Twist bread (Chnuspi)

by | Jul 13, 2015 | Bread

Visiting Switzerland years ago, Basel's bakery Zoller brothuus was a place that inspired me. Now gone, I recently longed for their chewy, seeded twists called Chnuspi. Originally yeasted, I made a batch from sourdough, and borrowed shaping techniques borrowed from both Bouley Bakery and Amy's Bread, where I'd done some short stages way back.
