All is not well in British baking. It uses varieties of wheat that have been bred for high yield and baking performance with little concern for human nutrition. Described as 'fresh' when it may have been frozen and re-heated, it's sold as a loss-leader at knock-down prices which undermine what little respect it may once have commanded.

  • Best bread book ever

    This is a really useful and informative reference book about all things bread as well as being a great recipe book. I made my best ever wholemeal loaf just using the basic bread recipe and after learning everything about the constituents of good bread and good baking practices. Best bread book ever!

  • Good bread

    This is a fab book: it starts with the problems with processed bread (fairly briefly.) This inspires you to make your own, in case you weren't already hoping to do that! Lots of info is provided on making bread from scratch: such as how to cultivate your own yeast, including de-mystifying, simplifying and giving practical tips for fitting it in around life commitments. If you want to be empowered in making your own bread, this book will set you on the way.
