Pumpernickel Rye Loaf
Black German-style rye bread, very good for topping with cold meats or salad. I generally toast it and have poached eggs on top.
Cheese & Marmite Spelt Muffins
Bake for elevenses or lunchtime. These muffins are light, moist and delicious to eat. Keep well in an air-tight container for several days.
Silesian light sourdough rye bread
My staple bread. Great for sandwiches and very, very tasty. The technique of short burst of kneading makes it easy to make, and it can be fitted around everyday household routine.
Crusty Continental (ish) rolls
Crusty Rolls with Sourdough starter for Flavour and Crunchy crust rather than a leaven
Seedy Bloomer
This recipe is for a super tastey, seedy, crusty soft bloomer - delicious with just butter, preferably consumed on the patio with a cup of coffee!
Pizza base
This is a simple pizza base that you can make quickly in a bread maker, and after rolling it out put whatever you fancy on top. Brilliant for people of all ages.
My Lovely Loaf
A wholsesome, healthy, delicious and satisfying bread for everyday use. So versatile and well structured - cut it thin and make sandwiches to serve with a salad, or start your day with it toasted, slathered in butter and marmalade; cut it chunky to eat with or without butter dunked into soup, or as a snack with a piece of your favourite cheese. This bread will grace the highest of tables or the simplest cheese-on-toast supper. Whenever I serve it, at the church supper, or to a tradesman in a bacon sandwich, it's always the same - "Mmm! Where did you get this bread?" Simple to make - flex the process around your day. Works out about 40p per loaf.
Overnight (or out all day) Sourdough
Sourdough loaf with Crispy Crust that you can hear crackling when removed from the oven. I make this when I'll be out all day, or overnight.
Danish Rye Bread Method
Basic method that can be used to make many variations of proper Danish rye bread, far better than anything you can buy in the shops. Danish rye bread is of course excellent with all types of strong cheeses, all salty food, pickled herring, yellow pea soup, Danish sausages - and you can use it to make rye bread soup should you feel thus inclined.
Authentic Neopolitan Pizza Dough
This recipe is to make a delicious pizza dough just like the ones in Naples with a thicker crust which is light, soft and will taste as if its come straight out of a wood fired oven!
