A sourdough sandwich loaf. It looks like a normal slice, but it really exceeded all my expectations!!
So it all started with soaking up some purple and brown wheat berries and few teaspoons of whole bajra. Washed and soaked. Drained and ground to a thick batter. Rest added sourdough starter, salt, wholemeal flour and waited for the magic to happen.
It took me two days from soaking, shaping to baking. But it was all worth the wait.
If you are in Auckland and looking to experiment with some healthy flours, my go to place is Bulk Food Savings . Do check them out. They have pretty decent stock of so many interesting flours. This is not a paid promotion !! Just a baker learning to find your baking things in a new place. I miss some things, but also I am in awe of the new things I get to try.
Also if you like baking, comment down your favourite place to shop for baking ingredients in Auckland.
