The Act Of Breaking Bread

Bread is more than just food—it’s history, tradition, and connection. In this episode, we dive deep into the significance of bread across cultures, its biblical roots, and why making bread at home can be such a meaningful practice. We’ll also explore the difference between highly processed bread and nourishing, traditionally made bread, plus share thoughts on sourdough, yeast breads, and finding balance in your own kitchen. What You’ll Learn in This Episode: The significance of bread in history and culture The truth about modern bread vs. traditionally made bread Why homemade bread, even a simple yeast loaf, is better than store-bought How bread making can slow us down, ground us, and connect us to past generations Practical ways to embrace bread making in your own home LINKS FOR THIS EPISODE: My Favorite Sandwich Bread Cinnamon Star Bread Biscuit Recipe Force of Nature: My absolute favorite non-toxic cleaning product Use code ERYN40 for 40% off Force Of Nature Bundles + Free Shipping!
