RE: Making Soup and Bread

in Foodies Bee Hive11 days ago

That looks seriously nice !

If you want to make bread the easy way, look up the Grant Loaf, created during WW2 by Doris Grant. Should work out much cheaper than buying a mix. It's what my grandmother used to make - she'd do batches of about 24 loaves, freezing most of them until needed.

It's a really tasty wholemeal loaf, quite dense and ideal for toast or dipping in soup. It also has the huge advantage that it's a no-knead bread, you just stick it in a really warm airing cupboard for a bit to rise, then bake it. Most recipes say to use muscovado sugar or honey in it, I can assure you the honey version is much nicer 😁

Thanks for the idea, I'm going to look up a recipe for this and give it a go, I've never heard of it before but when I make it I'll be sure to document the process and see how I get on with it.

I'll 100% go for the honey version.
