PLEASE NOTE Penny Bun Bakehouse is closed 22nd to 26th Feb, so the next baking and despatch day is either Weds 3rd or Thurs 4th March. Order bread to be baked on the day selected above* and dispatched on the same day for next-day delivery. |
The sourdough loaves in our selection box are baked by Johnny Spillings at the Penny Bun Bakehouse in Lowestoft. From time to time we will vary the selection, at the moment the guest loaf is a delicious smoked quinoa sourdough.
The four loaves are slow fermented with the Penny Bun sourdough starter and baked on the day we send them to you. Sourdough bread keeps beautifully and freezes very well.
"Hodmedod" Sourdough.
The loaf is made with a blend of wholegrain YQ and white flour, a porridge of naked barley flakes and toasted wholegrain quinoa, all slow fermented with the Penny Bun sourdough starter. Once formed the loaves are coated with naked barley flakes and baked. The mild 'sour' flavour of the ferment is complemented by the sweet maltiness of the naked barley, nutty depth of the YQ and the rich, earthy, tang of toasted quinoa.
North Sea Sourdough.
It's Johnny's classic sourdough, inspired by the bakery's location between the North Sea and the arable fields of East Anglia, and made with a blend of white and wholemeal wheat, spelt and rye flours.
The North Sea loaf has a finer crumb than many sourdough loaves, meeting demand from Johnny's customers for a less open texture so the melted butter wouldn't fall through the holes in toast!
Holkham Malted Sourdough.
Made using strong flour milled from Crusoe wheat grown on the Holkham estate in North Norfolk, our Malted Wheat Flakes give the bread a deliciously malty flavour.
*Guest Loaf* Smoked Quinoa Sourdough.
Made with flour milled from grain grown on the Holkham Estate in North Norfolk, our Essex Smoked Quinoa and and rape seeds from our friends down the road in Suffolk at Hill Farm Oils - they add a mustardy sweetness to the finished loaf that perfectly compliments the smoky quinoa flavours.
*Add the loaf to your basket and complete your order as usual. Up to 50 loaves will be baked to order every Wednesday and Thursday. Orders for Wednesday baking must be received by 3pm on the Monday. Orders for Thursday baking must be received by 3pm on the Tuesday

Wakelyns Whole Coral Lentils, Organic
Hodmedod's British Pulses & Grains
£4.50
| Organic lentils from Wakelyns Agroforestry are back! |
In the late summer of 2017 we harvested the first commercial crop of British-grown lentils at Wakelyns after several years of trials, an experimental mixture of varieties - a mottled green lentil (the same variety as is grown in Le Puy-en-Velay, in France) and a gun-metal grey lentil (also widely grown in France).
We're excited to now have more organic lentils from Wakelyns, this time Coral Lentils grown and harvested in 2020. If split these would be what we more usually call a red lentil, but these are a traditional French variety best eaten whole. Because they're so limited we're only selling these special lentils in 500g packs.
Pioneering Suffolk research farm Wakelyns was established in 1994 by our friend and mentor the late professor Martin Wolfe to test and develop agroforestry approaches that integrate annual crops (like lentils and cereals) with trees and other perennial plants.
Martin aimed to increase diversity in fields and between fields, an approach that increases overall yields and ensures the farm is better able to cope with climatic variability, pest and disease pressures and is less dependent on inputs, like fertiliser, from outside the farm.

| We also have Olive Green Lentils from a number of other UK farmers. |

Our Wakelyns Lentils have a superb peppery, nutty flavour and firm texture. They're great in soups, stews, curries and salad.
Cooking instructions
Rinse the lentils in a sieve, check for small stones, and place in a pan with plenty of fresh water water. Bring to the boil, simmer for 15 to 20 minutes until tender.
Don't over-cook - taste the lentils toward the end of the cooking process. To make a salad or a cold lentil dish drench the lentils in cold water immediately after cooking, this will stop them cooking further and ensure they stay nice and firm.

Wheat Semolina, Organic
Hodmedod's British Pulses & Grains
£1.99 £2.79
Organic wheat semolina sifted from stone-ground flour milled at the traditional Worsborough water mill in Barnsley.
Semolina - also known as wheat middlings - is a coarse flour consisting mostly of the nutritious wheat grain germ, a natural by-product of white flour that's sifted out in milling. Highly nutritious and flavoursome, semolina is used in baking and to make pasta, cous cous, pastries and breakfast cereals, as well as the eponymous pudding.
Though we only sell wholemeal flour we still want to find kitchens and bakers keen to use bran and semolina. This is because the process of making white flour involves removing up to 35% of the wheat grain. These parts of the grain, which include semolina and bran, are full of flavour and nutrition. We think it's a pity to feed them to animals or compost them, especially given the effort that goes in to growing them.
