I love your website. Thank you for sharing your adventures with bread. I started my first apple levain for sourdough. 10 days waiting seems a loong time. All enthused I saw this recipe and thought I’d take up the challenge. After many happy hours in the kitchen following your careful directions we enjoyed lovely (extra) french baguettes as well as top-billing glamorous snowflakes (x2). The Lemon, Ginger & Anise combination seemed perhaps a risk, but nothing to fear, the delicate flavours in the buttery smooth textured crumb taste fantastic! Thanks again.

I’ve had my eye on this recipe for a while and have been meaning to try them. As today is Epiphany and I told my German husband that I would make him a Dreikoenigskuchen, I decided that I would try this recipe with a couple of tweaks. The tweaks being the addition of 100 g of raisins (soaked in a bit of rum, of course), the substitution of cardamom for the anise seed, orange syrup for the lemon and I used fresh yeast. Fantastic! The texture was beautiful! Absolutely lovely. Although, I think I would add more peel, orange and lemon next time. Thank you for such a wonderful recipe.
