Sea weed bread with a bit of stencil cutting

Profile picture for user gillpugh

after seeing some lovely cut/stencilling by ana a.negra, I decided to try it myself.  I've always wanted to make sea weed bread, so I thought I'd do the two together. 

I live near the coast where dulce seaweed is harvested, so I swapped some bread for fresh seaweed from the local cockle man.  The seaweed took two days to dry in my oven, then I blitzed it into flakes.  I've made a low hydration dough here as I thought the cutting will be easier, which it was.
