🔥 *Take my new course and start making great sourdough. Right away. With confidence: https://courses.truefood.tv/courses/make-great-sourdough*
I tested four ancient wheats to see how they performed (and tasted) as a sourdough bread loaf — starting with milling each whole grain. Guess which loaf won?
I’m sharing all the results: how absorbent each flour was; how easy each dough was to handle and shape; how well each one rose (fermentation / gluten strength); and of course, the unique flavor and texture of each.
