Vinschgauer Bread Spice Blend – Spicy, Aromatic and Traditional
The original bread seasoning for authentic South Tyrolean Vinschgauer bread and hearty rye breads. Our bread spice blend combines the classic four spices – coriander, caraway, aniseed and fennel – into a harmonious, intense composition. It gives bread an unmistakable spicy note and creates a wonderful aroma that recalls traditional South Tyrolean and Alpine bakeries.
Vinschgauer Bread Spice Blend – What Makes It Special
Our blend consists of purely natural premium-quality ingredients: coriander, caraway, aniseed and fennel. All spices are gently dried and coarsely ground to optimally preserve the essential oils so they can fully unfold their aroma.
Unlike many ready-made bread spices, our mixture is well-balanced and not overpowering. It enhances the characteristic flavour of rye and sourdough breads without dominating them. Ideal for Vinschgauer bread, farmer’s bread, pumpernickel and hearty speciality breads.
How Does Vinschgauer Bread Spice Blend Taste?
Spicy-warm, slightly sweet and harmonious. Caraway provides the typical hearty note, fennel and aniseed add a fine sweetness and freshness, while coriander contributes depth and a light citrus note. Together they create a rounded, aromatic profile that makes bread particularly digestible and flavourful.
