Our poor dear blog has been ignored for too long, but here’s a little recipe to make things right. It’s all about a dried sourdough starter I bought at an organic grocery in Tallin by a German company called Lecker’s. I thought it sounded like a lovely product and wanted to give it a try, [...]
Finnish rye bread is dense and dark and sour, and as biased as I am, I must say it’s easily my favorite bread in the whole world. I always used to think that it’s hard to make, but as it turns out the process isn’t complicated at all – you just need to know what you’re aiming at. [...]
It’s been way too long since I’ve blogged about anything. I’ve been quite busy, but things are a lot less hectic now, and I can focus on important things, like making pickles and baking bread. I had always thought caraway as a spice to use with rye sourdough bread, but this bread demonstrated me how [...]

Happy new year everyone! We are back from the holidays, and it feels great to be baking and cooking and blogging from our little kitchen again.
Focaccia is one of my favorite homemade breads, mainly because I lack the patience of a true bread maker and it’s so simple! I used to always make it with [...]

This bread was extremely yummy and oh so easy to make! All my thanks go to Celine from have cake will travel, since I adapted this recipe from her Whole Wheat Germ Bread. We don’t have white whole wheat flour in Finland, so I just combined a little regular white flour with a larger amount [...]
I usually use at least some white flour in my bread doughs, and haven’t baked bread with just whole wheat before, so I was very pleasantly surprised at how wonderfully these carrot buns turned out. I didn’t add any regular wheat flour, but decided to mix in a little bit of gluten flour to add [...]

This recipe is a variation on my recipe for Olive Tomato Bread, I just made a few alterations to the ingredients. I love this bread – it’s very satisfying and packed with flavor. Spelt flour and walnuts gave the bread a very nice texture, and I developed a topping that really makes sunflower seeds stick [...]

I created this bread recipe to test how high a dough can rise if the baker can control her impatience and let it sit for a while. I found out that with regular all-purpose wheat flour, the bread dough will triple its size in just over half an hour, and double in only 15 minutes. [...]

I haven’t baked bread for a long while, and I’ve never baked a two-colored bread. After baking, the colors weren’t as bright as I had hoped they would be, but the bread was tasty. Grated beets would maybe result in a brighter purple color, and spinach is probably greener than arugula.
This amount of dough makes [...]
