What's a barm cake?
Quote from: That Swan Guy on August 18, 2014, 11:04 AMWhat's a barm cake? Quote Wikipedia .....A barm cake is a type of bun with flour on top. It has a characteristically strong flavour that comes from the traditional barm leaven made from a natural leaven with the addition of hops. However, the Barm Cake is more likely made from commercial yeast today.[citation needed]The original barm cake is found in areas of Lancashire, North West England. In wider northern England, a similar bread roll would be known instead as a "breadbun", "breadcake", "bap", "cob" (a Midlands term), "teacake" (West Yorkshire/some parts of Cumbria; without currants or currant teacake with currants) or even (in the enlarged form of Tyneside) a "stotty".Chips are a popular filling, sold in most fish and chip shops in the North West of England often called simply a 'chip barm'.[1] Another popular filling in the North West, particularly Bolton, is the pasty barm.[2] Likewise in Wigan pies are a popular filling and Lenny (Badbaldie) loves them .... he reportedly has one for his breakfast , two for his lunch and replaces the pie for a pasty for his tea !! I understand your confusion Nick , as we can all see from all the pics you post up of your good lady ....... your obviously a BAP man !!
