A lovely bread but what is Artisan bread ? it can be confusing at what the term actually means so I had to look it up as I was not sure if it was a type of bread or the skills used to make the bread and this is what I found from jamieoliver.com website
Not all bread is created equal. You don’t need to be a baker, a foodie or even fully awake to notice that tearing into crusty, freshly-baked loaf is a lot nicer than the supermarket sliced variety – but beyond that, things can get confusing.
‘Artisan’, for example…
It’s a term you see a lot in the food world these days, along with ‘craft’, ‘fresh’ and the vaguest of all, ‘real’. They’re usually used to signify care, expertise and quality of ingredients, but currently there are no official restrictions on who can use these terms; so it’s always worth finding out the story behind the label.
At The Flour Station we use the word ‘artisan’ to sum up just how much attention we give our products; the long, traditional processes we use and the way we closely monitor every single handmade loaf, like protective parents, to make sure it comes out beautifully. In short, it’s very well-bred bread.
So artisan bread is named so because it is using great ingredients and that it is individual bread not mast produced which we tend to do when we make home made bread at home it is a rustic type of bread made with the bakers fair hands
