Whether a sweet nan from India, a chewy New York bagel, or a rich olive-stuffed Italian crust, the simple fact is that bread is the essential, staple item in all diets and on all menus the world over. Flour, water and yeast -- that simple miracle formula from which a million variations have evolved throughout history. The desire for bread is so fundamental and familiar that the aroma of a freshly baked loaf straight out of the oven can produce the most intense of emotional reactions, unlocking childhood memories and stimulating the appetite. After all, from the birth of civilization onwards bread has kept us going, prevented us from starving, and has come to literally symbolize life. Bread is the food used so often in religious ceremony, its sharing a gesture of love and kinship with fellow man. Bread is delicious; this book, whilst guiding you through the cultural history and traditions of bread and baking -- with recipes -- is also a sumptuous feast for the eyes, with pages of mouth-watering photographs.
