SAVOUR & SIP

KNOW YOUR DOUGH NEW KIDS ON THE BLOCK Something exciting is coming to the Cambridge and Saffron Walden street food scene. Launching this month, Nomadough offers sourdough flat wraps loaded with tasty and nutritious fillings. Find flat iron steak strips with pomegranate salsa, pickled cabbage and sweet chilli chutney, or curried chicken with sliced cucumber, coriander chutney and shredded coconut dressing. Owners Libby and Alex have long dreamed of owning a food truck, combining shared loves for nomadic lifestyles, good food and local produce. “Alex and I met when we were both working in the yachting industry on the same boat; I was head chef on board and knew I wanted to start my own business back home,” says Libby. “I grew up on a farm just outside Saffron Walden, so I’ve always had a love of field-to-plate and supporting British farmers.” After attending an Off the Beaten Truck and Foodpark event, Libby was inspired to start her own venture with Alex. “I’ve been obsessed with bread since working on the boat, making fresh loaves for the crew every day. Our starter sourdough is now three years old and has travelled the world with me,” she beams. “The idea for sourdough flat wraps came from hating how much starter gets thrown away during the baking process. I began to make something out of it and the flat wraps were born! “All dough will be made by us – along with the sauces, pickles and garnishes,” adds Alex. “We are making modern British food, taking influences from around the world and bringing them to our menu.” Follow @nomadough on Instagram to keep up to date with the latest.
