Do you ever dream of fresh ingredients, wholesome flavors, or aromatic scents? Do you ever wish you were in a reminiscent cobblestone village square on baking day? Do you ever crave simplicity?

If you are guilty of any of these, then you have what it takes to become a baker. More specifically, a flatbread-baker! Most people don't realize the value in handmade products, or even bread. Luckily, you do - or will do!

Most people think of old fashioned artisan bread as a nice big loaf of crusty white bread, but flatbread out dates yeasted breads. In ancient Mesopotamia (modern day Iraq) the Sumerians discovered that edible grains could be mashed into a paste and then baked/hardened into a flatbread. Tortillas to matzohs, flatbread has evaded just about every culture.

Not only is their a lot of culture in flatbread, there is room for innovation in the kitchen. Flatbread provides a basis or an addition to spruce up any meal. Believe me... Anything goes with flatbread!
