Pure Bred Sandwiches

I said in this post that there are various criteria I use to judge good bread. Today I made some Pure Bred sandwiches.

The sandwiches were good, but probably just not quite as these egg and watercress sandwiches I bought in Marks and Spencer. These must now be the Gold Standard for gluten-free sandwiches.

The Pure Bred bread has a similar flavour to the bread Marks use in their sandwiches, so could it be they are thinking on similar lines with respect to the flour used?

So would I use Pure Bred gluten-free bread in the future in preference to the Genius I normally use?

Genius has one good point and one fault.

The current formulation of Genius doesn’t seem to go mouldy, as quick as it did when first launched and usually a loaf is still edible a week after purchase.

But it does seem to have a tendency to have large holes in the loaf.

The Pure Bred was consistent throughout and it lasted as long as I needed it too.

If Pure Bred was available in my local Waitrose, I’d buy it in preference to Genius, which is not sold there. This would be mainly to avoid going to Sainsburys to have a second shop for just bread.

If Pure Bred was avaiable in Sainsburys, then I would always buy bread there and buy whatever I fancied that day.

  2. I’ve only had the bread in their new sandwiches, which are great. I’ll check out my M&S.

    Strangely, C and I used to shop in the small Islington Branch, when we lived in our flat in the Barbican, as in the early 1970s, it was the only supermarket, you could walk to.
