Sourdough (desem)
In their words · translated
“Traditioneel en langzaam gefermenteerd zuurdesembrood. Daar nemen we de tijd voor. We gebruiken geen broodverbeteraars. Alleen de beste granen, onze eigen desemstarter, water en zout.”
Traditional, slowly fermented sourdough bread. We take our time over it. We use no bread improvers. Only the best grains, our own sourdough starter, water and salt.
“Het deeg mag bij ons 24-48 uur rijzen.”
With us the dough is allowed to rise for 24 to 48 hours.
Oscar is a sourdough bakery and café on the Grote Houtstraat in Haarlem, one of several Oscar shops, each with room to sit down for coffee.
The bread is made only from grain, the bakery's own sourdough starter, water and salt, with no bread improvers. The dough rises for 24 to 48 hours, longer than most bakers allow, and is then baked in an electric stone oven. Besides bread they make croissants and filled rolls, and the shop also sells jam and peanut butter.
The Grote Houtstraat shop is open every day, from 7:00 to 18:00 Monday to Saturday and from 7:00 to 17:00 on Sunday.
The flour comes from French and Dutch millers the bakery knows, though their website does not name them.
