Flaxseed Sourdough made of SFB, sea salt, soaked flaxseed meal, SFB- Levito Madre preferment, wholemeal wheat- rye sourdough preferment and last but not least water.
I’m leaving the traditional way in using two preferments: one with rye sourdough starter and the other with apple-yeast-water. The fermentation for the preferments is „slowed down" to 16-20 hours.
"Heritage grains" are traditional varieties of grains.
They were grown and passed down before scientists started heavily changing them in what's called the "GREEN REVOLUTION" from the early 20th century to the late 1980s.
These grains are sometimes called "ancient grains" or „Urkorn (in German),“ but that's not entirely accurate. They're not ancient, but they haven't been altered by breeding or genetic modification in order to create larger harvests or optimised for a usage with fertilisers, herbicides or pesticides.
For example:
WHEAT ( Tritium aestivum L.) e.g Rotkornweizen , Gelbmehlweizen
SPELT (Triticum aestivum spelta)e.g Oberkulmer Rotkorn
EMMER (Triticum dioccum)
EINKORN (Tritium monococcum)
KHORASAN (also known as Kamut) (Triticum turgidum)
Leavened by an “aged” Lievito Madre this brioche dough needs many hours till it hits the oven. No sugar in the dough but honey. For the topping a mixture of brown Taiwanese 🇹🇼, dark brown Korean🇰🇷 and castor sugar is used. #sourdoughbaking #shatinbread #hongkong

A sourdough bread made of 100% #heritagegrains #urkorn . More yellow than modern wheat and packed with nutrients. My own mixture of #Einkorn #Emmer #oberkulmerrotkorn #gelbmehlweizen #lichtkornroggen
I used rye sourdough starter, Lievito Madre and my apple yeast water to prepare sourdough levain and preferment. The taste is worth the extra mile.
