The discovery of leavening or yeast-type bread was made during early days in the Middle East.  It was always filled with a mystique that lay deeply embedded in the creative tradition of these early cultures.  The flat unleavened bread was quickly replaced by the more palatable light-crusted bread that we know at the present time.

Today we often refer to one variety of bread as the ever popular Sour Dough variety.  Dough is prepared and kept aside to ferment.
