Slow Food Canada explains it best in terms of bread made with Red Fife "… a hay yellow crumb, with an intense scent of herbs and vegetables colored with a light acidity. The nose has notes of anise and fennel, and in the mouth, the bread is unexpectedly rich with a slightly herby and spicy flavor.” We've also heard that it lends a tender texture and a nutty, cinnamon-esque nuance to baked goods. Sounds fantastic to us!
