Mixed seeds are without doubt the best way to give your sourdough an amazing flavor boost. The toasted smell from the outside and the chewy delicous taste inside is simply incredible. It's very handy to keep a jar with mixeds seeds available at all times. For these breads I used pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, flax seeds and sesame seeds. Minimal preparation needed. No soaking, no roasting. Just have your levain ready to go!

Fold three times about 1 hour apart. The seeds will incorporate into the dough.
