## Ingredients
At its core, bread is made of four ingredients: flour, water, salt and
some sort of leavening. It’s possible to make bread without salt,
though saltless bread, to most palates, tastes a lot like cardboard.
There are even those who eliminate leavening, though at this point,
the loaf doesn't really taste like what most of us would expect from a
loaf of bread.
One can add all sorts of other ingredients, of course, from
sweeteners, to nuts, fruits and fats – but the essence of any bread
comes down to these basic four.
