Sourdough bread has been around for thousand years and is enjoyed all over the world. Sourdough is a bread making process that relies on slow and natural fermentation that allows the wild yeast and lactic acid bacteria to work their magic. Such bread loaf is not only incredibly aromatic and rich in flavor, but is also packed with nutrients including carbs, protein, fiber, iron and vitamins.

Sourdough bread is easy to digest because long fermentation breaks down gluten and starches, and fiber helps feed the "good" bacteria in your intestines. Such bread also has lower glycemic index which means it does not spike blood sugar levels as quickly as other types of bread.

Just try it!

Straight from Grain

 All ingredients that I use to bake bread are organic and carefully selected. Each bread starts with non-processed flour that I mill myself from organic wheat and rye grain. Because I use flour direcly milled from grain, I call my bread whole wheat. The result is a truly authentic, wholesome taste you won't find anywhere else.

Sourdough Starter

 The heart of my every sourdough loaf is the starter—a living, breathing culture of wild yeast and beneficial bacteria. This natural leavening agent, created from just flour and water, brings life to the dough and gives its distinctive tang and depth of flavor. With each feeding, I grow starter stronger and stronger, developing complex flavors and natural leavening power that no commercial yeast can replicate. My carefully nurtured startermakes sourdough bread so unique, adding character, aroma, and a wholesome, rustic charm to every slice.

Long Cold Fermentation

 The long, cold fermentation process is what makes sourdough bread so truly special. By allowing the dough to rise and develop slowly in a cool environment, typically overnight or longer, the natural enzymes and wild yeast in the starter have more time to break down the starches and proteins in the flour. This extended fermentation not only deepens the flavor, creating a rich, complex taste with subtle tang, but also enhances the bread’s texture, giving it a chewy crumb and a crisp, golden crust. Additionally, the slow fermentation makes the bread easier to digest and more nutritionally beneficial, as it unlocks the full potential of the grain. It takes time and patients, but it pays off in every bite.

Delicious Bread
From The Oven To Your Table

 Scoring and and the final bake are the finishing steps that transform dough into a beautifully crafted loaf. Scoring, making shallow cuts on the surface of the dough before baking, allows the bread to expand properly in the oven. These intentional cuts guide the loaf’s rise, creating its unique shape and helping develop the desired crust. Once in the oven, the magic of oven spring occurs—this is the rapid rise during the first minutes of baking when the trapped gases in the dough expand, giving the bread its airy interior and perfect structure. Finally, the bread continues to bake until the crust turns a deep golden brown, achieving that satisfying crispness. The final bake caramelizes the natural sugars in the dough, locking in flavor and producing the irresistibly rustic, crackling crust that defines great sourdough.

Bon Appetite!
