Best Salt Bread Barbados Recipes
SALT BREAD (BARBADOS)
This recipe is from week 23 of my food blog, "Travel by Stove." I am attempting to cook one meal from every nation on Earth, and Barbados is my 23rd stop. This is one of the only non-sweet breads served on the island. It is delicious freshly baked with a little bit of butter.

Steps:
- Put all the ingredients except the water into a large bowl and blend until you get fine crumbs.
- Add the water and knead for two minutes, then let rise until doubled in size.
- Punch down and divide into four equal portions. Brush with water and turn over. Let rest for 15 minutes, then turn over again and let rest for another 15 minutes.
- Sprinkle the tops of the rolls with flour and place them in a preheated 325 degree oven for 15 minutes or until golden (mine took more like 25 or 30 minutes, so make sure you watch them). This is a really soft bread, so your rolls aren't going to sound too hollow when you knock on them. Go by color instead.
BAJAN SWEET BREAD (BARBADOS)

Yield 2 loaves
Number Of Ingredients 14
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350*F and lightly grease a bread pan. The original recipe calls for 2 bread pans, but the bread doesn't rise at all so it bakes nicely in one pan.
- In a mixer cream together the brown sugar, shortening and butter.
- Add flour, salt, grated coconut, raisins, cherries, nutmeg and mix well.
- Stir in almond extract, evaporated milk, and water, until a firm dough is formed. (You may need to add additional water.).
- Split the dough evenly between the two pans, and use a knife to cut a diagonal criss-cross pattern on the top of each loaf. Sprinkle 1 tbsp turbinado sugar over the top of each loaf.
- Bake for about 1 hour, until a skewer inserted into the center of the loaves comes out clean (Or a digital thermometer reads 190*F.) Cool completely in the pans before removing.
