Bread Recipes

Bread and Pizza RecipesBread is a staple food which is prepared by baking, steaming, or frying dough. Bread consists minimally of flour and water; salt is present in most cases; and you usually use a leavening agent such as yeast. 

Breads may also contain some amounts of sugar, spices, fruit (such as raisins, pumpkin or bananas), vegetables (like onion or zucchini) nuts and seeds (such as caraway, sesame or poppy seeds), which are often used for decorative and flavoring purposes. There are a wide variety of breads and preferred varieties often vary from region to region.

Bread Recipes

Fresh bread is prized for its taste and texture, and retaining its freshness is important to keep it appetizing. Bread that has stiffened or dried past its prime is said to be stale. 

Today's modern bread is often wrapped in paper or plastic film, or stored in airtight containers such as a breadbox to keep it fresh longer. Bread that is kept in warm moist environments is prone to the growth of mold. It actually becomes stale more quickly in the low temperature of a refrigerator, although by keeping it cool, mold is less likely to grow.
