Yesterday was Lammas, the first harvest festival of the year, I must admit I knew little about Lammas until recently reading about it but we decided to mark the day by harvesting blackberries for the first time this year in a field near to our home, and we had a suprise of a few rasberries too which is the first time finding them in that spot. The field has been cut back a lot since we first went berry picking there and there isnt a lot left, but enough for a snack
Then we looked through our books for a traditional harvest loaf recipe, I had to alter it slightly as we didnt have the fresh yeast the recipe called for but it turned out delicious, if not a little funny looking, it did look like a plait before it went into the oven!
Yum!
