Pecan Bread | Freeform | Sourdough

Our sourdough Pecan Bread is made using organic flour and the most natural and authentic method.

Size: Approx. 42 oz (weight may vary as each loaf is handcrafted).

This product requires 2 days to be prepared and shipped or available for pickup. If you order on Monday it will be ready to be picked up or shipped on Wednesday.

We don't offer slicing for this loaf due to its size. It requires longer time to fully settle and if we slice it within couple hours of baking its quality will be reduced. It is best to slice it at home and it will last longer and taste amazing until the last bite.

Ingredients: pecans, flour, levain (flour, water), water, and sea salt.

42 oz

We recommend keeping your bread uncovered on your counter rather than in the fridge or a plastic bag. We place our loaves cut side down, so that the crumb isn't exposed to air, while the crust slowly stales.* In a sealed plastic bag, the crust will soften, as the moisture from the bread has nowhere to go, eventually leading to a moldy loaf.

If you don't expect to finish your loaf before it stales, freeze it in a plastic bag. Slice it first, to make toasting ever more convenient.

Revive your stale loaf in the oven at 175°F for 15-20 minutes.

*Technical note: Staling has nothing to due with water loss, as bread actually only loses about 1% of water content as it ages. Rather, the gelatinized starch molecules form into crystalline regions, causing a tightening effect on the bread. By reheating it, you can temporarily disrupt the less stable regions of the chains comprising the starch molecules.
