(There is some confusion about the "fitches" called for in the original
recipe. Apparently, the fitches referred to an herb. Cumin, fennel and
nutmeg have all been suggested as the mis-translated "fitches." Take
your pick or leave themn out. Any of them will add a unique taste to
your homemade bread.)

Debra Ridings researched fitches and it turned out to be Spelt. Or, she
said
you could use rye flour, however rye has a stronger flavor.
