Why is bread, which is commonly used as a staple food abroad, so expensive in China?

The bread commonly eaten abroad is not the same thing as the bread in China, there are three kinds of bread materials used as staple food abroad, flour, yeast and a little salt, and after fermentation, it is baked in the oven, and the taste and texture are actually quite similar to steamed bread, but there is a sour taste. In fact, most of the bread eaten in China is toast bread, which is basically eaten as a dessert and snack. Toast bread in the production of a lot of milk and sugar added to the material, after the dough is formed, but also add a lot of butter, knead until the film, in order to make toast bread is very soft taste, the production process is more troublesome, if it is handmade just add butter to knead out of the film it takes 20 minutes, so ** is naturally more expensive.

First of all, let's take a look at the proportion of ingredients added to domestic bread making, high-gluten wheat flour, water, white sugar, margarine, eggs, edible salt, yeast, corn starch, sodium stearoyl lactylate, vitamin C, amylase, calcium propionate, sodium dehydroacetate, edible spices, etc. This does not include making other flavors of bread, so the cost is relatively high. Another reason is that the staple food of our Chinese people is rice and steamed buns, because the bread is only eaten as a snack, and fewer people buy it, so the price will be higher, but in general, the price of bread in our country is okay, but eating bread for a long time will be bad for the body, because there are too many ingredients added to it!

This bread is not the other bread, and the bread we usually eat is generally called Japanese soft dough. It was modified by the Japanese that became popular all over the world as a snack and dessert. The bread that Europeans eat every day is similar to the pancakes we eat in the north to satisfy hunger.

Naturally, things that decorate life are much more expensive than necessities.

Bread making abroad! Due to the quality of the soil, the wheat they produce is only suitable for bread. Their bread does not give us the same domestic method, just like the taste of steamed bread in the north and the south of the country, which is the staple food of steamed bread.

Foreign bread is made with yeast fermentation and a small part of the ingredients for baking, removing a lot of additives added in our country, the cost is reduced, and they will also nutritionally match three meals a day! No harm to the body!

Because it is a staple food, a famous local bakery is not worried about selling at all, breakfast has croissant, chabada, focaccia, lunch can be made into sandwiches for sale. There are also baguettes, sourdough bread, and Brummer blossom bread for dinner. Because of their work, many housewives do not have time to make bread, and often buy enough bread for the whole family for a week in the bakery.

Bakeries rely on volume, and small profits are not a problem.

The bread outside is more expensive than the steamed bun is mainly hype, the location of the bakery, the area, the decoration, etc. are more upscale than the steamed bun shop, of course, the cost has also come up. Although all kinds of fancy bread will increase the cost, it is actually very limited, mainly because of the high cost of the store.

Back to bread, the domestic bread is not eaten three meals a day, so the consumption rate is lower than that of foreign countries, simply put, a foreign baker serves 1000 people a day, and a domestic baker serves 100 people, so if the daily income is the same, then foreign bread should be ten times cheaper than that in China.

For the same commodity, in a market, the greater the consumption, the lower the unit price will be, which is the fundamental reason why the subject feels that foreign bread is lower than Chinese bread**.

Just like why beef in European countries is cheaper than in China, it has something to do with regional culture, but the important thing is that one side of the water and soil raises one side of the people, and the European grassland is more suitable for raising cattle in a large number of pastures, and the European land is very suitable for wheat flour growth, just like the south is suitable for rice, and India is suitable for spice curry and other self-produced and sold cheap.

Because bread is still not popular, and the ingredients used in bread are always more expensive than steamed buns.

Wheat: Of course, the bread layer plus taxes is expensive.

Because people are ordinary bread, and we add this and that additive, can the price not be expensive?

These are pastries, not bread, and a lot of them are Cantonese pastries, which Europeans have never seen.

Do it yourself...You'll find that the cost is about the same as rice.

Foreign staple bread is salty, and yogurt is unsweetened.

I only eat salty baguettes that are more comfortable, and the other sweet breads are swollen and uncomfortable after eating, which is really strange, is there a problem with sweet bread?

China does not sell bread, when all kinds of cakes are bought.

It's like it's cheap.

In the past, it was an old bread, slightly sweet, with a slightly sour taste. Characteristic bread aroma. That's the purest bread in its purest form. I can't find it now. It's all made into snacks, and it shouldn't be called bread.

What's not expensive in this place?

Because bread in the West is solid and cheap, it can be used as a staple food.

Because the bread made in Europe and the United States is used as a staple food, their staple food is to eat bread.

Because the bread in Europe and the United States is different from ours, the bread there will not add as much butter, sugar and other things as we do. Just pure flour, water and yeast or soaking powder.

The bread that is the staple food of the main meal is generally the light kind, just like we eat white steamed buns, and the sweet, salty, and flavorful bread that we like with bells and whistles (like chocolate buns, pineapple buns, butter bread, etc.), which are all desserts......If white bread has no taste, it is a staple food, and it needs to be eaten with side dishes, and it is impossible for Chinese to eat white rice without any side dishes......

Because bread in Europe and the United States is not sweetened and is hard, ours is soft bread with a modifier.

Because the customs are not used, the staple food on their side is bread, and the bread is not the same.

Because Europeans and Americans grew up eating bread, we grew up eating rice.

Because each place has its own eating habits, it is like this.

Because people in Europe and the United States eat bread as their staple food, the bread they make is relatively large.

In order to pursue the taste in Japan, we basically make bread and bread with improvers. The first thing those people buy bread is to see if the bread is fluffy... In fact, the real staple bread is relatively hard and dry. This bread is not the other.

People use real materials, and they don't use baking powder, and the materials are very good.

Because each country has different eating habits, so the staple foods are also different.

Because they eat bread, the staple food! It's like the steamed rice that Chinese eat. They also have dessert bread like Daoxiang Village dim sum in China. Have you ever seen the Chinese use Daoxiang Village as a staple food?

Bread is a dim sum and afternoon tea in China. But for foreigners, bread is a staple food, and it is not surprising to eat bread for three meals a day. Different from our common bread, as a staple food, foreigner bread has a certain hardness, and it is not like a sturdy bread.

It's a matter of habit, and I often take buns, cakes, and bread as staple foods, which are convenient and relaxed, reduce fatigue and relax myself.

I recently bought several generations of Russian rye bread, which is good for breakfast, and I don't like to eat soft and fragrant bread.

A meaningless question, why do we regard steamed rice as a staple food, Chinese and Western eating habits are different ......

Because they are used to eating bread, and they have grown up eating bread since childhood, you say.

Chinese bread is also available... Inexplicable. A bag of milk, a loaf of bread, a breakfast, that's how my middle school came from.

People are steamed buns, and there is no messy seasoning. It's just baking.

Because it's real, there's basically no 7788 stuff with bulking agent.

Because in foreign countries, their bread is generally harder, and it is not as sweet as the bread sold in China, so they will not feel tired because they eat too much. And bread as a staple food is also a last resort.

Because China's steamed bread method is relatively simple, and it uses some coarse grains, it is cheaper than foreign bread.

Mainly because the manufacturing method of steamed bread is very simple, and then the raw materials used are also less, so it is not very high.

In fact, this is related to the local eating habits, like in China, we generally do not eat bread as a staple food. On the one hand, it is because the bread on the market is a little expensive, about five or six yuan for a loaf of bread, and there is no guarantee that you can eat enough. In addition, bread also belongs to the category of sweets, and it is even more unlikely that friends who don't like sweets will regard bread as a staple food.

But it's different in foreign countries, because most of my friends abroad like to eat sweets.

Therefore, their liking for bread is the same as liking sweets, the point is that the ingredients used in the bread made by foreign pastry chefs are better than those made by domestic pastry chefs, and foreign bread is generally made of pure wheat flour, and the taste will of course be more delicious. We all know that when one side of the water and soil nourishes the other side of the people, living in different countries, the local food culture is naturally very different. And the cuisine that appears in different countries is also different.

For example, in Western countries, beef, cheese, fried chicken, steak, etc. are the main dishes, while bread can only be used as a snack in China. For most Chinese foodies, bread is a delicacy that is just the perfect thing to do when you're hungry.

Some of my friends use bread as a morning snack. However, friends in other countries do not do this, and the locals will eat some bread when they enjoy Western food. At this time, some netizens raised a question, that is, why do friends in other countries use bread as the main meal, while friends in China use it as a snack.

Because domestic food is generally used as a staple food, foreigners generally like to eat Western food, bread and milk.

It depends on the eating habits of each country, and their country may like to eat bread.

Steamed bread is also a type of bread, and it's the closest to the original bread, and it's as hard as a stone when it's cold, so to speak, and the northerners grew up eating bread.

The bread that is the staple food abroad is not the same as the dim sum bread we usually eat. Not so sweet, and so oily.
