Sarah and Aitana make this rye loaf every week. It’s wonderfully simple but utterly delicious with both sweet and savoury meal. They like it best toasted, spread thickly with home-made jam and salted butter or with scrambled eggs. But it goes well with just about anything. |
The high sourdough starter content means this loaf stays moist for ages - if you can resist eating it. The nuttiness of the hemp and linseeds combines beautifully with the earthiness of the camelina and rye but feel free to add whichever seeds you fancy. And once you get the hang of it, you can experiment by adding delights such as sprouted grains or dried fruit and nuts.
For more brilliant recipes from Sarah and Aitana, check out their cookbook A La Mesa which celebrates seasonal British produce and encourages us all to reconnect with how, where and by whom the food we eat is grown and to feel empowered cooking it.

This fresh, aromatic dish is perfect for late spring evenings. The well-rounded combination of creamy white beans, sweet fennel, zingy lemon and bitter greens is best enjoyed with some crusty bread and a glass of white wine.

Eden's latest recipe is inspired by the Catalan method of adding dry or fried bread to dishes to thicken sauces and make them more luxurious. Paired with the briny and acid dressing, this is a great way to eat beans, not at all heavy but both savoury and bright. Best served with salad and bread – double bread! – why not?

Sikil Pak is a deliciously nutty and moorish traditional Mayan dip made from toasted or roasted pumpkin seeds and charred tomatoes. Serve alongside freshly fried totopos (tortilla chips) with a margarita if you fancy.
