Gail's French Dark Sourdough 400g
Product Description
GAIL's French Dark Sourdough
Our homage to a long and honourable tradition made famous by celebrated Parisian Boulangerie Poilâne. Characterised by a deep, hand-scored crust and a light lacy interior, our French Dark Sourdough toasts beautifully, keeps well and matures a little more every day - c'est magnifique!
About GAIL's
GAIL's believes in the art of honest breadmaking. We start with just four simple ingredients: flour, water, salt and yeast, and we never add artificial colours or flavours. Instead, we seek out the best ingredients from where they're best, whether it's hand-peeled Bramley apples from Britain, single source unsalted butter from France, or plump juicy olives from Mediterranean groves. All our loaves are made by hand too, so we never need to add the stabilisers and preservatives that are an unavoidable fact of industrialised bread.
Our selection of classic and globally-inspired artisanal breads includes a range of sourdoughs made from 15-year old wild yeast starters. Allowed to rise slowly and naturally, these loaves take 48 hours to make and possess a mature taste and character that a mechanically processed loaf couldn't hope to match.

don't think THIS is sourdough

Excellent bread
Bought this bread once before and thought it was too hard. However decided to give it another go and now know exactly how to enjoy it at it's best without it going too hard. When it arrives I slice it all, put it back in the brown bag then put that bag into a plastic bag, that way it keeps for at least 4 days to either eat just buttered, or toasted. Any leftover crusts or slices after that I use for breadcrumbs. Expensive compared to other bread but you can't beat the flavour and I now buy every week.

Proper
love this. it is a simple pleasure - I like with a generous layer of french unsalted butter, for breakfast and snacks. Maybe some cheese or ham as open sandwich. Nice rustic chewy tangy loaf.
