The best bread in uk
My favourite bread, taste delicious. It's great even when keeping for a while in the fridge. Definitely my only number one!
Not nice anymore, stale on delivery & underweight.
Used to be good but arrived dated same day and already hard and stale. Also the size has been reduced now only 383g in weight! Poor value. Sadly won't buy again.
Clarity needed by Tesco
I am aware that these specialty breads have to be enjoyed on the day they are baked. We received one that was Best before the day we received it. This implies to me that it was baked the day before!! The Customer Service assistant couldn't seem to understand this. Please Tesco overcome this problem by clearly stating the date it was baked. This will make it clear to everyone and also state that it should be consumed on that day.
Nothing like it used to be.
We have bought this loaf along with standard sourdough and have noticed a considerable reduction in taste and quality of both. There has obviously been a reduction in good ingredients as the real quality and sourdough taste has gone leaving it just dry and tasteless. At the end of the day as with many fresh Tesco's products they reduce quality to maintain price.

The nicest bread, best toasted, proper sourdough
I bought this in store a couple of weeks ago. It was my first in-store shop since March 2020. I wanted a white sourdough but it wad 7pm and this was the last loaf left on the shelf. Normally i dont like seeded loaves but i took it thinking better than nothing. It felt hard to touch in the packet and i thought since it was late and the last one it would probably be stale too. How wrong i was. I got home and sliced into it and whilst the outside crust was crusty and crumbled to cut as it should, the inside was perfectly soft and fluffy. But i have to say this loaf was best toasted. Somehow once toasted it doubled in deliciousness and was honestly the nicest bread i have ever had. The loaf is quite small so sliced sideways the slices were quite small, but even so it should do several people and I polished the whole thing off in one night toasted. It was absolutely delicious. The only down side was seeds falling out everywhere on the counter and in the toaster but that is true of any seeded bread. They gave it extra flavour. It is also proper sourdough loaf being only flour salt and water without yeast. The whole point of sourdough is that it is risen using a sourdough starter instead of yeast so so-called sourdough that contains yeast is not actually sourdough at all!! Its just bread! 100% recommend.
Always order this one!!
Best sourdough bread I have tasted. I use it mostly for toast it is so tasty.
Has it got smaller?
I would give this 5 stars. I love the taste and texture but ..... we have been buying the bread for over a year and it most definitely has been getting smaller. Weighed today and it was 365g, not 400g. I also seems more dense than it used to be? Please look into this as it is/was a perfect loaf.
Reduced size for same price and not as fresh.
Starting buying this bread around March 2020 time. And lasted well almost a week. Now it costs the same, it's 1/3 smaller and is stale from day 1.
Really good, especially when toasted. With cheese
Really good, especially when toasted. With cheese or marmelade, just top!
