Bageri Säf

For Johan Säf, it’s completely natural to bake organically — as well as important, he says, for the sake of the environment, producers, and customers. He believes that organic grains are best for sourdough and consequently create tastier bread. A dedication to organic ingredients applies to most things used in the bakery; everything from flour, milk, butter, and cream to eggs, seeds, nuts, and fruits. Locally sourced also weighs heavily in choosing ingredients. He picks plums, blueberries, raspberries, strawberries himself for all food production. The grain for the flour is grown, harvested, and ground in Halland. And the dairy products are purchased from Hjordnära. The quality of the ingredients is ensured through a constant dialogue with the mills since the flour changes and alters its character all the time. Säf Bakery serves brewed coffee from Balck Coffee in Kalmar and Solde Coffee Roastery (Solde Kaffebar & Rosteri) in Malmö. In addition, Säf sells its own lemonade and apple cider from the Kitchen Garden in Falkenberg, which uses its own apples. The tea is organic and purchased from Åsö.
