Sourdough Bread with Red Fife Heritage Wheat

Red Fife is Canada’s oldest bread wheat. The wheat has genetic variability in the grain that allows it to adopt to diverse growing conditions. Mark Gibeau is growing Organic Red Fife wheat outside of Calgary and milling it in a stone grinder. I just got my first batch of Mark’s Red Fife and will start using it in my Whole-Wheat Sourdoughs beginning this weekend.
