Set up for one of David Carter’s ever-useful sourdough Q & As and demos this evening. We’ll never forget @breadmatters reminding us in the early days that our starter was “not a person that was in danger of being killed.”

Watch the dough, not the clock. The wetter the better. Think they came from @RichardBertinet and @BreadMatters, respectively. #RealBread

@highrisebakers @scotlandbread @RealBread Very well deserved. Here you are learning to make hot cross buns at Macbiehill five years ago. Veronica (and the bread) made you smile. You've done so much in your community, especially during the pandemic. Best wishes to you all. Andrew

[SchoolofArtisanFood @artisanschool]

Definitely worth a read. @BreadMatters was a huge inspiration to the school, and his books are essential reading for our students. #realbread #wheat #diversity

Thank you. #realsourdough is a model circular economy whose values are mutuality, diversity, collaboration.

Flour to the People! Diverse, locally-adapted grains rich in nutrients, low-energy milling, #RealBread, community baking. This is food justice, not only for an emergency but to change the food system for good and all. @scotlandbread

For any folks missing my #LifeCommentary silliness, here's a bit you may not have found. I did it for my mates in return for their amazing veg stock which I use loads.

They went on a mission to make stock that's actually veg, not just loads of salt. Maybe buy some and see 🙂

@ukgutfeelings Yes, wholemeal wheat flour will work just as well. Instructions here: https://t.co/E6zo281BKx (third one down). Our new pack design out now includes instructions for wheat refreshment. Good baking!

We have been doing this for years now, and often don’t use a recipe but if you are looking for a book @BreadMatters is the best in my view. @scotlandbread is also worth a follow. 3/3

@jancornelissen6 @jancornelissen6, hello. I am aware of WGA being bracketed with ATIs as potential toxins, although they also seem to have some anti-tumour properties. I too can't find anything on the effect of low pH & LAB fermentation on WGA. I have asked a Swedish friend and will let you know.

[Andrew Whitley @BreadMatters]

No problem @albion168. You'll find the answer in here: https://t.co/4lFHj1iyHR Good baking!
