Set up for one of David Carter’s ever-useful sourdough Q & As and demos this evening. We’ll never forget @breadmatters reminding us in the early days that our starter was “not a person that was in danger of being killed.”

Watch the dough, not the clock. The wetter the better. Think they came from @RichardBertinet and @BreadMatters, respectively. #RealBread
When you're making bread, what’s the one tip, hint or skill that you always use? 🍞

Definitely worth a read. @BreadMatters was a huge inspiration to the school, and his books are essential reading for our students. #realbread #wheat #diversity

For any folks missing my #LifeCommentary silliness, here's a bit you may not have found. I did it for my mates in return for their amazing veg stock which I use loads.
They went on a mission to make stock that's actually veg, not just loads of salt. Maybe buy some and see 🙂

We have been doing this for years now, and often don’t use a recipe but if you are looking for a book @BreadMatters is the best in my view. @scotlandbread is also worth a follow. 3/3

For those interested in #sourdough #bread, I recommend Bread Matters, winner of Best Food Book 2006, by @BreadMatters Andrew Whitley. Also his book, Do Sourdough. @SharonFrazierNY @laura_t_nyc @ElectionMargie #makingbreadislikemakinglove #COVID19 #StayAtHome
Sourdough bread seems to be all the rage now. I have been making this for years. Wheat, rye, spelt, arkatena (chickpea flour). Pictured is French Country Bread ala Andrew Whitley, author of Bread Matters.… instagram.com/p/B-Zo7O9Bw-i/…

.@five_books asked me to select just five (HOW!!!) of my bread books to talk about for #RealBreadWeek. [NB No additives in bread, only in industrial loaf products. :) ]
@BreadMatters @dan_lepard @ModCuisine @nathanmyhrvold @FMigoya #bread #baking #RealBread
NEW interview: Do you wish you knew how to make bread? Are you aware of all the additives that go into the bread you buy in supermarkets? For real bread week, @RealBread's Chris Young cuts through the 100 bread books he owns to recommend the best five:

It's #RealBreadWeek! Here's my leaven, frothing nicely. I learnt how to make decent bread on a course by @BreadMatters many years ago! My instagram tells you more.

There is nothing quite like the smell of freshly baked bread 🍞

Thank you @Minette_Batters @NFUtweets for holding the Government’s feet to the fire on their feeble promises on food, farming, welfare, climate and environmental standards. We can’t trust the assurances, it needs to be in the law. @UKSustain @GreenerUK_ @WCL_News #AgricultureBill

We get that exclusively baking sourdough at home can be a big undertaking- so fear not! We've got @BreadMatters' recipe for all you bread machine owners out there. #wedontjudgeyouforhavingabreadmachine

Sourdough needs only flour, water, salt – and a little time.
But what if time is the one thing you don’t have?

Real bread guru Andrew Whitley @BreadMatters calculated it takes 1m-square of wheat to make a loaf. After a trip to the excellent @spacecentre - finding it hard to imagine how astronauts could be fed for long. Love our planet. Let’s make 2020 the year we tackled #ClimateChange

Regulation has a huge impact on whether we are able to see the diverse grain future that we want and need.
