It's not really the subject of this recipe, but yes, you can marinate very well in yoghurt, often with spices for the tenderness and flavour of the meat

Did you comment on using yogurt as a marinade (tenderiser for meat)?

Hi, yes you can add wholewheat flour, I suggest that you start by a replacing T65 by something like 15-20% of wholewheat for a first try.
That's OK too for instant yeast, but reduce weight of yeast by 25-50% in this case.

Hi, I'm using T65 flour and would like to add some wholewheat flour to the mixture for a nice earthy taste. Would you know what is the proportion for mixing T65 and wholewheat flour?

Can I use instant yeast to replace fresh yeast?

Thanks for this useful post. Never knew this about Vitamin C; lemon juice is what I was taught but now will get some powder as I don't always have a fresh lemon at hand.

Yes, it's a question you might ask, but don't worry, you can use your organic sourdough in any bread recipe, even a non-organic one.

Thankyou for your instructions they are wonderfully clear. I am just starting to learn how to make bread so really appreciated. My question is, if i have a leaven made with organic rye or organic wholemeal wheat flour, can i use this to make bread with any flour i like, could i make a white loaf using it, or would i have to make a rye flour loaf with a rye leaven and a wholemeal loaf with a wholemeal leaven? Many Thanks

I made these and was very excited, BUT. I found that they were incredibly fatty and think it probably needs maximum 80g butter. Also, grinding up the cashews finely means you don't really get Alimuch of the flavour of them - even though I roasted them first. Next time I would reduce the butter and grind the cashews much less.
