My Baking Adventure Part Two

Last weekend we made two different types of bread- whole meal bread and ciabatta. This time we used Biga ,a pre-ferment to add to the texture of the dough making it more airy and light.

The kids loved eating the sliced wholemeal bread more then ciabetta which that gave it a pass. I added garlic butter to it and made it into garlic ciabetta for lunch on Monday.
I can’t wait for the next lesson as we will be learning more about sourdough starters and how to make sourdough breads.
