Monogrammed Sourdough Loaves

March 9, 2018 by Celia @ Fig Jam and Lime Cordial

I’ve been going crazy with the fish tweezers!

After my initial experiments with embossing sourdough loaves, I thought I’d try monogramming initials on. My first attempt was a bit dodgy…

…but look how it turned out!

My friend Emilie is visiting Sydney at the moment, so I made her a monogrammed loaf as well…

So much fun! If you’re trying this, I’d suggest using a lower hydration dough as the firmer texture is easier to pinch with the tweezers. I might try a more intricate pattern next…watch this space!

This is exciting! All the awards! I don’t have fish tweezers but I have tongs. Maz.

I’m hanging out for gothic script font! They have turned out really well, lots of doors opening here I think. Hope Em enjoys hers! :)
