Bread is Everywhere

Something about French bread seems to allure everyone. Bread is such a symbol of
France and is so deeply established in the country's traditions that visiting a
boulangerie and queuing with the people is truly one of France's great cultural
experiences.
Every day, people of all ages and socioeconomic backgrounds eat bread all across
the world. When it comes to bread baking, France is known as the bread capital of
the world. Like pizza, France is known as the cultural birthplace of fine bread. Bread
has been the primary source of nutrition in France for generations. Their continued
support for bread-making artists is a testament to their dedication to the art form.
When it comes to bread, it's always appreciated for its quality, not because it's
pricey.

Buying bread in a lovely boulangerie is part of the entire French-ness experience for
many tourists to France. But what is it about French bread that makes us all fall in
love with it? Clearly, there's the flavor, but there's also the delightful boulangeries,
baguettes, baskets, and packaging, which are all part of France's gastronomic and
social fabric.
Statistics show that 98 % of French people eat bread every day. One of the most
enduring French experiences is to line up with the locals early in the morning in a
great artisan boulangerie and participate in the everyday life of the largest town or
the smallest village. The aroma of freshly baked bread, the delicate cracking of the
crust as the baguettes cool, an artisan baker's joy as he piles the bread high and
watches the clients' eyes light up. The whole thing is a wonderful experience that
makes us feel something.
Every town in France has an exquisite boulangerie, and the French love to offer their
recommendations for the best bread. The majority of French people consume bread
every day. Bread isn't simply a cliché in France; it's a necessity and something that
most people care about. Bread is taken very seriously in France. Bread is served at
lunch and dinner, though it is not necessarily a baguette; there is a wide variety.
By law, the traditional "baguette" must be baked with wheat flour, water, yeast, and
common salt; artisan French bread must not contain preservatives, which means it
does not last for days like processed bread.It takes time, and they accept it. They get
up very early in the morning so that the bread is ready when the country awakens
hungry. In France, "let them eat bread" has actual meaning, and people expect it to
be available fresh every day. Bread must be supplied to the people in France,
according to a rule written centuries ago.
