Hi Norman My Favourite uses a mixture of brown malted, country grain, and white flour. Two chopped garlic cloves, and the freshly chopped leaves off a 5inch rosemary stem. For a 1.1/2 lb loaf I use 2.1/2 Tbs of brown sugar, 1tsp salt, 1.1/4tsps dried yeast, and 2.1/2 Tbs olive oil. plus the usual water and 2Tbs milk powder. Makes a tasty loaf. Cheers David |

I buy mine from Morrisons. Much easier. And quicker. Dave |

"L-Cysteine – an amino acid used to prolong shelf-life in products such as commercial bread – can be found in duck and chicken feathers and cow horns, but most that's used in food comes from human hair. It has been reported that most of the hair used to make L-Cysteine comes from China, where it's gathered from barbershops and hair salons. You can avoid L-Cysteine by buying fresh bread from a local baker, as it is not an additive in flour. Steer clear of fast food places such as McDonald's, Dunkin' Donuts and Burger King too, who all use L-Cysteine as an additive." Yum yum! |

Considering the amount of bread used every day I suspect that there not enough people getting hair cuts to do this. I get mine cut once a year , so you don't need to worry about me. Dave. :D |

But, the bread you buy in Morrison's is rubbish! Of course I don't know what's been added to the flour but at least I know everything else is OK. All I do know is that my bread tastes better. |
