These soft, overnight sourdough rolls with no added commercial yeast are the perfect breakfast or afternoon tea treat! Baked with an enriched sweet dough, a homemade wild blackberry jam and dusted with powdered sugar. I used rye sourdough starter with 100% hydration, but spelt or wheat starter would work just fine. Sourdough adds so much flavour and really brings these jam rolls up a level. You can frost them with a cream cheese glaze if desired.

This tomato couscous bowl is perfect for meal prepping and packing up for lunches. All of the components are so fresh and great on their own, but somehow taste even better when combined together in a bowl. Instead of couscous, you can use brown rice, quinoa, kamut, or buckwheat for this deliciously healthy and wholesome summer bowl.

Dressing
  • 300 ml Tomato juice
  • 1/2 tsp Ras el hanout (or garam masala)
  • 100 g Couscous
  • 200 g Sugar snap peas (or snow peas)
  • Olive oil
  • Salt and pepper
  • 2x125 g Salmon fillets
  • 1 tbsp Butter
  • 80 g Leafy greens (purslane, spinach, arugula or lamb's lettuce)
  • Cilantro leaves
  • 1/2 Red onion, sliced into rings
  • A handful of blackberries
  • 1 tbsp Pomegranate seeds
  • 2 tbsp Pan juice from frying salmon
  • 1 tbsp Olive oil
  • 1 tbsp Lemon juice
  • 1/2 tsp Dijon mustard
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  1. Place tomato juice and ras el hanout in a saucepan and bring it to a simmer. Stir in couscous, cover and leave to stand for 10 minutes, then stir with a fork to break up any clumps.
  2. Remove the end stems and the strings of each pod. Rinse and dry them. Add a tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add in sugar snap peas and sautee for 3-5 minutes until crisp-tender. Season with salt and pepper.
  3. Season the salmon with salt and pepper. Heat a tablespoon of olive oil and a tablespoon of butter in a skillet over medium-high heat until very hot. Add in seasoned salmon fillets, with the skin down, and cook, undisturbed, for 5 minutes until crispy and browned.
  4. Flip the salmon over and lower the heat to medium. Cook the remaining 3 sides until the fish is cooked through, 3 more minutes.
  5. Whisk together the pan juice, olive oil, lemon juice and mustard in a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper.
  6. To serve, divide the tomato couscous into two bowls. To each bowl, add the leafy greens, cilantro, onion rings and snap peas and top with a pan fried salmon fillet. Garnish with blackberries and pomegranate seeds. Drizzle the prepared dressing over.

Scalding, a very common process in grain preparation and cooking, is a technique involving cooking a portion of the flour (5%-20%) for a bread dough with relatively high hydration at a specific temperature which creates a gelatinized starch which can hold a lot more water than a normal bread dough mix. It also induces chemical reactions that create a sweeter flavor and make the bread more easily digestible. Usually 5% to 20% of flour are scalded one way or another. Higher percentages usually result in poor rise. Scald hydration is usually between 200% to 400%.
Scalding has been a part of bread baking for a long time, particularly in Northern Europe and Russia for many rye breads and for some wheat breads. There are different types of scalds (Scalds by gelatinisation degree, by saccharinification degree, by flavouring additives, by preservation and fermented scalds) and multiple ways to create a scald (cool down method - flour is measured, then boiling water is added and mixed in thoroughly; heat up method, like tangzhong where the flour is mixed with cold water, then slowly heated up to 65C/150F).
This bread uses a mixture of wholemeal spelt and emmer flour, which is not only very healthy, but also aromatic and very delicious. If you don't have emmer, then replace it with regular wheat or spelt flour.

Low Sugar Blackberry Jam without Pectin

Friday, July 29, 2022

Blackberries are naturally high in pectin, so it’s easy to make a simple blackberry jam with no added pectin. All you need is blackberries and a little bit of sugar or honey for blackberry jam, but a little splash of lemon juice, which is also very high in natural pectin, will help naturally set the jam and bring out the best berry flavour.
