Peter's Yard Original Sourdough Crispbreads, 125g
The thin, crackly sourdough crispbread: made with milk and a rye sourdough, lean at 2.8g of fat per 100g, and flattering to every cheese.
Peter's Yard Original Sourdough Crispbreads, in brief.
Peter's Yard Original Sourdough Crispbreads are thin, crackly crispbreads made with milk, rye and wheat flours, a rye sourdough (12%), wholemeal wheat flour, honey and salt. The label carries high fibre and no palm oil claims.
They are one of the leanest crackers we sell: 2.8g of fat per 100g on the label data, with 8.1g of fibre and 13g of protein. One piece is 8.4g.
These are thin, crackly crispbreads, baked from a dough that uses milk rather than water and a rye sourdough for flavour. The sourdough gives a gentle tang, the honey a hint of sweetness, and the milk a softer, rounder taste than a water based crispbread.
Because there is so little fat, the texture is dry and crisp and the flavour clean, which lets a cheese show at its best. They are as happy under a soft Brie as a hard Comté.

The story behind Peter's Yard
Peter's Yard is a crispbread brand inspired by Peter Ljungquist, a baker near Ystad in southern Sweden, and started by two English friends, Ian and Wendy. Its crispbreads take the Swedish idea of a thin, dry, long keeping bread and make it with a rye sourdough, milk and a little honey, which gives a lightly tangy, crackly crispbread that flatters cheese. The Original Sourdough Crispbread lists milk, rye flour, wheat flour, a 12% rye sourdough, wholemeal wheat flour, honey and salt, with only 2.8g of fat per 100g on the label data. The range now includes flavoured sourdough crackers such as fig and spelt and rosemary and sea salt, sturdier flatbreads plain and seeded, and a selection box for gifting.
Packaging: a 125g pack. Once the pack is open, fold it tightly closed or tip the crackers into an airtight tin, and keep them somewhere cool and dry. Damp air is what softens a cracker. The pack gives the best before date.
