OUR 100% HANDMADE DOUGH – THE SECRET OF ITALIAN MASTER BAKERS

Feb 8, 2025
1 min read

Four Flours, One Tradition


Our dough is 100 % handmade, using a special blend of four carefully selected flours. Made using secret techniques handed down by true Italian master bakers, it achieves a perfect balance of lightness and character.

Pure Water for Exceptional Dough


Because every detail matters, we use filtered, chlorine-free water with a controlled pH, essential for encouraging optimal fermentation. This pure water helps preserve the natural balance of lactic acid bacteria, key to a living, balanced sourdough starter. Lightly oxygenated, it stimulates yeast activity and gives our dough exceptional lightness and digestibility.


Nutritious Dough, Carefully Made

At La Corte Segreta, we have chosen not to use tipo 00 (T45) flour, which is too refined and stripped of its essential nutrients. Instead, we have developed dough based on wholemeal flour, offering the nutritional richness of times past.


Bran, rich in fibre, aids digestion and helps you feel full for longer.

The germ, rich in vitamins B and E, essential fatty acids and antioxidants, supports energy and wellbeing.

Minerals (iron, magnesium and zinc) play a fundamental role in the body’s vitality and balance.


This careful selection gives our dough a more intense, rustic flavour, a perfect balance between crispness and softness, and better digestibility through slow fermentation.


At La Corte Segreta, we strive for excellence, combining flavour and wellbeing.
