Anadama bread

Anadama bread (/əˈnædəmə/ bread) is a traditional bread from the New England region of the United States, particularly popular in the state of Massachusetts.

Etymology

The origin of the name "Anadama bread" is uncertain. One popular story involves a fisherman from Rockport, Massachusetts, who was allegedly so frustrated with his wife's cooking that he mixed cornmeal and molasses into his bread dough, exclaiming, "Anna, damn her!" However, this story is likely apocryphal.

Ingredients

Anadama bread is made from a combination of wheat flour, cornmeal, and molasses. These ingredients give the bread its distinctive sweet and slightly nutty flavor. Some variations may also include butter, yeast, and salt.

Preparation

The preparation of Anadama bread involves mixing the ingredients together to form a dough, which is then left to rise. After rising, the dough is shaped into a loaf and baked until golden brown. The resulting bread has a dense, moist texture and a rich, sweet flavor.
