Big Book of Bread

Bread: flour, water, salt. Baked, boiled, fried, griddled... The sustenance of the poor and the rich for millennia. The domestic nourishment and national pride of countries and cultures throughout the world.

The Big Book of Bread explores the links between bread and the boundaries of culture and nationality, and offers delicious recipes for recreating loaves from across the globe. Almost every country has its own breads, each with its own individual character but often sharing a common relative.
