Introducing Venerdi Organic Soudough Six Seed - Now Packed With 40% More Seeds!

One of the luxuries of winter is dipping a delicious piece of toast into steaming hot soup, or squashing a perfectly ripe avocado onto toast and topping it with slices of red truss tomatoes, whether its breakfast in the morning, lunch at work or dinner at home, there is nothing better than a great piece of TOAST!

Venerdi Organic Sourdough Six Seed is the favourite artisan bread of many Kiwis, at Venerdi they asked their customers if they thought Venerdi Six Seed needed more seeds and more flavour and the call came to “add more seeds” so immediately they substantially increased the seeds by 40%, which included increasing the ratio of Pumpkin seeds to create that delicious nutty flavour and amazing health benefits. It was also decided to reduce the yeast which allows more time for the loaf to ferment and to develop a lovely fragrant sourdough flavour.

Venerdi Organic Sourdough Six Seed is a country-style loaf packed full of six varieties of  seeds - sunflower, pumpkin, linseed, quinoa, sesame and poppy seeds which are all fantastic natural sources of energy and nutrition, this bread is organic, gluten free, dairy free, low in sugar, vegan, low in fat and made in New Zealand, what more do you need?

This is a rich sourdough toast bread with brown rice flour being fermented overnight along with the sourdough before making up a significant portion of the final dough. The seeds are also soaked overnight in water and the final dough is mixed, tinned and left to rise. The loaves are all batch baked in rack ovens, creating a simple and delicious flavoursome toast bread.

Making Gluten free bread has been Venerdi’s opportunity to peer into the health market and the health of people. As science forges forward we may come to understand our bodies in all their complexity, but for now going back to more natural foods and more traditional fermented processes seems to be the healthiest way forward. Being gluten free can be very healthy for everyone; it’s just about what you choose to eat. Not all gluten free is created equal.

In 2002, Venerdi embarked on producing spelt biscotti for farmers markets; they then created spelt breads and sold their products in organic shops and later supermarkets. They now produce a large range of gluten free breads and have a very satisfying business that benefits so many people.
