\"New<\/p>\n

“It has been well established that our olfactory sense can trigger vivid memories we thought were buried beyond recall. For me, one whiff of fresh baked New Brunswick brown bread, ushers in wonderful memories of Christmas at my Grandparents and the amazing dinners my Grandmother prepared with apparent effortlessness.<\/p>\n

Her recipe had remained a closely guarded secret for many years, but before she passed away she decided it was time to share her brown bread with the world. The recipe had not been easy to come by. She learned it from my great, great grandmother who ran a little tea room in the backwoods of New Brunswick in the 1930\u2019s. A fresh slice brown bread was a favourite of the many travellers who happened to stop in as they travelled the old highway on their way through the Maritimes.<\/p>\n

When my grandmother asked my great, great grandma for the recipe she was told that she didn\u2019t actually have one. She made it so often that she didn\u2019t really think about what she was doing. So one afternoon my grandmother watched attentively as she prepared a fresh batch and studiously wrote down all the steps and ingredients.<\/p>\n

Now almost 100 years later we are proud to offer it to everybody this holiday season.”<\/p>\n
