Takakau (Maori Bread) image

Real Takakau has no rising agent (i.e. Baking Powder) just flour and water. This recipe is quite large in the quantity of flour used. It can be prepared and baked 35 minutes before a main meal is served. Or serve hot or cold with butter, jam and a cup of tea.

This bread was a bit too dense for my taste, but the flavor was good. I think I'll try using a different flour next time.

This Takakau Maori bread was a hit at my last dinner party! It had a wonderfully moist and fluffy texture, and the flavor was perfectly balanced with a hint of sweetness. I'll definitely be making this again.
