3 Dough-lightful Fillings to Incorporate into Baking Your Sourdough Bread

Sourdough bread is loved for its tangy flavour and chewy texture and is an increasingly beloved staple in households.

Bespoke Bread, a provider of sourdough baking classes in Singapore, explores the world of delightful fillings, where every swirl and combination elevates your bread from good to exceptional! Prepare to roll up your sleeves—and your dough—as we embark on this dough-licious journey guaranteed to impress your friends and family! Level up your sourdough bread with these ingredients:

Miso butter swirl 

One of the most innovative fillings to incorporate into your sourdough bread is the miso butter swirl. This unique combination marries the rich umami flavours of miso with the creamy indulgence of butter, creating a perfect harmony that complements the sourness of the bread. 

To whip up this delightful bread filling, blend softened butter with a spoonful of miso paste until creamy and dreamy. Sprinkle a generous serving of Furikake and seaweed for added depth of flavour. The tanginess of the sourdough offers a refreshing contrast to the savoury richness of miso, while the butter adds a luxurious melt-in-your-mouth texture. The end result is a bread so delicious, you’ll be saying, “Miso happy I tried this!” 

Hojicha and sesame symphony

Prepare your taste buds for a journey inspired by the serene tea ceremonies of Asia with the hojicha and sesame symphony. Hojicha, a roasted green tea, brings deep, earthy notes to your sourdough, reminiscent of cosy tea sessions and tranquil moments. The toasty aroma of roasted tea leaves mingles with the nutty crunch of sesame seeds, creating a harmonious blend of flavours. 

Whether enjoyed with a dollop of honey-infused butter, paired with your favourite savoury spreads, or relished on its own, this dough-lightful fusion invites you to enjoy each slice mindfully, paying homage to the time-honoured art of tea appreciation.

Black garlic

Looking to infuse your sourdough with something that's as delightful as it is nutritious? Enter black garlic, a culinary gem celebrated in Asian cuisine for its unique flavours and health benefits. Not only does it add layers of savoury sweetness to your bread, but it’s also packed with antioxidants like S-allyl-cysteine (SAC) and allicin, acting as a shield for your body, fighting inflammation and boosting your immune system.  So, as you knead and bake, let the aromatic dance of black garlic whisk you away on a flavorful journey. We’re certain this dough-lectable creation will have you reaching for seconds—or even thirds!
