WHY I STARTED GOOD GRAIN BAKERY

A little about me...

For the past decade, I've immersed myself in the world of gluten-free baking and cooking, creating real award-winning artisan breads free from top allergens, tricky additives and preservatives. Now I'm thrilled to share some of my favourite creations with you.

Hospitality is deeply rooted in my Persian heritage. As long as I can remember, I’ve struggled with eating out or even at home due to dietary restrictions, which made dining out with friends less enjoyable than it should have been. Despite always aspiring to be a chef, the limitations on what I could eat often made this dream seem out of reach. Yet hosting dinner parties and gathering friends in my kitchen became my passion. I baked and cooked everything from scratch, always keeping it simple and straightforward. 

My tendency to deviate from complex recipes and my preference for uncomplicated instructions shaped my approach to both baking and cooking. Fast forward 20 years, and this drive has led me to a rewarding career in the food industry.

You don’t need to be gluten-free to appreciate the great textures and tastes of our multi award winning sourdough breads. Our products are developed using REAL ingredients and applying traditional baking methods (so be prepared that for a real bread like chew with every mouthful).

My journey in the food industry, including judging food awards and running gluten-free courses, has been incredibly rewarding. These experiences have allowed me to connect with many wonderful people who share a passion for real food and want to make this knowledge accessible to everyone with a taste for ‘proper’ bread.

Inspired by my family and friends, I strive to create recipes that satisfy the taste buds and nourish the body. Join me in this delicious journey and discover the joy of wholesome, gluten-free cooking and baking.
