Frequently asked
How long has bread been a staple food in human history?
Bread is one of humanity's oldest foods, dating back over 30,000 years to when people discovered that crushed grains could be mixed with water and cooked. Ancient Egyptians are famous for developing the first leavened bread around 4,000 BCE, using wild yeast and creating the fluffy loaves we recognize today.
What makes a bread loaf rise and become fluffy?
Bread rises because of yeast, a tiny living organism that eats sugars in the dough and produces carbon dioxide gas. These bubbles get trapped in the dough's gluten network, creating that airy, light texture. Heat from the oven then sets the structure, giving bread its final shape and crust.
Why do bakers score the top of bread loaves?
Bakers cut decorative patterns called scores into the top of loaves before baking. These cuts allow steam to escape during cooking and help the bread expand upward rather than sideways. The scores also create those beautiful rustic patterns and help control how the bread tears naturally while baking.
