9 years ago I went to Russia, and for the first time I had Russian white bread. Wow! What a delicious bread! They follow the same basic recipe as the French, flour, water and yeast, but they bake them in the traditional blocky loaf shape with the curved top. In North America I won't touch white bread unless it is genuine French or Italian baking. But even then it is not as delicious as Russian bread. I remember thinking that if this is what they feed people in the Gulag on bread and water, it isn't as bad as I imagined. Kudos to these scientists and lets hope that they can grow a movement for better wheat, grown for the people who eat it, not for agribusiness interests.
