I have found that Bread is a distinctly European obsession. My American partner just doesn't get it, nor do my Asian and African friends.

It's so satisfying to have a giant sandwich with meat veg and cheese or indeed just bread fresh from the oven dripping with butter. It's the most versatile thing imaginable and it's made from fucking grass!

Jesus Christ I fucking love bread!

Classic eurobrain right here.

A staple food for basically every civizilization on the planet is "distinctly european".

I'm not saying other cultures don't have bread, that'd be fucking r*****d. I'm saying that bread is not as integral a part of other cultures.

[-] Plastic_Ramses@lemmy.world 8 points 7 months ago

Which also is a pretty dumb thing to say.

Americans will understand if you use a more specific word for the type of bread, instead of just "bread", as that makes them think of prepackaged sliced bread.

[-] Colour_me_triggered@lemm.ee 2 points 7 months ago

Mate, it doesn't matter what form the bread takes. It's the concept of bread which is divine.

Stop. Fucking. Grass. To. Make. Bread.

[-] Quetzalcutlass@lemmy.world 3 points 7 months ago

Whole wheat? No, wheat hole.

Idk about Africa but Asians fucking love bread. Have you ever been to an Asian bakery? Oh the glorious carbs…

[-] Colour_me_triggered@lemm.ee 4 points 7 months ago

Ok like Indians make a lot of bread, but it tends to be various types of flat bread. Don't get me wrong I'll demolish a peshwari naan in about 3.76 seconds but it's not as versatile as a good crusty loaf.

[-] NorthWestWind@lemmy.world 3 points 7 months ago

You just have the wrong Asian friend. You ever have pineapple bun? No it doesn't have pineapple.

Most of the time it comes with nothing inside it. The crust itself is the tastiest thing, but there are variations, like a big slice of butter, or embedded red bean paste.

[-] Colour_me_triggered@lemm.ee 1 points 7 months ago

The recipes I've seen all use egg, milk and sugar, so I'd argue that they're closer to cake than bread. But it looks fucking tasty and I will be making them soon.

[-] Swedneck@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 7 months ago

asia loves bread lol, ever heard of bao buns/dumplings/shokupan?

[-] Colour_me_triggered@lemm.ee 1 points 7 months ago

Of course i have, and i would argue that bread and bunns are 2 seperate food categories.

[-] ChickenLadyLovesLife@lemmy.world 1 points 7 months ago

it’s made from fucking grass!

I started making my own sourdough bread during COVID because for a while there they didn't have bread or yeast at the grocery stores. I love the fact that the ingredients are just flour, water, salt and starter (which itself is just flour and water and the yeastie beasties). The yeast all dies during cooking and the water is essentially cooked out of it, so sourdough bread is really just flour altered into a really funky form with a bit of salt. I like the added thought that even the flour is just ground-up grass.

[-] Colour_me_triggered@lemm.ee 1 points 7 months ago

I do not have the patience for sourdough. My favourite bread is probably something along the lines of chleb lwowski or the Finnish hard bread Ruisreikäleipä which is rye bread with caraway seeds. It'll fuck up your gums, but it's really tasty.
