Bread quirks. Of crusts.
Warning: Random. Carry on. Nothing to see here. (My journal just felt neglected.)
On basic sliced breads (white, whole wheat, etc) I dislike or even hate the crusts and eat them just because I'm too lazy to peel them off. I will nibble away the crust first to get it over with. I eventually trash the heel slices.
On cakey type breads I like the part that was exposed to air when baking the absolute best and save it for last, dislike the edges that touched the pan. (Also nibble that first to get it over with)
On sourdough/french bread and others of that ilk I adore the crusts all around and my favourite chunk is the 'heel'.
I know I'm not alone in this.
After all they market 'crust-less' bread loafs for kids (which seems to me like just asking for the bread to go stale faster, but that's neither here nor there)
Bakeries and the like tend to carry muffin tops, which means vast majority cakey bread with air exposed surface.
And.. the other is just too yummy for me to be alone on.
I suspect I'm fare more quirky in that I actually noticed my preferences there.
And besides, I'm certain I'm weirder in things like: my utter favourite part of pies is the crust. I would be happy baking a basic pie crust and nomming it. *pathetic*
Any other quirky semi-crust addicts in different ways? Anyone shaking their head and facepalming at me?
If the later. I warned you to move along. ;P (Not that this point is valid since I fit that second group and I wrote this)
