  • You can learn everything you want to know about sourdough from home as though you were here in the school bakery with Vanessa Kimbell & her tutors.
  • Our video tutorials teach you every detail. From how to start a starter, maintain it, to timings, temperatures and shaping to tips on the best way to get an open crumb as well as troubleshooting.

I love this quote by the amazing Dr Micheal Mosely –  it sums up our approach “When it comes to bread not all bread is equal. Some breads are far more wholesome than others. Sourdough eaten as part of a Mediterranean diet is a good choice; I recommend Vanessa Kimbell’s simple approach to making sourdough at home, using wholegrain flour, salt and water and time for bread that nourishes.”

I look forward to seeing you the club ..  & don’t forget to share your bakes on Instagram & in the club forum.

WHY USE THE RETARDED METHOD?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Ferment for longer. The longer the bread is fermented the better, so using the retarded method is best for optimal nutrition and digestibility. The retarded method involves an overnight prove in the fridge – this slows down the yeast and gives the bread the amazing sour and lightly vinegary flavours that are iconic to sourdough bread. Did you know, it is the sourness that contributes to its digestibility? For those who have wheat sensitivity or digestive issues, this method allows for higher levels of acidity and therefore is more digestible. Plus, this method allows for more flexible timings. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

TIBETAN MONASTERY BREAD – BALEP KORKUN 

Today’s member recipe explores the science and the deliciousness around adding a well known spice to sourdough ... I’ve included  the studies that have shown improvement of both the symptoms of IBS and depression.

Easy to make, served warm. Drizzled in honey and oh so aromatic it’s easy to see why there is joy in sharing this bread.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So many people with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) report that they can eat sourdough without digestive discomfort, even when they have difficulty digesting other types of bread.  There is evidence that sourdough’s long, slow fermentation reduces IBS symptoms. But what if you could improve both flavour and the digestibility of your bread by adding a spice?

And, better yet, what if that could change that way you feel – not just physically, but emotionally, too? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
