Actually thank you for this. I’ve always heard of the molasses flood but it never made sense. I mean, how can you drown in molasses, that’d take an insane amount of…oh near a million gallons? 15 foot high wave?! It was HOT?!

Similar things happen today. Just look at how one ship getting stuck cost the entire world 60 billion dollars. In 50 years, kids will be talking about how silly that is. Big events only seem big with hindsight or seem more ridiculous the further out you get from them. Like when America almost accidentally nuked North Carolina. It seems funny now but no one was laughing when the bomb fell and two out of three safety mechanisms failed. Just look at how many comedies have been made about horrific events.

Hey Mickey, Bostonian here. I was raised primarily just over the bridge from the North End and grew up eating this. I’d actually advise against adding more of the baking soda. A modern recipe might call for more, but this isn’t a modern recipe. This was (and still is) intended to be eaten largely as a meal, a couple slices for breakfast as an example. It’s something you’d have as a bedtime snack too. This bread is supposed to be quite dense. You heat before serving and butter is a common topping but cream cheese is equally popular. If you’re doing cream cheese let the butter melt, then add the cream cheese on top. It’s a dense bread so you don’t want to eat it dry, best to add the butter and lots of it.

Most of my immediate relatives are from CHelsea, Massachusetts, where some random corners of the town still smell of molasses on a hot summer day. And they stockpile of molasses was meant to be used to make rum for the "triangular trade". (slaves, sugarcane, rum, slaves). And molasses is not only a key ingredient in Boston brown bread, but also in Boston baked beans, which my great-grandmother was famous for. (You're supposed to eat brown bread with baked beans.) And many other "colonial" recipes rely on molasses and baking soda for sweetness and leavening.)

@SparksMcDougal 10 месяцев назад

As a Massachusetts native and someone born in Boston, we had this to try in history class while learning about the molasses incident but it was also common, though a fading tradition to have this style of bread at a seasonal meal usually during the colder months. I myself have not had this in ages but I would love to try this again especially with a historical recipe such as this. I've been loving the content that you've been making for some time now, keep it up!

@markcollins2666 8 месяцев назад

In my neighborhood, in the 60's we had hot dogs, baked beans and brown bread, every Saturday night. Everyone did. Usually B and M baked beans and brown bread. Which was just fine, they are both good examples of the real thing. But it was unwavering, inflexible. I used to imagine that it was some kind of State law.

@heroicfool8541 Год назад

As a resident of the Boston area, I love it when history people mention the Molassacre. The phrase "slower than molasses in January" was coined after the incident, though I bet most people who use it don't know how fast it was actually traveling.

@SimuLord Год назад

My great-grandmother lived in the North End as a child. She and her sister would have been walking right by the tank on the way home from school for lunch when the tank let go. She always told the story that her younger sister got in to some sort of trouble that morning and if it wasn't for the teacher keeping her sister after they got let out to speak to her, they would most likely have been killed. She also told stories about them collecting molasses from the leaks and how the city would smell of molasses on hot days. I also loved watching in fascination as my mother would open the can of B & M Brown bread as a kid! You just don't expect to see bread when you open a can!

Fun fact: aluminum cans are lined with plastic to keep the metal from reacting with the food. Most plastic lining contains BPA as a plasticizer (expensive organic brands may use BPA-free liner, and always brag about it on thr label). BPA leeches into fat more effectively than water, and does so most effectively when heated. So putting this recipe in that type of can with butter against the plastic and steaming for hours is a great way to get some really nasty stuff into your food. Using a mould, tin or pan designed for baking is by far the safest way to go. Just wanted to put this here for anyone considering making this recipe.

max-thanks for covering brown bread. i grew up on the stuff. sometimes made with dates, usually currants or raisins. i’ve seen it with some honey added. we always ate it with fish cakes and beans, but also always had it in the house. i loved to butter it and grill it in a skillet, then spread with some cream cheese.

In the late 70s my dad was a truck driver for a company in southern California named holly sugar. The area we lived in was where my mom grew up in imperial county. It was a town named brawley down by salton sea. Well that area was huge on three things. Agriculture,cattle culture and off roading culture. They grew lots of sugar beets there. Well one of the things the company made from their sugar refining process was molasses. That's what my dad hauled. Big tanks of molasses. It was sent to animal feed companies as an additive. But the weird part was it was awesome molasses that could have easily been sold in stores. Very pure and tasty. There were times my pops would jump on the tank and scoop out a few jars to bring home. Nothing the company would miss. Maybe a gallon at most. We used it for baking on pancakes and waffles.my uncle put it in his coffee. My aunt used to also make molasses chew candy. It was so good. I've had brown bread and it's good. My mom made it but she'd add raisins for a bit more sweetness and nutritional value for me bro and sis. A slice of brown bread with butter, yummy.

I must say I had a bit of a chuckle when you said that the molasses may have sweetened the tea in Boston Harbour. I can't imagine how terrible this disaster was and how horrifying it was for the people and animals caught up in it. The cleanup must have been like an endless, grueling task.

These fun experiments that kids will enjoy and remember are an importart part of childhood science education. You need to get kids hooked on how much fun science can be, before you get them bogged down in physics equations. I remember an early teacher like your grandmother (maybe year 4 or 5, I was about 9/10 years old) bringing a canister of liquid nitrogen and a couple of bouquets of roses into class. We froze the roses (1 at a time, with her standing right next to the person doing it), and we each got one to take home until it defrosted. We also smashed a few. They become incredibly brittle once flash frozen. She also told us about the panspermia theory of life spreading from one world to another. She kindled my fascination with science, and I ended up studying physics in college. Took a career change, and I'm now a butcher, but I am still in love with science, and keep learning more in my own time just for fun.

@@Pro_Butcher_Amateur_Human Yes.

My Nana used to bake bread in a can and yes, she used walnuts and raisins. I'm not sure if she used sugar because Pop couldn't have too much sugar.

The original "Laurels Kitchen" cookbook, a vegetarian staple from the '70s recommended baking bread in cans because it would allow you to bake 4 loaves at once in a regular oven. They used the large cans that fruit juices come in. In the new edition that came out in the early '90s, they mention that they no longer did this because the solder in the seam of these cans can contain lead.

Boston didn't have a monopoly on methods to make bread. A more logical explanation is that many families didn't have the money to buy dedicated cake pans during the depression.

They did it down south, too and families that I know for a fact that never stepped foot anywhere in the northern half of the country and long before Ellis Island existed.

Max, this was great. All of my childhood from the late 40-s to 1960 we had Boston baked beans (with a chunk of salt pork and molasses) baked in a brown pot and brown bread every Saturday night dinner. My mother, who cooked almost everything from scratch actually did buy the brown bread in a can as shown. I'm guessing she didn't like it, but she did make Indian Pudding which might make a good episode. I found a recipe in my 1953 edition of Joy of Cooking. It has 3/4 c molasses and 3 T of sugar; her note says you can use 1 c of molasses and no sugar. My dad was born and brought up in Haverhill, MA. He was born in 1905 so surely he must have heard about this and I don't recall him ever mentioning it.

Also Max, a similar round bread you might want to investigate the history of is Blackpool milk roll - it's baked in a special ridged mould which creates ridges indicating where to slice the bread for sandwiches. It was created for landladies of boarding houses in Blackpool for feeding holidaymakers staying there for their annual week's holiday - in working-class parts of the UK entire factories and other workplaces would all go on holiday at the same time and go to the same resorts, with Blackpool being popular with workers from NW England and Glasgow. Special trains would be put on to take the workers to and from the resorts.

I'm gonna add onto this by suggesting you make sure there is no adhesive or glue from labels on the outside of the cans. It leaves a residue on your pot (the glue melting and being dispersed by the boiling water) that takes a bit to get off. It does come off, but saves the mess.

Brown bread in a can was part of our weekly meal rotation because it was so cheap. My parents would make boiled hotdogs with baked beans and brown bread from a can because we couldn't afford much else growing up.
