Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Sourdough's not really faffy. Rye flour starter is easy - as Sally Kate says. You just need a bit of PATIENCE as the starter has to get fermenting and start bubbling.

I was dead pissed off that the rye flour I'd ordered was omitted from my order to H&B after being informed by email it was 'now in stock'. It was just chance we'd run out as I often put some rye flour in my parkin.

I like using different flours as they really do produce different results.

Beware of coconut flour though - some versions are RUBBISH and don't work as they should. I'm looking at you Holland Barratt. Groovy Company from Sains much better.

I mainly buy Doves flour for everything.

I can only tolerate a little bit of rye flour unfortunately so I'm not sure if a rye starter would be ok for me.

GM - I love cookbooks.

I couldn't decide which recipe to use - I want a 2lb fruit loaf using tea and plain flour&BP, preferably boiled, possibly lard.
