This jar of rosemary, sultanas and apple is the beginning of a wild-fermented botanical water. Once it’s fizzy, I’ll strain and then use it, along with flour, to build a starter. I’ll then use this starter (as I would a standard sourdough one), to leaven a loaf.

What a cool technique?! It’s from Naturally Fermented Bread by @morgancarsandbread – a book that I found via an IG live Paul did a few months ago.

Aside the leavening power of this ferment, the liquid will also give my bread flavour. And I’m guessing it’ll be delicious, because it smells amazing already.
