen, we handle grains and flour (wheat, rye, spelt, oats, barley, khorasan and buckwheat), dairy products, eggs, nuts and seeds. We can not guarantee an allergen free environment.
Due to the risk of cross contamination, we do not make gluten free products.
