Soda Bread

Another day, another bread, this time Soda Bread.  Soda Bread must be the easiest, simplest bread to make. From start to finish it can be done and dusted in 35 minutes. Lovely with oodles of butter and jam....

The Village Bakery Rye Bread


Could this be the best Rye bread......
Made without wheat or added bakery yeast, it does as it says on the tin, ok bag, and will keep you full way past lunchtime.

The Village Bakery is based in Penith near Cumbria but ship across the UK.  The bread is rather lovely and organic too. Slice in to doorstop slices and spread with a little honey, or toast with a little cheddar or...well I could go on.....
