Orange Kumara Bread 
Orange Kumara Bread
My sister swans around the city talking to people all day. Sales. Today she was at Pukeko Bakery and the owner there gave her some of his orange kumara bread to try. Not averse to having a post dinner non dessert snack, I took it home and threw it in the oven to heat up properly.
Bread being bread looks like bread. Very everyday. The proof is all about the taste and texture. Warmed in the oven it was still light and fluffy and kinda screamed to be filled. Lots of butter, sliced chorizo and some mustard pickle later and I was ready for snack time.
The bread was good. Really good. A little stronger in flavour than I expected but not overpowering and paired with chorizo etc, it worked well.
Lucky people in Mairangi Bay with this so close to them. Definitely a destination if I’m over that side of the world.
