The history of bread making begins 8 thousand years ago. In the past, people would break the grain with stones and break it into pieces, then add water and form a dough. Then they would spread it on a flat rock and cook it on fire.
Primitive man crushed the grain he gathered, otherwise he could neither chew nor digest when eaten without softening.
It is certain that the people who first developed bread and bakery went through a series of trial and error processes.
The Egyptians enjoyed baking. Moreover, for them, bread was one of the symbols of their life. Bread was so important to the Egyptians that a piece of bread was placed in their graves so that the deceased would not be deprived in their next life. As bread was their main food, they also received their wages as bread. The workers who built the pyramids were given bread in return for their labor. A person’s financial situation was measured by how many loaves of bread he had.
