Introduction
Bread is
a staple food prepared from dough of flour and water, usually by baking. Bread is served in various forms with any meal of the day. It is eaten as a snack, and used as an ingredient in other culinary preparations, such as sandwiches, and fried items coated in bread crumbs to prevent sticking. Bread can be served at many temperatures; once baked, it can subsequently be toasted. It is most commonly eaten with the hands, either by itself or as a carrier for other foods. Bread can be dipped into liquids such as gravy, olive oil, or soup; it can be topped with various sweet and savoury spreads, or used to make sandwiches containing meats, cheeses, vegetables. Bread is used as an ingredient in other culinary preparations, such as the use of breadcrumbs to provide crunchy crusts.
Good bread is the most fundamentally satisfying of all foods.
