About Plain bread

Plain bread, a staple food in many cuisines, is prepared using simple ingredients like flour, water, yeast, and salt. It has roots in various cultures, from ancient Egyptian flatbreads to European loaves baked in wood-fired ovens. The nutrition profile of plain bread depends on the type of flour used; whole grain varieties tend to have more fiber and nutrients compared to white bread made from refined flour. It provides carbohydrates, which serve as a quick source of energy, and may contain small amounts of protein depending on the recipe. While plain bread is versatile and widely enjoyed, it can be high in sodium and low in essential nutrients unless fortified. Opting for whole grain versions can enhance its health benefits by supporting digestion and heart health. Moderation is key to incorporating plain bread into a balanced diet.
