Pan sencillo
“Pan Sencillo” is an outstanding accompaniment to anything grilled. The sourdough and the whole grain give the bread a tangy note and make the crumb fluffy and moist.
Once baked, the crust’s toasted aroma permeates the crumb, resulting in a malty, nutty smelling aroma.
Additionally, you can use a long cold method for the dough.This leads to better aroma development in the crumb while also saving you time on baking day. The dough is simply removed from the fridge, divided, twisted and baked.
