1kg sourdough bread made with SBF, flaxseed meal (7%) and chickpea flour (7%). Two preferments are used: one with Lievito Madre and the other with rye sourdough. Cold proofed for 18hrs. Actually one or two hrs more or less doesn’t make a difference but provides flexibility when baking different breads in a day.

Trying to use easy available but low protein AP for Baguette 🥖. Reduced the water very much - still dough was difficult to handle. Outcome not too bad. For couch and on bench I used “roasted” milled lievito madre powder.

Using up “leftover” #RotKornWeizen , a wheat heritage grain, mixed with wholemeal spelt to have enough flour. Unfortunately enzyme activity went crazy during proofing, so I baked it earlier than expected. It flattened but result is much better than I feared. And taste is gorgeous.
Sourdough baking can be very exciting and sometimes unpredictable, but with a little experience one knows how to react.

🥖🔨 Oh look, a German loaf of bread with existential dread has been on TV for 25 years—because, clearly, what the world needed was a gluten-infused therapist with a side of sauerkraut. 📺😂 Forget self-help books; just tune into a perpetually miserable carb for life advice. 🤦‍♂️🙄

Meet Bernd das Brot, a depressed German loaf of bread that's spent 25 years as a TV cult classic

A depressed German loaf of bread named Bernd das Brot is celebrating his 25th anniversary as the reluctant star of a children’s television program. Bernd das Brot, or Bernd the Bread, is a cult classic in Germany. The puppet is renowned for his deep, gloomy voice, his forever-grumpy outlook on life and his favorite expression, “Mist!” This year, his friends are urging him to become a bread influencer. Bernd’s first episode aired on KiKA in 2000. In 2003, the network put Bernd into the night loop for the first time, kicking off his popularity among adults.

Sourdough Gugelhupf Salé -salty with Salami and Onions. As starter I used #apple-yeast-water in a classic 3-step way to build the dough. Though I added a tiny amount of turmeric the egg yolks used are are very creamy and creamy n deep yellow (orange) colour .

Wholemeal rye (100%) sourdough breads. Made with two preferments:
- rye starter
- apple yeast water
Seeds were soaked overnight in the fridge, so they won’t draw moisture from the bread dough.
