Loaves made with our Active Sourdough with wheat germ

Unlike other sourdoughs, our Active Sourdough with Wheat Germ does not require the addition of brewer's yeast as it completely replaces it. This makes it an ideal product for people who are intolerant to fresh brewer's yeast. Suitable for all types of bread, focaccia, breadsticks, crackers, pizzas and great leavened cakes, the Active Sourdough with Wheat Germ gives aromas to the dough and it enhance the flavor of the finished product.

Here is the professional recipe for making fragrant loaves with our Active Sourdough and Wheat Germ.
