Philip Harben continues to provide a modern guide to traditional English food.
Philip Harben's subject this week is bread. He shows how modern machine-made bread has evolved from an infinite variety of regional variations of the home-made loaf.
He encourages the housewife of today to make her own bread and, with John Fothergill, well-known inn-keeper from the Midlands, shows how to make a simple kind of soda loaf.
