Barm cakes

[Canardly]

Int' North one can buy oven bottom baps otherwise known as Barm Cakes. They are incredibly rare darn sarf where the preference seems to be for frothy woolly bread rolls. Why is this?  Crinkly always uses Barm Cakes for sarnies to max advantage.

I've heard of oven-bottom muffins. Mrs. Wow's relatives swear by this sort of thing.

I make them often

The reason they are called cakes though it is 'bread' is where you use water in bread, barm cakes or oven bottom muffins water is replaced with milk and eggs

500gram flour
yeast / suger / salt
250ml milk
2 eggs

before they go in the oven after they have risen

Glaze with egg milk mix and poke your finger in the middle of each muffin

You still get tiny bread rolls down south then ? ha ha

Barm cakes are the best for sarnies. Mind you if you are really really hungry you need to go a bit further north and investigate the stottie.

Is this the right place for a savaloy dip?

I'm given to understand that oop narth, it's considered quite romantic for a chap to shove his pork saveloy between a young lady's stotties.

She'd be a big lass if she could deal with two stotties.

The best we can manage in Essex is a huffer.

No, I've never heard of bottom baps (and it stretches one's imagination to the limits).  Have vaguely heard of barm cakes.

BTW, neither "barm" nor "bap" is recognised by FireFox's spill chuck.
