Super Simple Sourdough Bread
by Rosamund EdwardsI've pledged to go plastic free on bread & crackers this July! We eat bread daily in our household so this means we need to go home-made.
This home-made sourdough bread recipe is a winner! It's so easy, you can make it while you're preparing dinner.
I just go a bit gooey at the thought of freshy baked sourdough & butter. This loaf is incredibly easy to make and will stay fresh for days (try storing it in an organic cotton produce bag like a loot bag, or else in the loaf tin you bake in, covered by a tea towel.)
Have you tried making bread and found it messy & time-consuming? (Unless of course you've invested in a bread-maker!) This sourdough recipe is a NO-KNEAD recipe.
Sunflower Crackers
by Rosamund EdwardsMy all-time favourite cracker base to date is sunflower seeds. When ground and baked till golden they come up crunchy, filling yet light, and very moreish. Add a little salt, herbs, garlic and sesame and a yummy topping and I have found a way in to my own heart (via my stomach, when snack attack has hit!).
This recipe was developed especially for Plastic Free Pantry - a food delivery company on Waiheke Island that is forging a way for locals to receive goods without any plastic in the supply chain.
Crunchy seed crackers
by Rosamund EdwardsIf you like your crackers crunchy, seedy & a little salty, these are for you. A really easy mixture to make, they'll keep you fuelled with a variety of healthy grains and seeds in the Plastic Free Pantry seed mix. As many flat-cracker recipes use baking paper, (and biodegradable baking paper is not yet readily available), we've given a great option for rolling them out without it = plastic-free.
