BREAD SOUP and to follow AMERI­ CAN MUFFIN GATEAU with Oddic’s Quality Bakers


ALTHOUGH there is not an outlet in Clitheroe, everyone has heard of or seen Oddie’s, the family bakers, which has 14 shops throughout East Lancashire Everyone thinks of Oddie’s as a Nelson


company because that is where the bake­ house and offices are, however, it turns out that the Oddie family come from Riming- ton, where they had a farm. There are apparently generations of


Oddie’s buried in the cemetery a t Gisburn. William Henry Oddie, who founded the bakery 100 years ago this year, turned his back on farming and left Rimington to train as a baker in Accrington. After he had completed his apprenticeship, he went to work in Colne, two of his sisters were already working in a bakery there. After marrying he bought a terrace in Primet Bridge, Colne, and turned the cellar into a bakehouse and the front room into a shop, called W.H. Oddie’s, and began trading. , The company is now run by Lara Oddie, ~


who is a mum of two small girls and great- granddaughter of W.H. Oddie and her father Bill.

with MARCIA MORRIS Wines made in paradise wine talk


WHILE it is undoubtedly Sauvignon Blanc that put New Zealand on the international wine map, , there are a host of other white grape varieties being made in this winemakers’ para­ dise. The “aromatics” do partic­ ularly well. Gewurtztraminer, Pinot Gris, Viognier and my selection this week, the uncrowned queen of grapes - Riesling MONTANA RIESLING 2004


comes from the northern tip of South Island, Marlborough. Its cool, sunny climate is perfect for ripening the Riesling to get more balanced flavours than its Ger­ manic counterpart. Unlike the archetypal German Riesling, this one is not sweet. I t has a pale straw colour, a nose of ripe baked apples with a balanced acidity and richness of fruit on the palate, limes and apples inter­ mingle with citrus overtones fin­ ishing vvith a crisp freshness. This comes in a screwcap


(Stelvin) to preserve all the intense freshness of this grape. Available from Tesco and Somer- field for £5.99 and ideal with Chinese or Thai food, try it with crispy roast duck - just perfect. Staying in Marlborough and


to pair the white, I have selected one of my favourite grape vari-

eties and one which is impressing me a t all price levels from New Zealand. STONELEIGH PINOT NOIR 2004, again under Stelvin, is priced a t £7.99, but worth much more. The free-draining stony


ground, from which the vineyard takes its name, is perfect for the ripening of these small bunches of grapes. The stones warm up through the day and release then- heat back into the soil at night, ensuring a prolonged growing season. Coupled with the cool coastal climate, this provides ideal growing conditions for Pinot Noir. This Pinot is light in colour,
