Following on from another post ... What do you call the end of a loaf? I've always called it the heal .... Everyone I know calls it a crust... Is there any more?

The crust. It's the best bit of the loaf, especial if the loaf is a crusty one.

Crust
but Scottish relatives call it the heel.

Growing up they were always knobbies! I don’t really call them anything now!

Thegoodthere · 27/04/2019 15:24

Wow, I never new this was a thing! I just call them the ends of the bread (cultured, me)

Thegoodthere · 27/04/2019 15:24

I call it the slut - because everyone touches it but nobody wants it
