Stocking the SHTF Pantry: Bread

I picked up a package of Deutsche KucheŽ rye bread at the local Aldi the other day. Amazing! They also make sunflower bread. Gonna try that this week.

Great taste and texture and a shelf life of approx. one year. Toasting just makes it better. I'm going to start stocking and rotating some loafs in my SHTF Pantry. My family loves bread.

Just thought I'd share. Carry on.

Yeah, flour has a nice shelf life, and I make a pretty good yeast dough.
I think I know which bread you are talking about, but I have never tried it. As long as it isn't 50% palm oil or hydrogenated soybeans I'll give it a shot. Also take a look at those crisp breads on the markets, basically grande sized crackers (kinda like what you get in some MRE), not too bad, and good shelf life too.

So, buy extra of everything their buddy. lol

There is also some canned bread on the market - I laid away a small box of cans of 'dark raison bread', the only flavor my local Publix Store carries. But there are others. Shelf life a year or more. Has a crumbly texture though - not a good sandwich bread!

Explore some natural alternatives...acorn flour (after leeching) ain't half bad

It's amazing some of the things you can make a good flour with.

Yep, my 'best buddy' Keith is a victim of Ciliac Disease', and cannot tolerate anything made of wheat, barley or other gluten-rich foods. Does bad things to his intestinal tract.
His good wife, Mary, has gotten very good at cooking 'gluten-free'. Even oats and cornmeal, which have no gluten themselves, are either made on the same machinery that processes gluten foods or has wheat flour mixed in - so they have to be very careful! Teriyaki is a no-no too!
But, there are good alternatives - rice flour, potato flour, garbanzo bean flour, etc. All can make some pretty good bread, though it can take some experimentation to get the texture 'right', so it isn't too dense and crumbly.

And, finding a recipe, collecting and storing ingredients, buying a grain grinder and an emergency use oven, like a Coleman propane oven,...

...will help you be prepared to bake that delicious bread whenever you choose, in emergency or non-emergency conditions.
