Sourdough Focaccia with Black Tahini and Whole Wheat
Sourdough Focaccia with Black Tahini is my bread of the week. Incredibly aromatic due to the black tahini, lending a subtle sesame flavour and the olive oil, giving a lovely crunchy crust and soft crumb.
The Sourdough adds rise and a nice tang, while the wholewheat contributes its characteristic nuttiness. The toppings are your choice. I love it classic with Rosemary and garlic, adding sumac for a pleasant acidity and black sesame, hinting to the black Tahini inside.
German Sourdough Black Bread
This hearty German Sourdough Black Bread is very similar to Pumpernickel, in that is has whole grains and is made with dark rye flour, baked very slowly. The added sourdough gives it more flavour and easy digestibility, while softening the grains in the slow fermentation. This is a dense and flavourful bread, amazing with both savoury and sweet toppings. And really good for you.
