Bread and the baking thereof

About 10 years ago I tried baking bread for a couple of weeks. I (or it) was terrible! More recently I have started to use bread mixes with the kids so that they can have some idea of what is involved.

On Saturday I came across an organic bread mix from an Irish company so I decided to give it a try.

Sowans are based in Cork, Ireland and do a range of organic mixes. This one is yeast free, it uses bread soda. It was €3.75 so you would not use it to save money – however it made good bread and could be handy if you cannot get organic bread where you live. Which we can’t.

Their website is not up yet (www.sowansorganic.ie). They do have an email address: info AT sowansorganic.ie
