If you want to try something different, eat healthier, while not compromising on deliciousness, Flour Power Bakeria is an apt place to visit. One will get a wide selection of wild yeast (sourdough) products from country loaf bread to croissants, pizza, pies, sandwiches and other pastries here. They love to experiment often and so it is not too hard to find something different in this place.
Their sourdough pizzas with seasonal toppings and bread are the best sellers. The unique point about them is that they hand mix the dough which is slow-fermented and organic. They extract yeast from edible plants and fruits (wild yeast) and use it to rise the dough, which eliminates the use of chemical yeast. Their grains, millets and other ingredients are freshly milled. The price range of their items is approximately between Rs.200 to Rs.750.
Valentina from Flour Power Bakeria says: “Working with sourdough it is all about challenges and rewards: the outcome of sleepless nights and hard work is a product with health qualities difficult to find in today’s market. The bread has a will of his own and you need to let nature do its course, by observing the dough and understanding her language. Ultimately, there are only three ingredients (water, salt and flour) and the yeast and bacteria are the main stars. Experience, failure and wish of perfection keep us going.” She also revealed that working with wild yeast in tropical weather it is even more challenging as fermentation needs temperature-controlled rooms and humidity does not help.
