The Culinary Kiwi Bird, Insch , Aberdeenshire

My sourdoughs are made with predominantly organic Scottish flours from Mungoswells North Berwick and Beremeal from Orkney - these flours are from small mills and are free from fortificants; my pastries are made with the best French pastry flour from Foricher Moulins and organic pastry flour from Shipton Mill, with butter from The Edinburgh Butter Company. My salt comes from Great Taste Award winning 3 Star Blackthorn Salt over in Ayrshire. Everything is handcrafted by me in my home based micro-bakery. Other ingredients I try to keep as local and as seasonal as possible.

I am a fully paid up supporter of the Real Bread Campaign whose mission it is to find and share ways to make bread better for us, better for our communities and better for the planet. The Real Bread Campaign is calling for a change in law to help people understand that not all loaves are created equal enabling them to make better choices. It is campaigning for improved loaf labelling and marketing laws in the UK. My sourdoughs are made from just flour, salt and water unlike most “sourfaux” loaves you’ll find in the supermarkets. My loaves are handcrafted, they are not partially baked but baked fresh on the day and they don’t contain any nasties! You can find out more information on this campaign at https://www.sustainweb.org/realbread/

Please note, as of 2027, the new folic acid law will require my white loaves to contain the fortificants but my non white loaves will remain free from additives.
