Bread at Booths Supermarket, Penrith

I am fussy about the bread I buy. This loaf called ' The Staff of Life' from Booths Supermarket in Penrith is splendid. It has a not too hard crust and a slightly sweet taste, with herbs for flavouring. The texture is close and it was risen for 20 hours.

I served the bread with some beetroot relish. Made with grated beetroot, pomegranate juice and seeds and some spring onions. Seasoned with salt and pepper. The Red Leicester cheese goes very well with it.
