JOURNEY TO BREAD

“Journey to Bread” is a shortened version of the book-album which is the seventh in the series “Belarusian Cultural Heritage”. It is a kind of navigator for a bread tour through Belarus. For the first time, the reader has an excellent opportunity not only to become acquainted with the history of the country’s baking, but also to trace the path from a grain thrown into the ground to a fragrant loaf, which is reflected in the beliefs, customs, and festivals of the Belarusians. Turning the pages of this richly illustrated edition, you will visit many interesting places — modern museums of bread and bakeries, as well as the bakers themselves — the carriers and successors of old traditions. The recipes presented here will help you bake bread at home for your family.
