We popped in to Uncle Henry’s at Grayingham in Lincolnshire as we needed a nice artisan loaf for our planned lunch of cheese and pickles, and we plumped for what was labelled a “Sourdough” loaf.
Back at the ranch we were a little disappointed on slicing said loaf as it was the least sourdoughy we’ve ever encountered. The crumb was tight and not at all open as it should characteristically be and the crust, if you could call it that, was soft to the touch – no crust at all!
I said to Mrs Wanderer that maybe the loaf had been mislabelled and she quipped in return that I was being overly generous!
A disappointing loaf to say the least from what is normally an excellent farm shop.
