The top bread thread

Assume we're all in agreement?

1. Focaccia 

2. Sourdough 

3. Naan, specifically the garlic variety 

4. Ciabatta 

5. Brioche 

[swannymere]

1. Naan (any)

2. Pão de Queijo (Brazilian Cheese Bread)

3. Baguette (made in France)

4. Crumpets

5. British Bloomer

Sourdough only good for toast, brioche is a crime against bread and Foccacia is too modern.

Can't beat a buttered Dutch crunch with some freshly made thick Pumpkin soup mid-winter......

Brioche is a cake, sourdough is just "no", and I can't stand garlic, so sorry, we are not all in agreement.

Agreed, other than garlic naan, which is an essential with a ruby.

I'm convinced that people that feel they should like Sourdough, it's just horrible.

Yep, Brioche is a cake, and why people stuck a burger between it I'll never know. You wouldn't do it with a doughnut so why with Brioche. 

Give me a crusty loaf or roll and that'll do for me.

Sourdough is meant to be more healthy isn’t it? It’s alright but it’s part of this hipster artisan bread bullshit fad

i don’t eat a lot of bread other than getting a sausage or bacon bap at kids football however a nice slice of toast sometimes with a good think slab of butter can be nice. Or a baguette with some nice meats, cheese and salad

Nooo.. /Sue weeps into her sourdough culture/.

Foccaccia modern? It's the original hearth bread!

Brioche is great for bread and butter pudding.

Poor love not liking garlic, my condolences..

Can I also suggest pizza, which is basically bread, but it needs a long fermentation and must be wood fired. I'll wait until the weather is better and not so windy as the smoke inevitably follows you around..

Keema naan for me, not a fan of the garlic.

In the last couple of weeks,  I picked up fig, apricot and cranberry sourdough and a cranberry, raisin and cashew bloomer from Tesco.

Both lovely, and nice with salads or pretty much anything.

Time and a place so cannot rank. Don’t know anyone who puts bacon in a Naan for breakfast. 
Sourdough overrated. 

Our local Sainsbury’s seems to consistently overbake their bread which seems baffling that not been addressed. Maybe I need to up the protest outside head office until I get heard?

And also lovely to take on a picnic to a demonstration atop your bandwagon. 🙂

Precisely, it's a cake and goes well in a pudding. It is not bread.

Garlic should be left to the French. Horrible stuff.

Warburtons White, or if I'm feeling healthy then their best of both.  End of the day, it's bread. 

Curious to know which water people prefer though.

Pah! Pretentious middle class crap.  And most of it is probably foreign.  Wouldn't even make my top 10.
