I Am Hopeless In The Kitchen,

if I cooked or should it be baked some bread rolls,


I am sure that they would turnout like these above, photograph MEN Media,, but as it happens in Scotland that would not be a bad thing, they are a Scottish delicacy known as well-fired rolls,

or heavy-fired rolls, they are supposed to have an overcooked, black crust and be airy and slightly chewy inside, and while some people describe them as addictive, delicious, or spot-on, their charred exterior puts a lot of people off,

I always grab a dozen when in Hyde and the oven bottoms for my son and husband but they tried one and now are addicted,” one woman commented on the photo, “They are called well-fired rolls and they are actually really nice,” someone else wrote, “I’m Scottish and these are well-fired rolls and they sell out by 8 am back home. My favorite with square slice and brown sauce,” another fan commented, “Definitely carcinogenic. Be careful,” one person wrote. In 2018, Scotland’s food standards agency did warn consumers to limit their consumption of heavy-fired buns due to the presence of a cancer-causing chemical known as acrylamide, on the other hand, according to Cancer Research, “acrylamide from burnt toast, burnt chips, or crispy potatoes is unlikely to increase the risk of cancer. Good quality studies have not shown that acrylamide from food causes cancer in humans.” all I know is that if I cook toast and it turns out like the buns above, in the bin it goes!
