Fishwife and Plain Grains are a Perfect Match

There’s something magical about simple ingredients coming together to create an extraordinary experience. One of my favorite discoveries lately? The perfect pairing of bread made with plain grain wheat and Fishwife tin fish. It’s the kind of combination that’s so simple, yet so satisfying, you’ll find yourself going back for more—bite after bite.

Our Plain Grain Grain Wheat berries make bread that is the ultimate canvas for flavor. Its nutty, wholesome taste and hearty texture make it an ideal companion for Fishwife’s premium tin fish. Whether you’re indulging in their smoked trout, mackerel, or Smoked Atlantic Salmon, the bread acts as the perfect base, soaking up all the delicious oils and juices while letting the fish’s bold flavors shine.

Here’s how to make the most of this pairing:

  1. Toast it up: A slice of plain grain wheat bread gets even better with a quick toast (I use my Haden toaster- Great quality and nice even toast:). The crispy edges and warm, nutty aroma provide a delightful contrast to the rich, tender fish.

  2. Add some extras: While the bread and fish are a dream team on their own, a little creativity can take things to the next level. Try a generous helping of french butter (Le Beurre Bordier I get it from my local cheese mongers at the Cheese Cave), (a drizzle of olive oil, or a smear of crème fraîche. Add some fresh herbs, like dill or parsley, for brightness, or top it off with a squeeze of lemon for a zesty kick.

  3. Get adventurous: Use your plain grain wheat bread to build open-faced sandwiches or small bites for a snack board. Layer on pickled onions, capers, or even a thin slice of avocado to mix and match flavors.

What makes this pairing so special is how it captures the essence of wholesome, uncomplicated eating just the way grandpa would have liked it! Plain grain wheat bread brings you back to basics, while Fishwife tin fish adds a touch of gourmet flair. Together, they’re a match made in foodie heaven.

So, next time you’re looking for an easy yet elevated meal or snack, make up a loaf of plain grain wheat bread and grab your favorite tin from Fishwife. Trust me, it’s a combination worth savoring!
