Does bread taste bad? Some people like bran, others like Borodinsky, but there is always an interesting species, whose unusual taste will win the hearts of bread gourmets for a long time.
Latvian rye bread
Walking the narrow streets of Old Riga with an empty stomach is not an easy task. Few tourists can resist the pleasant aroma of freshly baked Latvian pastries. So maybe you shouldn't resist? You can just go on a walking tour of the capital of Latvia, especially since its compulsory program includes tasting the famous rye bread. Do not hesitate and take a look at at least one of the Riga bakeries. A huge number of types of bread are baked here, and Latvian rye bread with a sweet and sour taste will be loved for a long time. For those who wish, some bakeries offer a baking workshop where apprentice bakers can bake their first loaf.
Tiger bread from Holland
The famous Dutch "tigerbrod", which got its unusual name because of the crust, which looks like the coloring of a tiger's skin, does not get tired of surprising tourists. Unique in appearance and taste, the bread crust is obtained thanks to a secret watering, the recipe of which includes rice flour, local yeast, oil, salt and sugar. This cheerful bread has gained special love from the Americans, who call it either tiger bread or Dutch crunchy.
German bread Pumpernickel
Where this difficult-to-pronounce name came from is still not clear even to the Germans. They say that in the Middle Ages, the devil himself was called this word, but what he had to do with bread is unknown. Rye Pumpernickel is known for adding unmilled grain to it, and for obtaining a beautiful brown color, a few drops of beet syrup are poured into the flour.
French baguette
In Paris alone, half a million freshly baked baguettes are bought every day. Who doesn't love amazing French bread - crispy on the outside and soft on the inside! Bakers from France have infected the whole planet with love for their long baguettes. Love is love, but not everyone knows that a French baguette cannot be cut, it is only broken by hand.
Bread for schoolchildren in Norway
Schoolchildren in Norway are very lucky because the local school bread is not what everyone imagines, but buns with delicious custard. It turns out that long ago, it was the round little buns sprinkled with powdered sugar that caring Norwegian parents gave to their children every day when they went to school. There is a very appropriate joke here that the local school bread evokes love from the first bite - everyone who once tasted this sweet bun will never be able to refuse it.
