The Dawn of Dough
Exploring Breads from Around the World
It all began thousands of years ago, when crushed grains mixed with water met fire and the first flatbreads were born. In ancient Egypt, an accidental fermentation led to fluffy loaves, turning bread into a staple of civilization. From India’s tandoor to Greek clay ovens, baking soon became an art form.
By the Middle Ages, bread fed both the masses and the elite, with hearty loaves for everyday people and soft, rich breads for royal feasts. The Industrial Revolution brought machines, transforming bread into a global phenomenon.Today, bread is more than a food - it's culture on a plate. From tangy sourdough to chewy naan and crusty baguette, every bite tells a story of evolution, resilience, and creativity.
