On a recent ride to the city of St Albans,it being just two days from Easter on the Christian calendar, I visited the Cathedral of St Albans. In the refectory they were selling Alban Buns, a 14th century predecessor of hot cross buns, baked with a secret recipe which was first used in the 14th century. The flour for them was milled at the local Redbournbury mill. If you would like to see the mill go to my blog of 17th July 2011. If only I could get hold of that secret recipe!
