Bread was first made at least 14,000 years ago, and this magical alchemy of grain, yeast, and water has been sustaining people ever since. Today, there is not a country in the world that does not enjoy some form of bread as part of their culinary tradition. The story of bread is the story of civilization – but bread is so much more than a food. It s also a symbol of community and breaking bread a metaphor for shared blessings. The Little Book About Bread is a celebration of this ancient foodstuff in all its fabulous forms. From sourdough to focaccia and from challah to brioche, it s crammed with fascinating history, fabulous quotes and handy hints and tips. It s little, yes – but large when it comes to shouting about the joy of bread in all its many guises.
