What do you get when you cross ciabatta and sourdough? A ciabattin, of course!
This combination was the basis for family business Geary’s Bakery’s first-ever branded range of loaves. The three-strong range, available in M&S, comprises White Ciabattin, Grains & Seeds Ciabattin, and Craft Beer Ciabattin using Vixen Copper Ale from Charnwood Brewery.
They’re described as a classic ciabatta mashed up with a sourdough process, baked in a tin and sliced. All three are made using a 24-hour fermentation process.
Originally named Jason’s after Geary’s master baker, who represents the fourth generation to head up the business, the range has since been renamed as Jason’s Sourdough to reinforce its sourdough credentials and heritage, noted Geary’s.
