A good bread needs no spice. But sometimes it needs something special – a bit more depth, something out of the ordinary. That is exactly why I developed the Bread Spice Alpine. Blue fenugreek and fenugreek give the dough an aromatic warmth, fennel and caraway provide clear seasoning, coriander seed and thyme bring fine freshness. A blend that makes every bread a little more interesting.
Category: spice blend
Taste: warm, spicy, slightly tangy, aromatic
Use: sourdough bread, farmhouse bread, rolls, crispbread, grissini
Format: 40 g jar
My tip: Work it directly into the dough or toast it briefly – this way the blend develops its full aroma.
Origin & Story
Baking strongly spiced breads has a long tradition in the Alpine region. Bread spices have always been used not only for their flavour but also for their positive effect on digestibility. Especially inspiring for me was working with my favourite baker Werner Kast, with whom I developed a special bread for my two-star restaurant: a sourdough bread refined with blue fenugreek and accompanied by a homemade miso butter. The result was so convincing that I absolutely wanted to create my own line of bread spices – for special breads with an alpine soul.
Highlights
The blend combines the aromatic, spicy flavour of blue fenugreek and fenugreek with fennel and caraway, which give the bread a pleasant, warm note. Coriander seed provides a harmonious rounding, while thyme adds a subtle herby freshness. Finely ground, ideal for baking directly into sourdough or farmhouse breads. The exact recipe remains my secret.
Quality
All ingredients are mixed fresh, single-batch and exclusively by hand. I use only all-natural ingredients – completely free of additives, technical aids, artificial flavours or anti-caking agents.
The best spices have always inspired me to create new dishes. Only the best is good enough to reach the very top – for you, in your kitchen. 100% natural. Just the way I use it myself, every day.
Tip from Tobias Funke
For a particularly aromatic result, I recommend mixing the spice blend directly with the flour or toasting it briefly before mixing it in. This way the spices develop optimally and give your home-baked bread the typical, rustic note of alpine bread specialities.
