This bread mix arrived today and I immediately pulled out the 25 year old Breadman TR560 my mom had passed down to me years ago that I had never used until this day. As my family has been on a quest to find a suitable replacement limpa for our traditional Christmas Eve smörgåsbord after the abrupt closure of Alpine Market in Torrance, California earlier this year, this was an important moment. It's been the hardest part of Christmas dinner to find an acceptable substitute for! Every bakery we've tried so far (and we've traveled to sample them) has had more rye-heavy limpa where Alpine's had been lighter and sweeter. I dumped the ingredients into the bucket, hit the button, held my thumbs instead of crossing my fingers (it's a Swedish bread, after all), and hoped for the best. Four hours later I popped the loaf out of the machine, cooled it on a wire rack for 20 minutes, and finally sampled it - delicious! Of course it's not exactly the same as Alpine's was, I wasn't expecting it to be, but it's much closer than anything else I've tried. Soft, light, tasty, and easy to make - you just need a little self-control to not eat the whole loaf in one sitting. I'm glad I still have three packets of mix left so I can enjoy fresh, warm limpa all fall - and save Christmas!
