This bakery has been open since June 2017. Different types of bread are made from farm flour.
The mill of the Bergerie
The wheels are adjusted to grate the grain without grinding and without heating. The process takes longer, but the nutritional qualities and flavour of the grain are preserved. A sieve is used to adjust the blutage of the flour (the amount of bran in the final product).
The bread
Mike, the baker of Fournil de la Bergerie, applies Christian Rémésy’s method for the bread of la Bergerie, which involves a very long fermentation at room temperature with very little leaven (1g per kilo of flour instead of 150g usually). With 15 to 20 hours of growth, we obtain a bread that has more flavour, less acidity and can be kept even longer than traditional sourdough bread.
The bakery
In addition to the classic wheat breads (country bis and wholemeal bread), Geoffrey works on the production of special breads that will surprise you with their originality!
