Today's Google Doodle honors Germany's distinct bread tradition with a stunning artwork. Bread was not invented in Germany; it was invented in ancient Egypt, but Germany has become an international hub of baked foods and pastries over time. Today, the skill of baking bread in Germany combines old practices with new elements.

Germany was made up of many diverse settlements with their own traditions and cuisines during the Middle Ages, but after these territories were unified under a common flag, the European nation developed a special affinity with bread and bakery products.

German breads are significantly richer in flavor

Because of the ingredients used to make it, bread prepared in Germany is significantly richer in flavor, thicker in texture, and darker in color, including wheat, rye, barley, spelt, oats, millet, corn, rice, and potato starch flour, all of which are grown in the country's varied environment.

Another distinguishing element of German bread is the presentation: it is baked in regional ovens with specific flavors and is painstakingly cut, folded, and braided to create a beautiful appearance.

3200 different varieties of breads exists in Germany

There are currently over 3,200 different varieties of bread in Germany, according to the German Institute of Bread. Bread is so significant to the culture that it is even used to denote the time of day: for instance, dinner is referred to as "Abendbrot" (bread of the evening), while breaks at work are called "Pausenbrot" (break bread).

Baking has played a significant role in German culture

Since the Middle Ages, baking has played a significant role in German culture and has developed over time. Germany's bread culture has persevered because of the master-apprentice system, which guarantees that knowledge and customs are transmitted and upheld for future generations.
