Historical Foods states that:</p> <p>“this whiter manchet flour was desired by the rich upper classes because it made a lighter loaf, of finer texture. It was also far more expensive than mixed grain breads because it involved additional costs and labour and because a proportion of the grain (the larger bran particles etc.) was discarded in the boulting process, so that more grain was needed to produce the same amount of flour. Therefore this whiter, finer bread was a status symbol for those who could afford it.”</p> <p>Want to give it a go? Historical Foods has translated the recipe for the modern kitchen and included photos and a video to guide you through the manchet bread making process.</p> <p>Find the recipe <a href="http://historicalfoods.com/913/manchet-bread-recipe/" target="_blank">here</a>.</p> <p>Enjoy!<br /> </p> <p><a class="a2a_dd addtoany_share_save addtoany_share" href="https://www.addtoany.com/share#url=https%3A%2F%2Fonthetudortrail.com%2FBlog%2F2011%2F02%2F03%2Fmake-authentic-tudor-manchet-bread%2F&title=Make%20Authentic%20Tudor%20Manchet%20Bread" data-a2a-url="https://onthetudortrail.com/Blog/2011/02/03/make-authentic-tudor-manchet-bread/" data-a2a-title="Make Authentic Tudor Manchet Bread"><img src="https://static.addtoany.com/buttons/share_save_120_16.png" alt="Share"></a></p>]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>https://onthetudortrail.com/Blog/2011/02/03/make-authentic-tudor-manchet-bread/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>4</slash:comments> </item> <item> <title>Recipes, Food and Cooking in Tudor England</title> <link>https://onthetudortrail.com/Blog/2010/10/15/recipes-food-and-cooking-in-tudor-england/</link> <dc:creator><![CDATA[Natalie]]></dc:creator> <pubDate>Fri, 15 Oct 2010 10:26:48 +0000</pubDate> <category><![CDATA[Life in Tudor England]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Historical Foods]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Tudor cooking]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Tudor recipes]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Tudor strawberry tart]]></category> <guid isPermaLink="false">http://onthetudortrail.com/Blog/?p=1345</guid> <description><![CDATA[Conner from Historical Foods has written an exclusive article for us here at On the Tudor Trail about Recipes, Food and Cooking in Tudor England.
