Down here on the lower east side of New York, our slavic neighbors make a light egg bread called Challah ... the ch is pronounced in the back of the throat, as if you were hocking up a gob of lougie to spit at the baker (which during the 1930's many of these bakers where doing to my mum's people... but that is another story). Challah is very nice, sort of sweet bread, very good with vodka and borsht as you all will find after the revolution (again, another story). Up in Canada, among Innu, a Native hunter/gatherer people I works with (and yet another story) they make a bread called Banoch bread. They told me the Scotish trappers taught them to make it, but they don't know what the word means. I told them it means white, or whitish of white... white bread. Being out of bread and storries,
I remain
Yours in the One Big Union
Larry (sometimes called judge whitebread... you guessed it... another story)
