NOTES FROM CHEF: “I use a sweet sourdough that I feed every 5 days with 125gm Raw Sugar, 125gm Baker’s Unbleached Flour and 200gm milk or kefir. I use this sourdough amongst so many recipes and variant for sweet loafs, cookies, muffins, pancakes etc. It is inspired from HERMAN, the Friendship Bread. A tradition we used to do when I was a kid. It’s great fun, so versatile and delicious. You can share it with your family, friends and neighbours.
