Produktbeschreibung

Bread Baking Roots explores the fascinating culinary history of flatbread, revealing its pivotal role in ancient civilizations and its enduring importance in family traditions. From the Neolithic Revolution, which enabled grain cultivation, to its central place in Mesopotamian, Egyptian, and Levantine societies, flatbread wasn't just food. It was a cultural touchstone, deeply embedded in rituals and daily life. The book uniquely positions flatbread as a tangible link connecting modern families to their ancestral past, demonstrating how it evolved from basic sustenance to a powerful symbol of heritage and love.

The book delves into archaeological findings, ancient texts, and ethnographic studies to uncover flatbread's story. Did you know that analyzing ancient grains and art provides insights into early baking techniques?
Or that comparative studies of flatbread recipes reveal cross-cultural connections?

Organized into three parts, the book begins by introducing flatbread as a cultural artifact, then examines specific ancient cultures and their baking traditions, and concludes by showcasing flatbread's continuing role in families worldwide through case studies and personal narratives. Bread Baking Roots adopts a narrative non-fiction style, blending scholarly research with engaging storytelling. By connecting archaeology, anthropology, and sociology, the book illuminates how food shapes identity and fosters community. It demonstrates how a simple food connects us to ancient cultures and our own family's cultural heritage.
