Just for a bit of fun I tried to recreate something like @unclepuncle 's loaf but fell at the first hurdle - I didn’t have any Malt Flour

So I used Canadian White and some Rye Flour. High (77%) hydration and lightly seeded (linseed & poppy) so slightly different ingredients but I think it looks vaguely similar - if you squint (a lot)

Also, it isn’t sourdough either but made with a 30 hour poolish. So not really a copy in any respect but it smells great and I will be tearing into it with some nice butter, ham and cheese etc. later.

The rye flour certainly gives it a lovely flavour, crust is nice and crunchy and I’m really pleased how it turned out, despite it being nothing like @unclepuncle ’s loaf :grinning:

Still messing with the khorasan flour and diastatic malt

The taste is really starting to come through

That last one was so tasty I made another. Slightly more rye flour (15%) and slightly higher hydration (~80%) which gave it a bit more oven spring.

B&M’s ingredients list is actually very straightforward. It contains whole wheat flour, water, molasses, dextrose, rye flour, whey, corn meal, baking soda, buttermilk, salt, and corn oil.

Ffs - straightforward :crazy_face:

Oof :grimacing:

That’s a very strong argument for making it yourself.

We did, dad still does. Its probably no worse than the typical loaf of Kingsmill mind. But it was all very sweet.

As the article points out, “bread” is really a misnomer. I’ve only ever eat it a couple of times, and it is like a bran muffin.

I will take your word for it :disappointed:

Actually, it really isn’t great. Just one of those weird regional foods that people who grew up on it crave
