Flour Water Salt is a bakery and cafe in South Nowra, easy to miss in the commercial back streets but worth the short detour off the Princes Highway. The bakery floor is big and busy, and glass windows let you watch the bakers at work while you wait.
Sourdough is the heart of it, made the slow way with natural leaven, and people also talk about the pies, including a pork and fennel sausage roll that gets plenty of praise.
