White Bread

Cultural Context

White bread has its roots in ancient civilizations, evolving through centuries to become a staple in British households. Traditionally made with refined flour, it symbolizes comfort and simplicity, often used for sandwiches or toast. Today, while artisanal and whole grain breads gain popularity, classic white bread remains a beloved choice for its soft texture and versatility.
