Bap

Bap is a soft bread roll that’s enjoyed throughout the United Kingdom, but its origins are Scottish. This bread roll is often made with a combination of flour, milk, sugar, salt, yeast, and vegetable oil or butter (or lard). In Scotland, a bap is a favorite morning bread roll. Baps look similar to hamburger buns, and they’re used in a similar manner. The bread roll is ideal for sandwich fillings such as sausages, bacon, or boiled beef. Generally, baps taste the best when buttered or topped with meat. In Scottish pubs, baps are often served with Lincolnshire sausages and caramelized onions. There’s also a popular fish filling – battered and fried mackerel fillets are served in a bap with tartare sauce for a sandwich called mackerel bap, but beware – mackerel is no longer considered sustainable, so decide for yourself if you want to indulge in it or not.
