Hi there. We visited your restaurant in October 2009 and were blown away with the bread. As promised you've posted the recipe and I finally got my head in gear to have a go (time being the main issue) before I start though please can you confirm that 300g (three hundred) grams of yeast are required as this seems to be 10 times the amount used in other recipes. Also the amount of salt and sugar seems a little high. I'm familiar that quantities vary from recipe to recipe but the yeast did take me a little by surprise. I'm sure there is a perfect answer for the quanitity and can't wait to have a go at baking this bread as it was truly worth it. Much appreciated. Chris.

Hi Maureen,
For the treacle it is called Melaço de can & is available in most African supermarkets or Apolonia. The buttermilk is in Aldi beside the yoghurts in a 500ml tub called buttermilsch, the organic version is also available in Apolonia.
Best of luck & don't hesitate if you need anything else sourced.
Cheers,
Jonnie
