My daily bread
As far a cuisine goes, Ukraine missed the boat. There are however a few redeeming factors, bread being one of them. Fortunately, it would seem that they haven’t figured out how to screw up great tasting bread with the aide of modern technology such as preservatives and emulsifiers. The bread we usually get here is the Baton (a white loaf) and Ukrainian Style (the round, dark rye loaf). It is the kind of bread you can eat on it’s own, or with butter, day after day. This is due largely, I assume, to the use of sour dough technique which yields a far tastier bread then any found wrapped in plastic in Australia. It costs no more than 25-50 cents per loaf.
