Add all ingredients to a bread mixer. Mix for five minutes, then rest for two minutes, continue to mix for a further five minutes.

Once mixed shape the dough using a dough sraper, return dough to the mixing bowl and then cover and leave to rise for an hour. After the rising process shape the bread in to loaves,french sticks or rolls and leave to rise for 30 minutes before baking for 30 to 40 minutes at 230 degree C.

Centuries of milling

A mill was first recorded on this site in the Domesday book of 1086. We follow in the footsteps of generations of Millers. There is a sense of place and continuity at the heart of what we do.

Traditional Grains

We select our grains by their excellence, not the average. It is up to us to then capture and distil these flavours from the grain into flour through our precise and expert milling processes.

Protecting the environment

Shipton Mill has been guided from day one by the mission to leave the earth in a better place than we inherit it. Being a champion for regenerative organic agriculture is one strand of this.
