Zopf, Swiss Plaited Bread

Z is for… Zopf

Published on November 5, 2014 by Elizabeth Atia

Zopf, Swiss Plaited Bread

We’ve reached the end of the Alphabet Photography Project by Charly over at PODcast. What a hoot it’s been! I’ve really enjoyed sharing photos and stories which otherwise might never had been expressed and I’ve loved visiting a whole host of new-to-me blogs and commenting on their photos too.

You guys are awesome! A big thank you to Charly for organising this project.Β 

For Z I could have used a photo of the zebras I took in Edinburgh zoo this summer, or Zetland, the old name for my Shetland home. My post code begins with Z (you know you live on the edge of the world when your postcode begins with Z!) but I didn’t want to photograph my address for the world to see!

So, I settled on a photo I took of zopf, a Swiss plaited loaf, made by my neighbour earlier on in the year and shared over a delicious Shetland lamb and tattie lunch. He did give me the recipe – I really ought to make it myself as it looks and tastes so lovely!

This week for the last Alphabet Photography Challenge Z is for Zopf.

    That looks delish, and reminds me that I haven’t made a chollah bread for a while…

    And a postcode beginning with Z is something else too! πŸ™‚

    That looks so tasty — looks like it would go great with a stew, too.
    And congratulations on completing your challenge πŸ™‚

    Ooh that looks delicious! You cant beat some good bread dipped in olive oil and balsamic vinegar.

    Oh yum! It does look tasty. I really should get a bit more adventurous with my baking again. I was tempted to use Zummerset as the tongue in cheek way of saying the county we live in. It has been fun. #AlphabetPhoto

      I’ve been neglecting my baking too. I spend more time writing about food these days than I do making it! I’ve really enjoyed the Alphabet Photo Challenge – it was lovely to ‘meet’ you through it!
