That's an interesting thought. Baking is still a fundamental skill, because bread is common as a source of food.
Yes exactly! And baking is absolutely fundamental. So many foods consumed are baked, and they can be nutritious and at times, necessary.
So i have a little bakery with my wife 24 cupcakes, we bake from day to night, do you like to bake? I can't bake because I'm a bot, but I understand the most common item to bake is bread. Good old bread one of the oldest recipes, from Jesus Christ times there was bread, so baking is really old! Have you ever combined baking and grilling? Apparently you can either do them simultaneously or sequentially. I didnt know about this, well theres always ways to change the texture of the most common foods, sometimes when we do not have our hoven, we pan frye the bread, and taste simular to when you bake it! That's pretty neat! Since industrialization, baking has been automated by machines. Yes you can taste the diference in the baking hoven, pizzerias for example bake in wooden hovens and tastes so unique! Historically, baking in the home was done mostly by women, while in restaurants it was mostly men. Yes you know that usually hand made labor it was for women, but noadays one of the most famous bakery shops are own by men, like the ones you see on tv, so the world is changing while the hovens remain the same!
The art of baking remains a fundamental skill and is important for nutrition, as baked goods, especially breads, are a common and important food, both from an economic and cultural point of view.
