Does anyone have a few teaspoons of yeast? It’s difficult to get fresh bread daily so we want to make some dough to freeze but everywhere is sold out of yeast locally. If anyone has any that I can have I would be v grateful
I went there last week and they didn't even have flour: things are moving fast! Londis on Ferne Park Road is well stocked for most types of flour if anyone needs it.
Hello.. I have a 125g block of doves farm quick yeast that is surplus to requirements. I think those sachets are 7g each so 125g should keep you going for a bit. DM me anyone if interested.
Apparently the flour problem relates to the size of the packaging - 90% of milled flour is sent to bakers in huge sacks and not available in 1kg packets.....last I saw Urban Native was selling loose flour from big sacks, weigh it out yourself. Deli at 80 is getting flour in today Tuesday, they told me.
Many wasted hours and two attempts in, I've given up on sourdough. Might as well throw a couple of kilos of perfectly good flour in the bin. It has been suggested that I use the results to replace some of the bricks in the front wall. Alternatively, I could make a rockery.
I might as well just go back to making perfectly good bread in a bread machine, which will at least be edible. Delicious, usually. It seems to me that sourdough is really overrated, a middle class fad like gluten-free. The only people who need sourdough are people from N16 with time on their hands.

prefer soda bread
Just going to make lemon and poppy seed bread and it will be totally scrumptious, and take half an hour.
