PostPosted: Sat Jul 01, 2017 9:50 am 
It is a real bummer having to travel to Guisborough to buy proper bread, the Brickyard bakery does beautiful stuff, had a sandwich there on Weds, Brie, walnut and grape on a toasted stottie, had to be in the top 3 sandwiches ever consumed.

If we had an artisan bakery in the town, would the upper echelons of the population purchase real bread or is it a one off and back to processed shite sctatchinghead

Brie, walnut and grape on a toasted stottie.

I could eat that every day.

I suggest you open an artisan bread shop in Greatham, your guarantedd at least one customer a day.

You could name it " Greatham Partisans " :-D bbolt

I largely live without bread. Does nowt for me except freshly made Arabic style flat breads and even then it's a rarity.

Bread just takes up room that could be used for nicer food.

If I could get Warburtons in the shop over the road or trek into town for some artisan loaf, I'm almost always going to go for the Warburtons. Now if Mr Butt started an artisan bread delivery service on the other hand...


I would agree with you but then we both would be wrong :snooty:

First spotted 'artisan' on a bakery sign going through Grange over Sands. Had to go in and buy some. Nice bread, but banging the word 'artisan' translates to ... more expensive bread. Every decent baker should be a master baker... Artisan is just so fancy Dan poncey.

More expensive because it is made by hand, every piece is hand rolled, labour intensive and the result is superb bread, peasants keep to your machine made, preserved shite, I will travel 40 minutes for quality every day, the toast it makes is wonderful and crunchy :animals-pig:

An artisan bakers has recently shut down near where I live in Newcastle. Nothing wrong with the produce but at £4.50 a loaf they priced themselves out of it.

I went to Belgium last summer and there are loads and loads of small bakeries. In the residential I stayed there were 4 within a few hundred meters. All were reasonably priced, some even cheaper then the supermarkets but far better quality regardless so of course I used them.

It's double edged sword really, because they aren't particularly convenient or cheap here, not many people use them. But by not using them, that creates the niche that allows them to justify the high price.

I love specialist breads but when they are preservative free they usually turn to stone overnight.

£2 is an average price for an artisan loaf, sourdough usually a bit more but when that dark crunchy exterior makes way to that crumbly interior, oh boy, a nice cheese and ham to go with it, just thinking about makes me drool and get a half lot on :oops:

I like real bread , I like quality anything generally , but I'm with Snowy on this one, in relation to the word ARTISAN. Its the same with CRAFT beer , overpriced bollox. I was in pub the other day, drinking a pint of real ale for £3.30 and lad behind bar held up a bottle of beer, somewhere between pint and half pint in size , Gueze I think it was called , and asked if I had tried it before, it was a Saison beer ( Sour ). Now I like to try different things and occasionally will buy a bottle foreign beer. I asked him how much it cost , he replied £6.80 , I told him where to stick it.

FFS! £6.80 , the world has gone mad.

Beans or Ground ?

Tip: Don’t re-boil kettle water as it loses its oxygen, and oxygen is what’s needed to percolate the coffee grounds. Use fresh water every time.

If you like a strong coffee, Aldi Java, strength 5 is really nice and at 1.99 a steal, they do a cheaper one but this is lovely ground coffee and tastes cracking in a top of stove Italian pot.

Spot on Mr Horden. Decent real ale has been good for years and reasonably priced. A few years ago 'craft' beer came along and was eagerly lapped up by a gullible audience. Overpriced, poorly made, but put it in a fancy wrapper, and the hipster doyles are willing to part with their cash. Whenever I see 'artisan', 'craft' and 'traditional' my guard is up.

There is a bakery near me which has made bread and cakes the same way for generations, but thanfully they don't do the clever-cuunt chalkboard writing thing. One day they will rebrand and probably double their prices, but for now it is spot on.

FCUK me.

Mr Monkeybutt, make your own bread in your own oven. I'll give you a recipe, and even a sourdough starter I've fed for yonks.

Mr Yubep, next time you see them in Aldi buy a Coffee machine circa £50, that when you steam the Milk goes shhhhshshshshshsh (just like Cafe's when I was a kid). My current favourite is Molten Magna from Morrisons, as I like strong coffee.

Real ale?

Now we are talking.

My favourite pastime is to accidentally miss my connecting train at York to spend a bit of time in my my favourite pub.

The York tap.

I will only drink real ale. You can keep all your John smiths and camerons trophy etc etc Crap.

If you join CAMRA, which cost me £17.00 ( pensioner!) you get all kinds of discounts plus £20.00 worth of 50p off a pint vouchers for all Weatherspoons pubs. I,ll be spending some more of mine in Keswick next week. Used some in King Johns last night....no brainer! :-D

I know I can make bread at home, but I can kill a couple of hours having a drive out and paying somebody for their trouble, anyway a sourdough is like an 18 hour operation to do it justice.

Imo, It is too popular and accessible on a weekend, being the first pub after the station or the last before the station, so usually rammed, though It now has an extension, that creates a little bit more room. Better during the week when its quieter

We buy one loaf of bread a week. By the follwing friday there usually still half of it left.

It goes in the bin.

If I told my wife I was going to drive for an hour to get some bread, she would either kill me, or get the men in white coats to take me away.

I would suggest you go and a get a job, as you must have retired way too early.

Orange Tango? Used to love apple/cherry tango. Not had any for ages.

Used to love Cherry 7UP an all but the only ever place I saw it was that Newsagent on York Road (Maynards was it?) Unfortuantly I dont visit the town centre anymore due to it being a shit hole so have to do without.

Apple Tango is lush like.

Orange Tango? Used to love apple/cherry tango. Not had any for ages.

Used to love Cherry 7UP an all but the only ever place I saw it was that Newsagent on York Road (Maynards was it?) Unfortuantly I dont visit the town centre anymore due to it being a shit hole so have to do without.


Yeah, orange, sugar free one to be exact. I did have a can of diet citrus coke in my drawer as well, but I gave someone else that, which I'm kind of regretting actually.

Irn Bru is the best soft drink though, as I'm sure everyone is aware. Irn Bru Xtra is pretty close to the real thing for any diabetics or weight watchers out there too.


I always get a can of Irn Bru when I go to Aberdeen with work to fit in with the locals. Generally get a 'buttery' to go with it aswell.

Ages since I had any but I did have some Appletiser at the weekend which is probably pretty much the same.

Appletiser and vodka would be decent I reckon.

Got a sourdough and a brown, had a stromboli and salad, nice strong latte and a chocolate twist, nice trip out in lashing rain, how is work PJ?


You bought Sourdough, when I have a free recipe/starter for it? You drove in lashing rain for it? You had a strong warm milky drink (that is believable)? Then you expect people to believe you had a salad? :razz: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

I challenge anyone to start a duller thread than this with a less important subject matter than fucking bread, sorry real fucking bread (non of this stuff just prentending to be bread sitting on Supermarket shelves)

It's not an easy challenge I tell you.

It would possible be slightly less dull, but only just, if we were talking about the 1980's scouse sitcom.
