The importance of bread in daily life

Bread is one of the basic foods in our Mediterranean diet and cuisine. There are people who prefer the crust and who prefers the crumb, but everybody loves this typical product of our tradition.

Even if in the last year the price of bread has continuously increased, a lot of families did not want to renounce to have bread every day on their table. This food sector, in fact, is one of the fundamental sectors for our nutrition; bread is a food rich in carbohydrates, in balanced diet carbohydrates should provide about 50-55% of the whole calories. Bread, as all food taken one by one, is not a complete food; it is rich in fibers, particularly the integral one. So some people have decided to learn how to make bread at home, of course they do not use the usual bakery machines, but they satisfy themselves with smaller and less refined appliances. And sometimes results are not exactly how expected but leave a lot to be desired.

In a modern bakery, there are a lot of machines used every day, according to every moment of the production there is a precise machine, as the mixer or divider, or doser and blender, but also the different types of ovens that can be used. And the same applies to pastry machines, so it is obviously not possible to improvise a bakery or a pastry. The pastry is an art that belongs specifically to the European culinary traditions and to the ones generated from it, such as American or Creole. High Middle Age represents an essential step towards the concept of bakery as it is intended today, thanks to the flourishing trade that brought several key ingredients to the courts of nobles. Among these can sugar, cinnamon, ginger, rice, sesame seeds, nutmeg and clove. From the half of 16 century a real taste revolution had started, from here Europeans brought a lot of completely new ingredient, including cocoa, destined to find a place of absolute importance in modern bakery, but also coffee, sugar and vanilla. It is from here that also the art of pastry had assisted to a real huge expansion, defining its autonomy from the gastronomy as globally intended.

In Italy every region has its own bakery tradition. There are, in fact, a lot of types of bread typical of some specific Italy region, as for example the “michetta or “rosetta”, a round shape bread, with a flat base and the typical star shape incision, it is empty in the inside due to the prolonged leavening of the dough. It is original from Lombardy. Or the “biova”, originally from Piedmont, which is produced by a long-leavened dough, but with less water. The crumb is usually very soft. Or even the rye bread, the most widespread in South Tyrol, flavored with cumin seeds.

Then also the “ciriola”, of Roman tradition, has an elongated shape and a very soft crumb inside, while the “coppia”, from Ferrara, has a particular shape with four points and is made of hard dough. It has almost no crumb.

We also have to refer to the "carasau" or "paper music", the ancient Sardinian tradition, it appears as a thin disk of light color, crisp and crumbly, and it is obtained with semolina and very little leavening. Often now these regional breads can also be found in other regions, but if you do not find them but you want to taste them, you will surely find some in the numerous bread fairs.

CATACLYSM: The War on the Eastern Front 1941-45 List Price: $59.95 Sale Price: $37.77 You save: $22.18 (37%)   Eligible for free shipping! Availability: Not yet published See Reviews For This Product Description It has been more than 60 years since the end of the Second World War, a conflict that shaped the second half of the Twentieth Century. The significance of the war, and its relevance to the lives of so many, has generated a legacy of published material on the topic sufficient to fill a library. Yet disproportionately few publications deal exclusively with the true cauldron of the conflict - the brutal and uncompromising war between Germany and the Soviet Union; and fewer still attempt to provide, in a single volume, a comprehensive overview of that war from the commencement of Operation Barbarossa to the last battle in the rubble-strewn streets of Berlin. Drawing on information from Soviet archives that have only become available since the collapse of the Soviet Union, 'Cataclysm: The War on the Eastern Front 1941-1945', is unquestionably the most successful attempt so far to achieve that goal. As Winston Churchill acknowledged, the Red Army tore the guts out of the Wehrmacht, and the story of how that happened, a story in which the events at Stalingrad were just one part, deserves to be told with greater frequency and to be understood more widely. From the enormous amount of detailed information currently available on the military struggle on the Eastern Front, condensing the events of a war of such scale and duration into a succinct narrative in a meaningful and balanced way has long been a challenging task. Yet the mortal conflict between Hitler's Germany and Stalin's Russia is deserving of the effort. 'Cataclysm' focuses on the ground fighting along the Eastern Front, for it was overwhelmingly the ground war that determined the outcome of the conflict. With the aid of concise supporting maps, the book provides a clear and comprehensive account of the ebb and flow of a four-year long conflict conducted across a thousand miles of frontline in the vast region between the Elbe and Volga. Describing the conflict in a predominantly chronological manner, the book's narrative nonetheless maintains an easy, flowing style, relating with clarity the sequence of events as the interwoven campaigns on different sectors of the long frontline unfolded. For anyone wishing to understand the war in on the Eastern Front, 'Cataclysm' is essential reading, and the book will prove to be an invaluable addition to any bookshelf.
