Yesterday’s bread experiment -the crumb revealed

Yesterday’s bread experiment -the crumb revealed (see previous post) All doughs @shiptonmill 75:25 white flour and either einkorn. Barley or heritage wheat. Same amount of starter and 70% hydration. First is einkorn, Second barley, third Heritage Wheat (this I scored twice for some reason) #crumbshot #sourdoughbread #sourdoughbaking #teamrofco #soutdoughseptember #organicflour #breadtalk

Three different loaves, three different flours from @shiptonmill . 75:25 white and barley or einkorn or heritage wheat ( love that this is grown and milled just down the road) same sourdough starter for each loaf of bread. .
.
First loaf is the einkorn - it is smaller and more dense; the barley and heritage wheat are second and third and very similar in volume..
Turn up the volume! #teamrofco #sourdoughbaking #sourdoughseptember #breadchat

A very lively rye starter in today’s sourdough. Rolled in British rye flakes from @hodmedods The crumb is light and airy. Flour @shiptonmill light rye and baker’s no1 #flourThe crust could have been crisper but that might have charred the flakes.

Is venison on your menu? Try this tasty venison stew where porter is the special ingredient. Venison is a less fatty alternative to beef and so good for you! The flavours are rich and savoury. Link to recipe in bio. #venison #venisonrecipes #supper #instarecipe

Do you use light rye flour? It has all the flavour of rye but makes for a lighter loaf. This sourdough was made with @shiptonmill light rye, their 5 seed mix and Type 55 French flour. Just perfect for sandwiches in #sourdoughseptember #breadchat #teamrofco #sourdoughbaking #flour

Such a simple but effective idea from @marieclaireidees - transform pancakes into animals by adding fruit. T made the pancakes first then created a mouse I corn among other shapes! #pancakes #kidsbaking

One of my favourite places to teach bread is @loghouseholidays , beautiful cabins looking over the lake complete with hot tub. So good to be back and teaching a pizza class. Sourdough pizza was cooked on a very nifty @chadwick_oven and quickly devoured by the participants, the sun shone - perfect peace #sourdoughpizza #sourdoughseptember #cotswolds #staycation2020 @realbreadcampaign

A fruited sourdough with dried pears and pecans. It has just the right amount of crunch and sweetness. @shiptonmill Type 55 French flour and Light Rye flours. With #sourdoughseptember on its way, how about getting a starter going? It is easier than you think! Link in bio #sourdough #frenchflour #realbread #breadchat #crumbshot

Sourdough in the garden in the tent. Managed to choose the driest day of the week on Monday. We went through all the techniques and stages in a morning (with some pre-preparation) The lovely Lynne has just sent me a wonderful photo of a loaf she’s just made - so proud!

Classes are just for two at the moment and will continue as long as we have some good weather days..
