Bread

7 items

Bread is a staple food, which is popular all over the world. It is made from a dough, usually containing flour and water, and is most commonly baked in a loaf shape or separated into rolls, which are perfectly portioned for one serving.

 

Bread can come ready sliced for convenience or in a whole loaf.

 

So you can choose how thick to make the slices. Did someone say doorstop?!

 

Different varieties of bread

 

There are lots of different varieties of bread available and which one you will choose will depend on a number of factors including your tastes, your dietary requirements and what sort of nutritional profile you are looking for.

 

Common types of bread include white, wholemeal, rye and sour dough.

 

Bread can be used to make sandwiches or toast, eaten on its own with a spread, or dipped into soup.

 

There are also some breads available which are sweet, rather than savoury, such as malt loaf and these make for a delicious treat.

 

What is organic bread?

 

Organic bread is bread which has been made by natural methods in both the farming and the processing of its ingredients.

Lots of the bread products that we offer at Holland & Barrett are certified organic, including Everfresh Sprouted Wheat Bread, Biona Pumpernickel Bread and Profusion Protein Bread.

Are there any breads suitable for vegans?

 

Quite a lot of bread products are suitable for vegans since bread is traditionally made with just yeast, flour, water and salt, none of which are derived from animal products.

 

However, quite a few bread products nowadays also contain dairy products such as whey or eggs, in order to keep them fresh for longer, and to help them keep their shape.

 

Therefore, if you are following a vegan diet, it is important to ensure that you check the ingredients on any loaf of bread before you buy it.
