This traditional baking method offers many benefits, most notably the development of a beautifully crisp crust \u2014 both on the top and the bottom of the loaf. Thanks to stone baking, our breads are known for their excellent flavour and balanced texture, with a fragrant, elastic crumb and a well-baked, crunchy crust. It\u2019s this technique that gives our bread its distinctive character and makes it so appreciated by lovers of authentic, artisan bread.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Sourdough \u2013 The Heart and Soul of Our Bakery<\/strong><br \/>\nOne of the greatest strengths of our bakery is our remarkable sourdough starter, which is now over ten years old. What makes it truly special is not only its long history, but above all the constant care it receives every single day. Our sourdough is refreshed and fed every three hours \u2014 day after day, week after week, month after month, year after year. This is a demanding and time-intensive process, but it is also the very heart of our bakery. The sourdough is responsible for the deep flavour, natural aroma and outstanding quality of our baked goods. More information about our sourdough can be found on our website in the section dedicated to it. We also invite you to purchase our signature sourdough starter and try baking your own bread at home.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Freshness and Quality \u2013 The Reason Behind Our Two-Day Shelf Life<\/strong><br \/>\nOur breads have a two-day shelf life due to the way our production is organised. We work in a single production cycle, which means that one batch of bread is used for shop deliveries, individual orders and local markets at the same time. We do not divide our products into separate batches, as we want to maintain full control over quality and freshness.\nWe don\u2019t want our bread to sit on shop shelves for too long. Instead, we encourage our partners to order smaller quantities more frequently, ensuring that customers always receive the freshest possible bread. This is the reason we apply a two-day shelf life. It\u2019s also important to note that every loaf is made by hand, baked and packed on the same day. This guarantees outstanding quality and freshness. Despite the short shelf life, our bread typically remains fresh for up to a week from the production date when stored properly.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Freshness Without Compromise \u2013 Baked, Packed and Delivered the Same Day<\/strong><br \/>\nAt our bakery, quality and freshness are always our top priorities. That\u2019s why we focus on baking, packing and delivering our products on the very same production day. Every loaf of bread, every roll and every pastry that reaches you has been freshly prepared in our bakery that day. This approach allows us to preserve the full flavour, aroma and natural texture of our baked goods. We are proud of the passion and care we put into our work every single day. For us, quality is the foundation, and freshness is the key to our customers\u2019 satisfaction.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fathers\u2019 Bread stands out as one of the healthiest and best-selling loaves in our range. It is made without added yeast, and the full production process can take up to twenty-four hours. The bread contains a high proportion of wholemeal flour type 2000, complemented by rye flour and a small amount of wheat flour, and is naturally fermented on rye sourdough. As mentioned, we do not use baker\u2019s yeast to speed up the process. This loaf matures slowly and naturally. While it is slightly flatter and less risen than wheat breads, this is exactly how it should be. It is distinctive, genuinely wholesome, and highly valued by our customers.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Ingredients:<\/strong> wheat flour type 750, rye flour type 720, rye flour type 1400, wholemeal rye flour type 2000, water, salt.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Allergens:<\/strong> contains gluten (wheat flour, rye flour).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Additional information:<\/strong><br \/>\n\u2022 Weight: 750g<br \/>\n\u2022 Production cycle: 24 hours<br \/>\n\u2022 Baking method: baked on a stone deck<br \/>\n\u2022 Suitable for vegans and vegetarians<\/p>\n<p><strong>Allergen and production information:<br \/>\n<\/strong><span lang=\"PL\">Our products are made in a small, artisan bakery and may contain<span class=\"apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span>traces of<span class=\"apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span>gluten, dairy, eggs, soy, nuts and other potential allergens.
